A new date has come from CD Projekt for the Witcher 3 PS5 and Xbox Series X update, one of CD Projekt RED’s most beloved games. In a video released Tuesday, the company made new statements about its forward-looking strategies. These included many explanations that shaped, disappointed and excited our expectations. For The Witcher 3 – Wild Hunt, we have a clearer range of dates for the future of the next generation update.
Witcher 3 PS5 and Xbox Series X update on the way
The next generation version of The Witcher 3 will be announced as a standalone product for PC, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. It will also be released as a free update for users who own the game on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC platforms. The update will be releasedin the second half of 2021 .
The Witcher 3 PS5 and Xbox Series X/S port are being developed by Saber Interactive, which was acquired by THQ Nordic parent company Embracer earlier this year, but also makes the game’s Switch port. You can also remember Saber Interactive from Crysis Remastered.
Speaking about the “next generation” PC version in September 2020, Michal Nowakowski, vice president of business development at CD Projekt, told semiconductors that it would include improved visual quality and additional features.
“There will be an update that will add a few extra content as well as visual quality, of course we will not charge users for a patch. They will just download and improve their game, but we don’t want any extra money.”
If the game is installed on your computer, it will simply turn your game into a next-generation experience thanks to an update. We can even call it Witcher 3 Remastered. Kicinski, the company’s president, also told investors that the next-generation version of Wild Hunt was released to try to extend the game’s life cycle. Witcher 3, the second most awarded game in the world , celebrated its fifth birthday in May 2020 and sold nearly 30 million copies.
“The most important thing behind this decision is to prolong the life cycle of the game,” Kicinski said. “The Witcher 3 still sells great, and we believe that updating it equally with the latest games — or games to be released — is a huge advantage in terms of next sales.”
Witcher 3, one of the most popular RPGs, will be available for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S with a new update later this year. I was looking for an excuse to start the eighth time. And what do you guys think? You can express your opinions in the comments.
