CD Projekt RED today, as expected, posted a free new generation update in its stream. The Witcher 3which will be released on PC and consoles December 14/December 2022. In particular, the creators promised us a number of visual and technical improvements. We already know we can count on ray tracing support on PC. there will also be support for DLSS 3 or FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.1.which recently enriched Cyberpunk 2077. The developers have even prepared the ability to increase the graphics settings above the existing ultra settings.

On consoles, i.e. at least on PS5 and Xbox Series X, then it will reach traditional choice between two performance modes, where one will let you play at 60fps and the other at 30fps, of course, in exchange for a higher quality spectacle that should be close to ultra graphics settings on PC. Even so, you can expect support for ray tracing or FSR, in addition there will be texture scaling or support for haptic feedback and adaptive triggers of the PS5 controller.

On all platforms the next-gen update will offer support for 4K textures and models, which was partly achieved through the implementation of some custom modifications directly in the game., improved processing of vegetation, reflections or sky, new weather options and several innovations to enrich or improve the gameplay. These include, for example desired photo modewhich at first glance looks a lot like Cyberpunk 2077’s photo mode.

After that, you can activate it in the settings. alternate camera mode, thanks to which, for example, the camera zooms in on Geralt or offers a different view of Klepna while moving. It will also be available additional system for quick application of witch marksthanks to which you no longer have to select individual characters in the radial menu, because they can be assigned to certain buttons or keys, which will receive the function of casting each of the available characters at the moment the specific button is pressed.

Opponents of all these question marks, not only on the Skellige map, will surely be pleased adding a new filter, thanks to which question marks and icons of already cleared activities can be easily removed from the map. Then you may accidentally and organically stumble upon what is hidden under these icons by default.

Those who want to play The Witcher 3 with a controller in their hands will get new options for Geralt’s walking after installing the next-gen update, which at first glance is more of a cosmetic improvement, but other news may have more significance. This is, for example, the function subtitle size scaling, the ability to stop the game even during cut-scenes or improve localization. There will even be support for simplified Chinese in the area of ​​dubbing and subtitles. Then they take it for granted bug fixes in several quests that should show up even if you load an older savein which this task has been violated so far.

Sounds interesting too the ability to partially hide the minimap and the indicator of the current task, which will only show you these UI components if you press or hold a Witcher Sense button or key while simply exploring the game world. It was also taken from Cyberpunk 2077. sharing saved positions across platformsso you can, for example, play The Witcher 3 on PC and continue later on PS5 if you log into the same account on PS5.

We also saw during the stream some new content inspired by the series Witcher from Netflix. We already know that there will be different armor or swords, it was recently revealed that you will be able to create the corresponding items after you get the blueprints in the new side quest.. This seems to take us to the Devil’s Pit in Velen, a place that has hardly been used so far, and in which, by the way, we can find traces of what many fans consider to be pieces of cut or unfinished content. .

We also saw alternate appearance of Marigold, while any alternate character appearance can still be toggled on and off in the in-game menu. But we admit that the appearance of Daisy in the game we do not really like. But we’re guessing it’s better than Ciri’s earlier and rather counterintuitive belly-baring armor, which is as popular as it is among cosplayers. In any case, Nilfgaardian soldiers will also get an alternate look., but unfortunately this addition will apparently be inspired by the show’s first season, which gave us the very infamous Nilfgaardian armor design. However, in the second row, Nilfgaard’s forces looked quite acceptable.

And if we get through the release of a new trailer, which you can see aboveas well as clips of gameplay footage across all platforms included in the live stream – that’s all CD Projekt RED has shown so far. However, more news and some surprises should be expected in the coming weeks., in addition, there should be an official list of changes that the next generation update will bring. But it seems that we will have more than enough reasons to return to the final game story of Geralt of Rivia.
