Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt The Complete Edition Next Gen Update, All We Know So Far

Witcher 3 is often considered to be one of the best games ever made as well as one of the best RPGs of all time. At the first-ever Witchercon 2021, there were many surprises for the fans of the Witcher franchise and one of them was regarding a new update for Witcher 3. It was announced The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition is now scheduled to launch 2021 autumn but that didn’t happen. Here’s all we know about it.

Witcher 3 Complete Edition Delay Update

In October 2021, the devs took to Twitter to announce the delay in release and apologized for the inconvenience and delays. They stated that though it is causing numerous delays, they want to do it right. Owing to the production delays and recommendations of the supervisory teams, CD Projekt Red has postponed the games to the first half of next year.

The delay with Witcher 3 – The Complete Edition is because most of the team was working on Cyberpunk 2077. It had some serious glitches and technical issues which needed to be corrected in the next gen update. They were so many glitches in Cyberpunk 2077, that fans consider it to be a half-baked and unfinished product. So, Cyberpunk 2077’s Next Gen update was released a month ago and they tried their best to fix the game. Unfortunately, the game was too broken to be fixed entirely and is still quite bad.

Anyways now that Cyberpunk 2077 Next Gen update is out, its time for Witcher 3’s next gen update. Although the team is still working on fixing Cyberpunk 2077 entirely, but it expected that Witcher 3 The Complete Edition will roll out sometime around Witchercon 2022 before autumn. This is just a speculation and expected release, so it would be best to wait for some official update.

Witcher 3 Next Gen Update and DLC

As you may know, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition is going to roll out soon for the newer consoles, as well as PC. This would be the next gen update and would make Witcher 3 available to Play Station 5 and Xbox Series X.  The next-gen update will be free for everyone who already owns the game. Also, it would contain some fresh DLC which  will be available for every version of the game (including PS4, Xbox One, and Switch).

The new DLC for Witcher 3 will revolve around the Netflix series version. The Netflix version which features Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia aka The Witcher is mainly based on books but has many similarities to the games. It will not be a full on expansion like Hearts of Stone or Blood and Wine, instead it is described as extra items.

So, we can expect the addition is a new skin for Geralt. This will make him resemble his Netflix actor Henry Cavill. It can also be a set of armor based on what he wears in the show. One thing which fans constantly demanded was for CD Projekt Red to add the song “Toss A Coin to Your Witcher” to Witcher 3. So, there’s a possibility that the DLC includes your favorite song from your favorite bard.
