Set to launch on December 14, the update will be free for all owners of The Witcher 3 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms. Last week, CD Projekt Red published a blog outlining some of what it will bring to the game.

“Enhanced with the power of next-gen consoles and modern PC hardware in mind, the upcoming update will feature dozens of visual, performance and technical enhancements, including ray tracing support, faster loading times on consoles, a variety of mods integrated into the experience, and much more,” the blog reads.

CD Projekt Red added that it will also come with “a set of DLCs inspired by Netflix’s The Witcher series, such as new weapons and armor for Geralt and alternative looks for select characters.”

For platforms the next-gen update will not be launching on (PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch), a separate update will still add DLC from Netflix’s Witcher series and “numerous additions and improvements.”

It’s been a busy few months for Witcher fans. In October, CD Projekt Red announced that several The Witcher spin-off games are in the works, along with a “full-fledged” remake of the series’ first game.

Since then, the studio has also revealed the director for its next trilogy of mainline Witcher games.
