Wiedźmin 3: Dziki Gon – Remaster officially launches on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, bringing modern technical features to CD Projekt RED’s 2015 open-world role-playing game.

Gameplay Revisions and Platform Expansions

Beyond visual overhauls, the remaster revamps core mechanics by adding new combat animations, a completely redesigned skill tree, updated Witcher signs, and smoother horse-riding controls. Additional convenience options let players toggle features like auto-loot pickup and weight limits, alongside cross-platform mod support and photo mode enhancements. Gry-online.pl reports that new buyers must purchase the complete package, which bundles the base game alongside the Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions, priced at 74,99 zł during promotional periods across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox stores.
