Seven years after a disappointing first Switch port, The Witcher 3 returns on Switch 2 via its Remastered version, running smoother and looking sharper in handheld mode. Gamekult asks the hard question in its "Turn Controller" column: should players who've already finished the game go back? Between technical catch-up and unchanged content, this port raises a bigger issue: what's a remaster worth when it only corrects a past mistake?

The Witcher 3 at -50%: CD Projekt's Move Before Witcher 4

The Witcher 3 Remastered: Looting from Horseback Beats Path Tracing
Released Tuesday, September 29 as a free update for owners of the 2015 game, The Witcher 3 Remastered highlights path tracing on PC.

CD Projekt Ditches 15 Years of REDengine for Unreal Engine 5
CD Projekt RED is officially closing the book on REDengine, its proprietary engine used since The Witcher 2 in 2011, to develop The Witcher 4 under Unreal Engine 5. Fifteen years of technical investment consigned to history—a decision that raises questions about both the studio's internal health and its technical ambitions.

The Witcher 3 Remastered: Sharper, But Something's Lost
CD Projekt Red released new comparative screenshots of The Witcher 3 Remastered, showcasing work on textures and lighting. The result is technically cleaner—and that's exactly where the problem lies.

Cyberpunk 2077 Third-Person Mod: The Game-Changer for PC

The Witcher 3 Isn't Perfect, Says Its Own Lead Writer
Marcin Blacha, lead writer of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and now VP of Narrative at CD Projekt Red, breaks the silence: the 2015 RPG is far from the untouchable masterpiece the community has built it up to be. A statement that says as much about the studio's creative humility as it does about the challenge of stewarding a legacy as heavy as Geralt's.

Songs of the Past: Geralt Plus Divides The Witcher Community
Songs of the Past, the highly anticipated The Witcher 3 expansion coming in 2027, is already stirring controversy before launch.

The tension reveals something deeper about how players relate to narrative continuity in a beloved franchise.

Blizzard Entertainment and CD Projekt RED made it official at Gamescom 2026: Geralt of Rivia is invading Sanctuary via Diablo IV, while The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt joins the Battle.net catalog.

The Witcher: Major Release Every Year Through 2028
CD Projekt Red confirmed it during its latest financial results: The Witcher franchise will roll out major releases annually from 2026 to 2028. Three years, three events.
