There is no exact release date yet, but CD Projekt president and joint CEO Adam Kiciński revealed that the update is “on track” and is planned to release during the fourth quarter of 2022. The news was revealed during the company’s latest earnings call on Wednesday, September 7. A leak from a supposed GAME employee suggests the upgrade will arrive on Friday, December 9. The date in question reportedly appeared in an updated listing for the UK retailer’s database. As of writing, though, CD Projekt Red has yet to corroborate. The Witcher 3 for PS5, Xbox Series XS, and PC remaster was originally slated to release in Q2 2022 after a series of delays. Now it looks like we’ll finally get to see Geralt and the gang again in 2022 after all. Upgrade price for The Witcher 3 PS5 Xbox Series X S and PC
The Witcher 3’s upgrade will be free for all owners of the Witcher 3, so PS4 owners can play the PS5 version, and Xbox One owners can play the Xbox Series X version. PC players will also be able to download the update at no cost. The Witcher 3 PS5 Xbox Series X S and PC upgrade new features
The new version of The Witcher 3 is expected to feature ray tracing effects and faster loading times.

The developer has also been working with community modder, Halk Hogan, to include the popular The Witcher 3 HD Reworked mod in the release – suggesting improved textures are likely. Originally teased in September of 2020 by one of the developers, the enhanced version of The Witcher 3 will feature all the trappings of current-gen systems when it comes to 60fps and 4K resolution.

As of now, we don’t know much regarding what exactly the DLC will entail, but it’s new Witcher content, which is always something that gets a warm welcome.
