The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered boasts upgraded action and marginally better visuals
CD Projekt Red's 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' is receiving a remastered version, building on the success of the original 2015 open-world RPG. The game remains highly influential in the gaming industry for its narrative depth and world-building.
Why it matters
The Witcher 3 is considered a landmark title that set the standard for modern open-world action RPGs.
One of the hottest developers in the world right now is undoubtedly Polish based CD Projekt Red, from their humble beginnings with Witcher 1, to releasing one of the best action roleplaying games the world has seen in 2015 with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt .
The game not only redefined the open world genre, but also set the template and inspired a decade of excellent action RPGs such as Assassin’s Creed Origins and Odyssey , Ghost of Tsushima and the Horizon games. With gamers still playing through the game today (many on their very first playthrough veering off the main path), making a remastered version was a more than a welcome addition, and the best way to play or replay the game.
