During the latest Nintendo Direct, developer CD PROJEKT RED had been on hand with the The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Remastered for Nintendo Switch 2, officially launching September 29.
As previously revealed, the Remastered version is a free upgrade for all owners of The Witcher 3 on the original Nintendo Switch. The new version takes advantage of Switch 2 features while also containing the base game and its two already-released expansions: Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine. New and returning players alike can pre-order the game and add the upcoming expansion Songs of the Past to wishlist now.
The Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game takes advantage of the platform’s dedicated features. With motion controls, players can cast witcher signs, fire a crossbow, toss a bomb, drink a potion, and speed up and stop Roach. Gyro aiming allows for extra precision in combat, and mouse controls also give players who prefer this input a new way to play. Touch screen support also allows for convenient browsing of the in-game map and menus — and also can be used to play Gwent.
The game also takes advantage of the hardware capabilities of Nintendo Switch 2 to improve both performance and visual fidelity, alongside the wide slate of upgrades and improvements coming with Remastered itself. These include graphical and performance enhancements alongside overhauled combat and animations, a completely redesigned skills and character progression system, updated monster behaviors, transmogrification, expanded photo mode and much more.
