    The Witcher 3 Next-gen on PS5 is the best version of the game to date. The replay value of The Witcher 3 stood the test of time. As for an 8-year-old game continue to amaze everyone who has or hasn't played it.

    10/10. It was already very good in previous gen. It’s simply perfect now. Give it a try if you have never played it. Replay it if you played it back then.

    Witcher 3 remains one of my top favourite games of all time. I think of it as more than just a video game, its a journey & you get to play as one of the coolest and most badass fictional protagonists of all time, Geralt of Rivia! I'm playing it on PS5 performance mode and it is simply gorgeous. Witcher 3 is truly an unmatched & timeless masterpiece!

    I'm very pleased in my first 20 hours. I never played the first version. The upgrade is nice and this is one of the better open world RPGs I've ever played. I put it pretty far above the horizon series. On par with Skyrim. Nothing touches my beloved elden ring though.

    After seven years, The Witcher 3 is still much better than some of the latest AAA open-world games, mainly due to its unparalleled writing, character development, and gameplay.

    Let's start with the fact that the Witcher 3 is the best in the gaming industry nowadays. Quests in witcher 3 are some kind of the standard. All quests in new open-world games are compared with them and, obviously, the witcher is still unbeatable.
    The only game that is on par with the witcher is rdr 2. Everything else only tries to get closer to the level set by the witcher.

    Someone writes that the game is boring, well, play assassin's creed, clean outposts and grind resources (in single-player), or kill dummies in the call of duty. You are not worthy drinking in kaer morhen, you are not worthy to visit the land of 1000 fairy tales, you are not worthy to have fun at a wedding when your body is controlled by a spirit, you are not worthy to decide the fate of another witcher who slaughtered the entire village and this is just the beginning. Outposts and grind in a single player game is what you deserve
    Someone writes that they are tired of "special editions" of games. I advise them to look at the price of the updated edition of the game. Oh, that a surprise, it's free, how unexpected.
    After so many years it is still the game of the year for me. After hundreds of hours again it is like a fresh breathe to start the new game. I strongly recommend this game for everyone !!!    … Expand

    How does the best game ever made get better? It comes to a new generation of hardware, free of charge. The game is an absolute masterpiece, same as the original Polish novels it’s derived from. Anyone who gives this less than an 8 is probably confused, biased or a troll.

It comes to a new generation of hardware, free of charge. The game is an absolute masterpiece, same as the original Polish novels it’s derived from. Anyone who gives this less than an 8 is probably confused, biased or a troll. You need to experience the full 100+ hours to know what you’re talking about, and many of us have more than once for damn good reasons.

    The addition of 3D audio on PS5 is outstanding. You hear the difference everywhere. When walking through a tavern, you can hear exactly where voices are coming from in a crowd. Fights are more exciting. The graphical improvements are significant, and performance mode seems to be the best experience. Buttery smooth, like they say, which now seems essential for sword fights. Quick Casting is a big improvement upon the original selection wheel. You don’t have to pause or think- just a press and it’s any sign you want without interruption. Walking up to destructible objects and pressing R2 + X for Aard is a pleasure, along with setting things ablaze with Igni. I would have paid for this upgrade in a heartbeat- no exaggeration. I almost want to pay something anyway, to support these massive masterpieces of games. I want to show that this is an investment well worth making so we don’t get smaller, lesser games in the future. Anyway, thank you CDPR for making this free. If you have never played The Witcher III and you’re a fan of RPGs, man are you in for one hell of a ride. Just pay the man.    … Expand

    all the 0s given by same accounts giving Ragnarok a 10 should tell you enough, Witcher 3 Next Gen edition is still miles ahead of Movie games Sony releases and deservedly is the #2 PlayStation game of 2022 after Elden Ring, keep up CDPR.

    Classic game with countless hours of entertainment, and you can't complain about a completely free next gen update for a game that's been on sale for $10 multiple times.

    그래픽도 좋아졌고 한국어 풀 음성 더빙도 되었다.
    거기다가 기존 구매했던 유저들 무료로 업데이트까지
    해주었다. 이정도면 10점 만점 줄수밖에 없음

    I played it a little bit when it came out, but then other releases came out and never went back to it. Then I heard the news about the update for PS5 and installed it again, oh boy… what have I missing, the quests, the story, the world its just amazing and with the new update for Ps5 is simply stunning. Honestly one of the best games ever made…

    Как часть культуры, обожаю игру «Ведьмак 3: Дикая Охота», по истине прекрасный сюжет, в который погружаешься с головой. Конечно бывают не существенные нюансы, но это никак не мешает насладиться игровым процессом.

    This game is beautiful.
    I don't understand why all this hate, they did a really good job. Some people like to play "old" games that are adjusted for newer consoles.

    Great update. Works so good on the PS5
    pro-tip to the seething cuckholds who spam and bomb every game released.
    You are only making your voices more and more irrelevant, every new release proves more and more that userscores and reviews on LE metacritic are a mistake because the reviews are written by troglodytes with brain damage. No matter how much you upvote yourself and downvote    Great update. Works so good on the PS5

    The feeling of happening upon a village in your travels and discovering a whole questline that takes up hours of your time alongside a compelling story fraught with dicey moral dilemmas is truly unmatched, even now.

    The Witcher 3 was already regarded as an RPG all-timer, but this update means that the PS5 and Xbox Series X become incredible places to enjoy it, while PC players get an even more gorgeous game than before. If you've never played it, you're missing out on one of the best games ever.

    There’s not much to give an opinion on here, as much of the change implemented is visual and quality of life. It’s a welcome update, and if it’s been a while since you’ve played or if you’ve just never gotten around to it, now is a great time to do so. The Witcher 3 has been in a good place for a while, but these upgrades further cement it in it’s spot as one of the all-time greats.
