    This game is LEGENDARY! One of the best games of all time. The story, music, characters, the world, it's all so good! The developers poured so much of their love and passion into this and it absolutely shows.
    Don't hesitate, play this absolute masterpiece!

A perfect game with with load times, and visual bugs.

    A great port, it reases maximum Switch technical specs. Very funny!!! Es increíble ver algo tan complejo en Nintendo Switch, funciona perfectamente. Se justifican sobradamente los recortes en resolución. Éstos no empañan el resultado final.

    Great game with incredible optimisation for Switch. The storytelling is among the top RPG games of all time. And the fact it could maintain such a performance on Switch is crazy.

    However, the graphic and loading time sometimes would really ruin your experience. It is great but I would still recommend you to play on other platforms :(

    I've spent countless hours playing W3 on PS4. So when I bought Switch Lite, W3 was one of the first games I picked for it.
    And boy, what a conversion it is!!! All the detail is there on the tiny screen of Switch Lite, all the light effects, the weather, all of it, and it all runs very smoothly indeed. Well, once I disabled AA, that is. And on the small screen, AA is better off anyways, as    I've spent countless hours playing W3 on PS4.

The ability to transfer save files to and from PC is a masterstroke, and makes for a far more compelling experience. I have the freedom to play the game portably on the Switch wherever I want, alongside the option to (rather seamlessly) transfer my save to PC and continue exactly where I left off with 4K visuals and a higher frame-rate when playing at home. It's a truly wonderful combination that I hope more developers take advantage of.… Expand

    The Witcher 3 is not a perfect game but it comes damned close. It rises above its smaller issues to offer a true GOTY contender. The Witcher 3 has improved on nearly every facet of the previous games. The combat offers a visceral experience where proper preparation can mean the difference between victory and defeat. Making effective use of your signs, potions, and oils and knowing whether to use steel or silver adds a higher level of immersion to fighting the world's many monsters.

    CD Projekt Red has crafted a rich world full of fantasy, ambiguity, and political intrigue. Even the seemingly smallest of tasks can become elaborate quests. The Bloody Baron questline in particular is unforgettable. The storytelling, voice acting, and relationships Geralt has; make the world feel tangible and believable. The change to an open-world means fast travel was needed. Of course, you can travel via signposts or you can get where you need to go on your trusty steed Roach.

    The game can be quite serious but also knows when to have a bit of fun and humor as well. You can participate in fistfights and horse races. You can also play a round of Gwent. I liked the in-game card game so much I even ordered the PS4 version of The Witcher 3 just for the Gwent cards.

    There is so much quality fresh content to be had that never feels like its unnecessary padding. Angry Joe had stated he got more out of the Witcher 3 for the same price he has paid for lesser games. I couldn't agree with him more. CD Projekt Red has also seen fit to offer 16 pieces of free DLC as well.

    SWITCH VERSION_______________

    In my PC review I gave the Witcher 3 a 10/10. So how does the Switch version fare? To put it simply the Switch version is one of the most impressive ports on the system to date. DOOM on Switch was a revelation for what a team could do for the FPS on the platform. Witcher 3 ups the bar for several reasons.

    Not only do you get the full base game and all 16 DLC's? You get the equally excellent expansions Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine as well. All of this is on one 32gb cartridge. CR Projekt Red and Sabre Interactive have not skimped on either the port or storage. You don't need to worry about downloading a huge portion of the game. It's all here to enjoy.

    Visually the game looks good. Does it look as good as PC or PS4? No, of course not. You have to remember this is running on a device that is the size of a small tablet. The game has had a few patches. One patch in particular added a host of postprocessing effects that allow you to further customize how the game looks. You can for example adjust the sharpening. More importantly, the patch added Steam and GOG cloud saves.

    The game had concessions made to get it running on the platform, yet it doesn't feel compromised. It would feel unfair to give it a lesser score because it's running on less capable hardware. If anything the hardware it's running on and the job that has been done with this port deserves every bit of praise the other versions get. It's one of the Switch's best ports and Switcher 3 is an example of how to do it right.    … Expand

    Deeply absorbing game where the choices you make often have unpredictable consequences in large part due to the fact that you make them with incomplete information. Portrays war better than most. The game's lore, especially the stuff around the Conjunction of Spheres, is fascinating. I'm reading the books now for the first time in advance of a second play-through.

This has to be the second best story I've played (first being The Mass Effect Trilogy and that's 3 games worth of story). The main plot is so good and the choices make sense. There are no obvious renegade choices and obvious paragon choices. It's all gray and challenges your morality. Some picks sound good but end up becoming bad. And some are both bad and you're forced to pick your version of lesser of two evils. And all the side quests are great. Before Witcher 3 I was use to lazy "Go here and do this" mini side quests that dotted a large map (Skyrim) but each quest is unique and detailed. Even a two parter quest has a lot of backstory and intrigue. Hell some side quests like The Bloody Baron is so well done I thought it was part of the main questline. And the characters are all written well. Each seem believable and unique even the one time deal quest givers. 10/10

    Gameplay: Like any good RPG there are a multitude of mechanics from brewing potions to crafting gear at a blacksmith to selecting your talents and skills to level up. Combat is the weakest link in this whole game but that isn't to say it's bad just above average in a pool of masterpieces in other fields. But combat is diverse as there are dozens of different types of monsters in 12 types of species that all fight and react differently. One is weak to fire where one uses zergling style of fighting. One is more powerful in certain areas. This is probably the strongest point as two monsters are never the same. Fighting a Drowner is not the same as fighting a Leshen. Not to mention the mechanics behind potions and oils that change up the gameplay for each encounter. Overall gameplay is a masterpiece. 10/10

    Sound/Music/Voice: Sound quality is superb. Sword strikes sound real, the creaking of leather and plate as Geralt moves around in cutscenes, monster roars and crys fit the monsters that produce it. Nothing seems out of place and too overly done that becomes annoying. Music is amazing as it has this Norway/Polish old timey feel to it. The casual traveling music fits well but where it really shines is the battle music. When fighting monsters and humans the music incorporates this chanting style in the main zones and this awesome classical style in the DLC zone. Not one is done wrong and fits the feel of what it sets out to. The voice acting is so top notch that it makes me wonder what the !@#$ Bethesda is doing wrong in their games. Sure voices are repeated but the amount of voices in this game seem to triple or quadruple that of Fallout and Skyrim not counting the main/super important characters as they all have unique never used again voices. This helps tremendously as it gives those people that extra bit of characteristic. 10/10

    Graphics/Switch Port: In short if you have a PS4/PC/XBONE and you're a huge stickler for high pixle count and frames then obviously this isn't for you. This is the weakest part in the switch port and even though the switch is, of course, weaker than pc/other consoles I can't overlook the impact of the game. When in combat the game pixle count does dip close to the 500ps to maintain 30fps. But in cutscenes the frames dip well below 30 and into 15ish at times if the scene is heavy. These are not in every cutsceen but close to every 3rd scene. And it is super noticeable. The scenery itself is blury and foggy and popins are always a given. The switch vs pc looks and feels are so night and day they might as well be in two different solar systems of difference. On TV the game looks so muddy. But in handheld it looks crisper. Also if you thought BotW was a battety vampire then ooohhhh boy this one is 2 BotWs playing at the same time for battery life. After saying that this port does have it's biggest plus which is the physical version has EVERYTHING on one SD card. Sure there have been patches since release but they are not needed to pop in and play. In a world where capcom and 2K release smaller games that require 20G downloads on physical releases. CD Project Red found a way to stuff ALL of Witcher 3 into a small sd card. HOW?! And this is the entire game PLUS all the 16 freeLC that came out PLUS Heart of Stone and Blood and Wine. HOW?! JUST HOW?! Fact is this is The Witcher 3, easily one of the best RPGs of this generation and arguably the best RPG of all time, on a portable handheld. That wins a lot of points BUT I cannot ignore the graphical short comings it does have. 8/10

    Conclusion: If you are an RPG fan/Witcher fan/never played the witcher then get this game pronto. I've tripple dipped for this game (PS4, PC, Switch) and it was worth it every time. The only people that shouldn't get this is if you have another way to play Witcher 3, are a stickler for frames/looks AND only play The Switch on the TV and never use it's portability. Overall 9/10    … Expand

The story revolves around Geralt, whose current journey is about finding Ciri, his adopted daughter and destroy the Wild Hunt, a mysterious organization who is after her. In spite of the fact that it is the 3rd game in the franchise, it is independent of the previous ones, meaning that it is not needed to have played the previous games to understand this one's story.

    What makes this game so special, is the fact that it offers an impressive combination of open-world, storytelling, music, and combat. The Witcher 3's world is captivating, with charming sceneries, combined with magnificent dark ambient music, which will keep you engaged right from the first minutes of the game. As far as combat goes, it is satisfying and pretty intense, just like you would expect from an action game. However, where the game truly shines is its storytelling; this is the greatest storytelling I have experienced in a video game; from the main story to simple side quests, its dialogues, characters, and the overall narrative are significantly stimulating. You are going to find yourself "lost" in its world, exploring and making quest for many hours.

    The Switch port stands close to other console ports considering how inferior the console's power is compared to PS4 and Xbox One. The game's visuals are blurrier than when playing the game on any other system and the framerate has a few "hiccups" sometimes (mostly on cinematics). However, none of the above reasons take away from the experience. CD Project Red had to "sacrifice" various things to make such a huge and demanding game (plus all of its DLC) run on Nintendo's console and the final result is phenomenal for Switch's capabilities, especially in handheld mode.

    In conclusion, Witcher 3 is indeed one of the greatest, if not, the greatest action RPG ever created. A masterpiece in all aspects that should be experienced by every gamer.    … Expand

    I read the books and naturally wanted to play the game too on my Switch. It performs decently, the graphics are a bit meh, compared to Assassin's Creed and God do I hate the slow pace. I think it depends from player to player, but I wouldn't have minded to have a bit more action, than leisure. Otherwise, as great as everyone says it is!

    Story - great. Mechanics - great. Visuals (after the update) - great. On my PC I never had time to play The Witcher. Finally after 4 years I can do that on my Switch and it is the best of 2 worlds. TONS of content. After 3 months of playing (~100h in the game) I am probably in the middle.

Yes, the graphics aren't as good as your xbone/ps4/pc when in docked mode, as it's essentially a PC port on low graphical settings. However this is a non-issue as it doesn't affect the gameplay at all, and in handheld mode you can't really see any noticeable difference between the different versions anyway. I have an xbox one but I still bought this game on switch as I don't get the opportunity to spend hours and hours playing in front of the TV at home anymore. I'd much rather play this game regularly on the go than rarely at home. On the downside, audio is reduced quality (but not so much that you'd notice), there is no special use of switch features such as gyro, the price is a little higher than I would have liked (Nintendo tax). However these are all minor issues when you consider the gameplay experience is essentially the same as you'd get on much more powerful consoles.

    Full marks to the developer for demonstrating what can be achieved on the Nintendo switch!    … Expand

    - gameplay and controlls are still awesome
    - really nice physical copy with cool physical extras
    - one of the greatest soundtracks ever made

    Cons:
    - graphic in docked mode are really bad imho, so if you plan to play it in handheld only, this is not an issue but if you mainly play it on the big screen it looks really blurry (I recommend playing Witcher 3 on an other platform if you want to play it on the TV/Monitor)
    - pretty high prize but its ok i guess

    So should you buy it?
    It depends on a few things. If you are MAINLY a handheld player, then it is a must buy to me since it looks good enough and is still the Witcher 3. If you play MAINLY on the TV/Monitor, you might consider playing it on another platform. BUT that being said: If this is your FIRST time ever playing The Witcher 3 it is also good enough to play it in TV mode. Same thing goes for if you ONLY have a Switch and no PC/XBOW/PS4 - then you also should buy it for the Switch, since it is still awesome.    … Expand

    Speaking about the game itself, what can i say. I've put a bit more than 24 hours so far, and the story so far is very interesting, and the amount of side-quests you can play, on top the the main story, is just incredible. I haven't played the original game on any of the bigger consoles, so I cannot compare with those, but it is one of those games where the storyline is one of the best things of the game.

    My only complaint is that the jumping on top of your horse is not that responsive at it should be, which I understand is a issue with how the controls have been coded. You have to align yourself pretty well with the horse, which is a bit annoying sometimes. And something similar happens when collecting objects, but do not get mistaken, those are trivial issues compared to the greatness of this game.    … Expand

I must admit that at the beginning I was unsure if to buy it for my Switch (taking in consideration that it was 60$ for a 2015 game) or for my PC (Just 15$ the complete edition). Finally, after a couple of hours of deliberation with myself and with my pocket, I decided to try it in my favorite console, The Switch, and believe me, I have NO regrets. This is without any doubts one of the best ports ever created for a console, absolutely wonderfull job from CD Projekt Red. Although its true that the graphicals are quite downgraded in comparison with the PC version, its still good enough for me, specially when you play en Hand held mode.

The attention to detail is what is so awe inspiring. Every creature has such a vast beatiary entry, every character has multiple paragraphs full of lore.

There is a quest in the    Okay, no one is going to argue that The Witcher 3 is GOTY material. However, is the switch port worth it?

    Short answer: Yes. Yes it is

    I´ve never played a game in the series. However, the game introduce you to a fantasy medieval setting filled with monsters, allies, and tough decisions that will follow you for the entirety of the game.

    The story is amazing. There is a quest in the story concerning a baron and, without spoiling anything, it is the most haunting side-quest I´ve had to date. Also the story concerning the main characters, and their eventual fate, is very intriguing. Which makes you constantly wonder if you did the right choice.

    The combat is pretty fun. However, I did find it repetitive after a while, which did spoil some parts of the final game, but the story had me so fascinating that i played through it

    There is also Gwent, which is a playing card game within the game (a phenomenon called game-ception). Personally, I love card-trading games, but I would understand if there are players out there who found it tedious.

    The world is massive. I´ve searched around 90% of the map, and still have a lot of terrain to cover. This, however, is helped by the monster contracts and the treasure maps.

    The graphics are the big issue. I played it on hand-held mode most of the time, and didn´t suffer frame-rate drops, and do believe that the image was very clear. However, if you can play it on a PS4 or Xbox One, it would probably look better, but you will be missing out on a great hand-held experience.

    The first expansion, "Heart of Stone", had a very compelling story, and I did enjoy the side-missions it allowed.

    The second expansion, "Blood and Wine", did give me a little bit of conflict. During the matches of Gwent, the area where you played turned green, and that happened also to some of the loading screens in that particular area. Also, returning to Gwent, some of the cards where not visible at every moment, and it was only possible to differentiate them for their attack value and/or abilities.

    Despite the problems I faced on the second expansion, I cannot recommend this game enough. It is gripping, filled with wonderful locations, adventure everywhere, and it is a lot of fun.

    I hope this game managed to motivate third party developers to introduce more games to the switch, specially Cd Project Red, which mesmerized me with this one game. Hopefully, in the not so distant future, they could port the first two instalments in the series, or even Cyberpunk (I know, it is practically impossible… but a man can dream).

    Considering the limitations of Switch's hardware, this is an outstanding performance. Visual down is obvious enough, and it will push away some gamers, but if you want portability, this is a must have product.

CD project red did an amazing job bringing this beloved game on our system, and we can't thank them enough for doing so. I've played the game on PC, so I can see the difference between Switches graphics and PC's, and of course a FPS thing.
    It sticks between 20 and 30 FPS, which for a handheld device, the one with mobile chip-set is a miracle for even to work as well as it does. Cut scenes are locked at 720p at docked so that why the frames drop exist, but throughout game-play, dynamic resolution do it's charm. Yes, it gets blurry, but no one said it will be without compromises. If you can get past through that, Withcer 3 is a full package game, the sight to behold, full game experience, in its full embrace.    … Expand

    I love this game. It’s one of the best games I’ve ever played. I played it through multiple times on PS4, and was excited to be able to take it with me wherever I went.

I used to have the original switch, but gave it to a family member after I realized I never played it on the tv. I specifically got this game to play it in portable setting. Obviously, the graphics have downgraded, but on the portable screen, it’s not an astronomical difference, and definitely doesn’t ruin the game. The only thing I would say is a tiny bit troublesome is examining and searching areas on the smaller screen. The switch screen is quite a but smaller than a 65” tv, so it is taking me some getting used to. I’m sure I’ll be used to it in a couple days. Is this the best way to experience Witch 3? No, but it’s the best/most engaging game I’ve played on Switch, yet. So, I’m definitely pleased with the game and hope that more RPG games get ports to Switch!… Expand

    The result is just fantastic - to be able to play such a deep and immersive universe, on a portable console, is simply the biggest challenge so far well executed on the Switch. CD Projekt Red found the perfect companion to bring this to reality with Saber Interactive. Even after finishing twice the game on ps4 Pro , it's a new pleasure to meet Geralt and this world , anywhere I want in my pocket !

    Hail to the RPG-King, now on Switch and superb as it has to be. Controls are good and it comes with optimized (screen-fitted) inventory-system. Love it.

    Lo tengo en PC y esta claro que no se comparan los gráficos, pero el juego en escencia no cambia y sigue siendo uno de los mejores, los que quieran mejores gráficos pues que lo jueguen en PC y listo (nada de Xbox One o PS4), un gran logro el port para la consola híbrida, poderlo jugar donde sea es el plus en Nintendo Switch.

    Es un gran logro de CD Projekt Red en lograr correr un juego de gran magnitud en una consola pequeña y demostrar que nada es imposible si das tu esfuerzo máximo.

    Having owned this on PS4, but not being able to use the TV for long enough to really get into it, I was stoked this was coming to the Switch. Then, when I first plugged this in, I was extremely disappointed with the graphics. I don’t consider myself a graphics snob, but goddamn, everything is soo blurry. It looks like a tiny screen that was zoomed in 3x.

Then, when I first plugged this in, I was extremely disappointed with the graphics. I don’t consider myself a graphics snob, but goddamn, everything is soo blurry. It looks like a tiny screen that was zoomed in 3x. This game is not pretty, and if you’ve played it elsewhere, it’s a jarring transition. But then something happened. I just couldn’t put the game down! Yes, it’s blurry, but the game is brilliant. The story, the side quests, the scope of the world. After awhile, you just get used it being blurry, and just enjoy the experience. In fact, you start to admire the world design and art direction, despite the poor resolution. The game is just soo good, you can’t help but enjoy it. If you can play it on PC or PS4, I would. I feel a bit of fomo going through this, imagining how much better it would look on another platform. But if you’re like me, and Switch is it (my PS4 got water damaged), then don’t let that turn you away from this game. Best game I’ve played on Switch yet!… Expand

    The Witcher 3 should at least be experienced for its good attributes, but you must be prepared for any frustrations. It is a game that bets a large part of its chips on the narrative and the world, so players more used to well-polished mechanics will be surprised.

    The Witcher 3 is so involved, that the Switch version outputs 720p picture to your big screen.

    There’s a reason The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is considered one of the greatest action-RPGs ever made. The world is brilliantly realized, everything from the gameplay to the story contains a great amount of depth, and it gives players the power to make a meaningful impact on the world through the choices they make. And with arguably the most impressive Switch port of any game to date, players have a whole new way to experience CD Projekt RED’s massive hit, one that just might be the preferred way for those who can stomach mildly-reduced visuals.
