    They should just focus on the next gen UE5 witcher game and forget about this.

    Yes and no, for PC i totaly agree with you, but on console W3 is still a hit, but it's now from 2 gen ago... a bit dated on actual gen.
    It's an easy refresh that can make some easy money, and please some PC user too that don't have yet W3.
    Also it will not make next Witcher late.

    We can only hope it doesn't get delayed again. And again.

    Do we really need a re-release of a great game that still look great compared to most games released on the last 5 years? No.

    A higher quality graphics version of the game for PS5 and Xbox Series S/X. That's it. I mean, it will also be on PC, but other than that who knows. Nothing?

    Well from what I've gathered the next gen console versions will be optimized for the respective machines and will probably run at higher resolutions and have better quality settings. The PC version will get Raytracing and better textures.

    So they are talking about the PC version as well here? Am waiting before I start again, or if my Save Game will be compatible.

    Exactly. I would appreciate it if they would just do their thing, in their own time, and say it's done when it's done. They really should have learned this by now...

    If it's only graphics improvement without extra story, then no buy from me. I've played Wicher 3 multiple times, and that is enough for me.

    It's free

    Tbh I kind of like the idea of companies upgrading older games as time goes on. Like movies going from VHS, to DVD, Blu-ray 4K, etc... as long as the originals are still playable and the upgrade is either free or really cheap, I think it's cool -- extends life to the game.
