One of the Final Witcher 3 Easter Eggs Has Been Found After Nearly Seven Years
Someone has found one of The Witcher 3's final Easter Eggs nearly seven years after it was released in May 2015.
YouTube user xLetalis discovered that Vivienne, a character that players can free from a curse at the risk of her dying in seven years, can actually be found dead after waiting that long in-game.

"For sure this is the Easter Egg I hid the most out of all the ones I did, so it's quite impressive it was finally found."
While it's one of the final Easter Eggs for now, a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series version of the game is on the way, giving CD Projekt Red plenty of opportunity to sprinkle in new secrets.
