Since its release late last year, The Witcher 3 next-gen was patched a couple of times on PC with some hotfixes that addressed the issues that required urgent fixes and once on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game's first major update introduced a performance mode for ray-traced global illumination on PC as well as console optimizations that sadly do not bring performance to a completely acceptable level, at least on PC.
On PC, however, players at least can use mods to improve The Witcher 3 next-gen's performance and overall experience. Several mods were released following the update's launch that not only optimize ray tracing performance but also enhance visuals considerably.
The Witcher 3 is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch worldwide.
