    UPDATED FOR XBOX SERIES X|S
    Behold the dark fantasy world of the Continent like never before! The Xbox Series X|S version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been enhanced with numerous visual and technical improvements, including vastly improved level of detail, faster loading times, a range of community created and newly developed mods for the game, real-time ray tracing, and more — all implemented with the power of the new consoles in mind — as well as a built-in Photo Mode.
    PLAY AS A HIGHLY TRAINED MONSTER SLAYER FOR HIRE
    Trained from early childhood and mutated to gain superhuman skills, strength, and reflexes, witchers are a counterbalance to the monster-infested world in which they live.
    Gruesomely destroy foes as a professional monster hunter armed with a range of upgradeable weapons, mutating potions, and combat magic.
    Hunt down a wide variety of exotic monsters, from savage beasts prowling mountain passes to cunning supernatural predators lurking in the shadowy back alleys of densely populated cities.
    Invest your rewards to upgrade your weaponry and buy custom armor, or spend them on horse races, card games, fist fighting, and other pleasures life brings.

    EXPLORE A MORALLY AMBIGUOUS FANTASY OPEN WORLD
    Built for endless adventure, the massive open world of The Witcher sets new standards in terms of size, depth, and complexity.
    Traverse a fantastical open world: explore forgotten ruins, caves, and shipwrecks, trade with merchants and dwarven smiths in cities, and hunt across the open plains, mountains, and seas.
    Deal with treasonous generals, devious witches, and corrupt royalty to provide dark and dangerous services.
    Make choices that go beyond good & evil, and face their far-reaching consequences.

    TRACK DOWN THE CHILD OF PROPHECY
    Take on the most important contract of your life: to track down the child of prophecy, the key to saving or destroying this world.
    In times of war, chase down the child of prophecy, a living weapon foretold by ancient elven legends.
    Struggle against ferocious rulers, spirits of the wilds, and even a threat from beyond the veil – all hell-bent on controlling this world.
    Define your destiny in a world that may not be worth saving.

    The masterpiece becomes a legend with this Complete Edition. The same The Witcher 3 as always, but better than ever. Looks better, plays better and has more content. An essential game.

    The game has never looked so good on home consoles, whether in 4K Ray-Tracing or in 60 frames per second. If this update also offers nice game comfort options, the adventure remains similar to what we knew until then, for lack of new content. Despite the number of years, The Witcher 3 remains one of the essential titles of recent years, both in terms of role-playing, history or even open world. If you haven't experienced it yet and don't have a powerful PC, then this next-gen update is a great way to experience the world of the witcher Geralt of Rivia.

    The Witcher 3 is nearly a masterpiece. If the combat and movement were better it would be for me. As is this is one of the best experiences in gaming, and everyone should play this version of it.

    While graphics are only one component of a game, these improvements’ impacts on the experience of playing Witcher 3 are pretty large. It is still the same thrilling combat, engaging stories, and darkly detailed world as before, but the improvements allow the player to be more immersed in it than ever before. It all comes together to make one of the best games ever made even more enjoyable.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was already one of the best games of all-time, but now the Complete Edition has cemented that legacy and will ensure that it is a game which is talked about for many more years to come.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition joins the current generation in style. To be honest this is the best graphics work ever implemented and is worth admiring with all the technical improvements made with raytracing. In addition, the new content of the Netflix series included in the game is a great detail.
