The Witcher 3 Remastered Switch 2 Patch Is Officially ‘On the Way’
CD Projekt Red has confirmed that a Switch 2 patch for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered is “on the way,” addressing concerns that Nintendo’s latest console was initially left out of the update cycle. The remastered version of the acclaimed RPG launched on September 29 and received patch 5.01 on October 9, bringing performance improvements, visual enhancements including bloom fixes, and additional customization options to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. However, Switch 2 players were excluded from this initial update, prompting the developer’s commitment to deliver the patch at a later date.
The timing of the Switch 2 patch remains unspecified, though the official announcement confirms the update is currently in development. This commitment reflects CD Projekt Red’s track record of supporting The Witcher 3 across multiple platforms since its 2015 original release, with the remaster representing a significant visual and technical overhaul of the award-winning game designed to meet modern hardware capabilities and player expectations.
