Game Overview:
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an open world action RPG developed by Polish studio CD Projekt RED.
It serves as the final game in its story arc of The Witcher trilogy, and the final time that Geralt of Rivia appears as the series’ protagonist.
CD Projekt RED confirms that The Witcher 3's recently announced DLC will be coming to its PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch versions as well.
While there are no details on what the DLC is, it seems it will tip its hat to the Netflix adaptation in some form.
Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown and Slay the Spire will also be available on the service until July 5th and December 6th, respectively.
The creator of The Witcher 3 HD Reworked mod says it's "very likely" his work "will be included in the official next generation update."
An internal investigation found him not guilty.
The port will be handled by Saber Interactive.
Doug Cockle says he hasn't had "any involvement" with the RPG "thus far."
The game on the hybrid system seems to have been a big success.
