After the release of the Next-Gen Update to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, a physical version of the Complete Edition is now available for Xbox Series X/S and PS5. It’s purchasable from local stores in North America, Europe and “select territories.” Check out the release trailer below.

Though the physical version will appeal to collectors, first-time players will enjoy several new features courtesy of the Next-Gen Update. It adds 4K and 60 FPS options and various improvements to the foliage, draw distance and overall detail. This is in addition to ray-traced global illumination and ambient occlusion.

Various quality-of-life changes and features have also been added, including Photo Mode, mods, Quick Cast for Signs, a dynamic mini-map, a new camera angle that makes the game resemble the initial reveal trailer, and more. There’s even a new quest and armor from Netflix’s The Witcher series. Check out the full patch notes here.
