The Witcher 3 Remastered Isn’t Pulling Punches: ‘When We Think About This Remaster, It’s Almost Like A 2.0 Overhaul’
Kotaku · 2026-09-02
CD Projekt Red is approaching *The Witcher 3*'s upcoming remaster as a "2.0 overhaul," similar to the significant update for *Cyberpunk 2077*. According to Paweł Sasko, they focused on improving gameplay, which was the most criticized and outdated aspect, addressing issues like exploration, Geralt’s movement controls, and the lack of finisher attacks. The remaster will introduce new active abilities and tools, such as the iron chain, to make combat more interactive. These underlying enhancements and changes will be available as a free upgrade in October.
