BIG NEW Witcher 3 Remastered UPDATES - Release Times, Full Download Size, NEW Feature + More News!

Storyline (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered)

• The subtitles don’t detail plot events in depth, but they position The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as the well-known, beloved RPG world players are returning to with the Remastered update.

Gameplay highlights / new or emphasized features

• Transmogrification feature: Allows players to make Geralt wear any gear they want while still benefiting from status abilities—a quality-of-life idea common in MMOs, now applied to this single-player experience.
• Overall “quality of life” improvements: The video repeatedly emphasizes that the remaster improves:
  • Graphics
  • Camera
  • Gameplay feel
  • General convenience and polish
• Save/data continuity: The video notes that although there’s no new trophy list, saved data will be transferred.

Key release and content notes (practical guidance)

• Official release date: Tuesday, September 29
• Exact release time (fixed globally, local time varies by region):
  • 6:00 AM Eastern Time
  • 3:00 AM Pacific Time
• Download size / storage requirements (update size):
  • PC: ~45 GB (may vary based on installed language packs)
  • PS5: ~45 GB
  • Xbox: ~45 GB
  • Nintendo Switch 2: ~50 GB (separate download/product)
• DLC availability (free):
  • Hearts of Stone: available for free right now
  • Blood and Wine: available for free right now
  • Suggested approach: It’s okay to check/download now, but the speaker recommends waiting until Tuesday to dive in after the remaster/update lands.

Buying / pricing advice mentioned

• If you don’t have the game, the video claims the PlayStation Store has the base game at 50% off for $24.99.
• For owners of the base game, DLC is highlighted as free.
• Physical copy pricing: the video mentions GameStop used price increases (citing $29.99) and suggests going digital instead if possible.

Timing strategy / “what to play next” concern

• The speaker flags a scheduling problem: the remaster release happens alongside many other major game launches, and Witcher 3’s 70–80+ hour scale plus DLC can create backlog pressure.
