About The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Remastered

You play Geralt of Rivia, a witcher who takes contracts to hunt monsters. The main story follows his search for Ciri, his adopted daughter. She is described as the Child of Prophecy, and the spectral Wild Hunt is pursuing her for her power.

The setting is the Northern Kingdoms, which are at war. The official description mentions cities, ancient ruins and superstitious villages. The game is set in the universe from Andrzej Sapkowski’s book series.

The content warning matters too. The PlayStation page lists an ESRB Mature rating for blood and gore, intense violence, nudity, strong language, strong sexual content and use of alcohol. The Steam age gate gives a similar warning.

Key Features

• An open-world setting with varied regions. The game covers more than one kind of place, from busy cities to remote villages and ruins.
• A story built around a search for Ciri. Your main goal is clear from the start, and the listing says choices are part of the experience.
• A witcher’s toolkit. Swords, potions, bombs and combat magic are all named. Combat involves more than swinging a blade.
• Reworked systems. The listing mentions an upgraded skill system, revamped combat and improved visuals. It doesn’t give specifics, so this page can’t say exactly what changed.
• Two expansions, per PlayStation. Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine are listed as included. The second takes you to the realm of Toussaint. Check this on your store of choice, because Steam and Nintendo weren’t confirmed.
• PS5 controller support. On PS5, the DualSense’s vibration and trigger effects are supported, and the PS5 Pro Enhanced label is listed.

Gameplay and Player Experience

The sources don’t include hands-on impressions, and this page isn’t based on personal play, so I’ll stick to what’s confirmed.

It’s a single-player game. On PlayStation, Remote Play is supported, and PS5 and PS Portal cloud streaming needs a Premium subscription. Online features need a PlayStation account.

Accessibility is one of the better-documented areas. The listing names 16 options, including:

• Large text and large subtitles
• Individual volume controls
• Advanced difficulty customization
• Control and tutorial reminders
• Manual saving
• Pausing at any time (offline play only)
• Playing without motion controls, touch controls, vibration or adaptive triggers

Platform and Availability

• PlayStation: the store lists PS4 and PS5, with a PS5 Pro Enhanced tag. PlayStation says some PS4 features may be missing when you play on PS5, so check their backward-compatibility page.
• PC: a Steam page exists, but its platform and requirements weren’t readable.
• Nintendo Switch 2: a listing exists on Nintendo’s US store, but its contents weren’t readable.

Prices and deals change. At the time of checking, the PlayStation page showed a 50% discount running until 10/8/2026, and Steam’s page title advertised a 50% discount too. Always confirm the current price on the store page.

For availability and updates, use the official stores: PlayStation Store, Steam and the Nintendo Store.
