Just set that going, cheers.

Bought the base game for about a fiver during lockdown and never felt compelled to jump into the tens/hundreds of hours of gameplay.

But I'm in between games now so reckon I should probably just try and dive in without a second thought now-ish, otherwise I might never do it

i bought The Witcher 3 back when they announced the free upgrade, I bought the GOTY edition, does this next gen version include both DLC ?  Looking forward to this as I never actually played it.

Did the same. Looking at the PS store this morning it’s the ‘complete edition’ you want to download and it includes all the DLC and other updates plus all the next gen changes too.

I’ve got the series x, the goty edition dlc is still there if that’s what you mean? Is there a separate Next Gen issue?

45gb download on Steam.

I'm a little ways into the fairytale land in Toussaint so dunno how much I'll notice.

Apparently it is a mess on both consoles and PC at the moment.

Unplayable right now. I launched it (PC) and it was sluggish as hell (and looked like the graphics had been turned way down). Geralt took about 5 paces forward and it just crashed straight to desktop.

Incredible stuff.

Edit - if I disable ray-tracing then it starts to work, mostly (my card is a 1070 so doesn't even have RT). There are some odd colour glitches in the surface of a lake though. This is just running around for 2 minutes so could be other issues.

Edit further - The PC launcher now has the option to choose between DX11 & DX12 - if I choose DX11 the game seems to play as it did before the update.

You have the option to transfer save-files between the different platforms (though not all combinations work I think, but most do), but the game itself is still bound to the platform, so I'm pretty sure you'll have to buy it again on Playstation in order to be able to play it on there...

God I love this game

Played it twice through but never the DLC so I've started my third playthrough and I'm loving it again.

That new mission in Devil's Pit was great
