'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' new patch update for Xbox One, PS4 out now

The Witcher 3 website

The release of CD Projekt Red's "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" was met with a gracious response. Although many gamers are already glued to their consoles and computers helping Geralt in his new missions, the game studio aims to push the game to its fullest potential.

This is why patch updates for the game are now online. In the past two days, the PC version of the role playing hit has received two updates already and it was only recently that a much-needed update for the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 was made available.

The patch fixes the unlocked framerate and the uneven performance of "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" in the Xbox One, thus stabilizing the game and improving its graphical quality. This secures 30 frames per second and the annoying visual stutter should be no more.

Those who play the title with the PS4 are also treated to a patch that fixes bugs including the problematical "spontaneous combustion of gas clouds" when players aim to shoot bolts at friendly NPCs. Furthermore, the new patch for the console is hoped to eliminate the bug that crashes the game when players run around in Gwent. More noticeable visual changes include reduced shadows and steady foliage behavior.

There are also minor improvements on the game's sound effects, and upgrading items included in gear sets will no longer destroy rune sockets on said items. Spawn time on certain NPCs are shortened while the issue on stamina regeneration while sprinting are also taken care of with the patch.

The patch for "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" is already available in Europe and in most parts of Asia as well as Australia. There is still no word on the patch update's availability in the United States.
