The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastrede anmeldelser er ute – det beste spillet ble enda bedre

Tomorrow, September 29, marks the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt—Remastered, an improved and enhanced version of one of the best role-playing games of all time. Players have certainly missed this world, and amid this autumn's major releases, returning to an 11-year-old game still seems quite appealing. Judging by the game critics who have shared their thoughts on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, it seems inevitable.

According to early reviews, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered is being hailed as one of the best remastered games available. Even though it isn’t a remake, the game still looks incredible, the combat system has improved, and overall, the gameplay feels more enjoyable and convenient. There are still some drawbacks—reviewers often point out the camera isn’t always easy to control and there are some glitches with the interface. Although there aren’t many reviews from critics yet, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt—Remastered currently has a Metacritic score of 94, compared to 92 for the original game. Some brief reviews are available below:

Eurogamer Germany - 100/100:

The question isn't whether The Witcher 3 Remastered can still compete in 2026. The real question is which comparable game of the last ten years can go toe-to-toe with it, and that is a very short list.

Combo Infinito - 100/100:

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered stands as an exceptional definitive edition that goes far beyond simple resolution bumps to revitalize a legendary RPG. All the visual overhaul, newly integrated technologies, and quality-of-life enhancements add immense value to an experience that originally debuted over a decade ago. Except for modest official mod inclusions, this free update delivers an unmissable, beautifully crafted journey for newcomers and returning fans alike.

Noisy Pixel - 90/100:

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered remains an exceptional RPG thanks to its memorable characters, outstanding side quests, and richly realized world. Its combat and movement show their age, but the writing, exploration, progression, and sheer amount of quality content make it easy to understand why Geralt’s adventure has endured for so long.

GamingBolt - 90/100:

CDPR’s free upgrade offers plenty to enjoy ahead of Geralt’s final adventure, making the Continent feel at home among today’s best open worlds.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Remastered is definitely a smart move by CD Projekt RED, which will appeal to both newcomers unfamiliar with the franchise and those who played the game a long time ago. And it’s a great reason to play it again, as Songs of the Past—a new DLC—is set for release next year. And in 2028, the Polish developers plan to release The Witcher 4 —a new chapter in the saga.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered launches tomorrow, on September 29, for PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. Owners of the original game will receive it for free. You can also check out how to get The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered for free if you own the original game.
