The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt News

Hi. There's an expansion coming out this week. It's called Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree and you probably haven't heard much about it. Anyway, within a day of the reviews of it coming out ahead of its arrival on June 21, it's casually become the highest rated game of 2024 and the highest rated DLC ever among critics on Metacritic.

Yup, Miyazaki and co have basically succeded in making us hold their beer as they casually make an expansion that's a good bet to get plenty of Game of the Year votes from folks who're determined to argue that getting more of a thing pretty much everyone already gave one GOTY award to warrants us all dispensing another one. Seriously though, given the very high expectations folks had for it, From's done a pretty amazing thing here.

If you head over to Metacritic, the place you go when you've run out of ways to say a game's good during an argument with your mates, you'll see that Shadow of the Erdtree's currently sitting at a critic rating of 95, with our own review being a part of the sample of 56 which've led to that number being a thing.

If you've been worried that Call of Duty Black Ops 6 might require huge amount of space to install and play - say the 300GB listed on the Xbox Store over the weekend - then good news, it looks like it won't be that big after all.

Yup, stop engaging in all of those debates as to whether the series being on Game Pass now is a good thing for Xbox or not in order to stop yourself from panicking, you can chill out now.

This is because the figure of just over 300GB listed on those pre-order pages has now been identified by Activision to "not represent the download size or disk footprint for Black Ops 6". So, no need to woory about having to have enough space for about six copies of the Witcher 3 - going off of that game's Steam space requirement listing of 50 GB.

We have just released a hotfix for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!

It fixes the issue where turning on HairWorks on DirectX 11 crashed the game after loading a save.

It also adds some new capabilities for modding scripts: the script compiler now supports a number of annotations. Their main purpose is to add/modify functionality in existing game functions and classes without merging script files.

This new episode is all about celebration! To mark the anniversaries of The Witcher 2 & 3, you've assumed the role of our bards to choose the music! Whether you’re a witcher or a sorceress, a human or an elf, join us!
