Inside The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition
What it is
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition is a comprehensive release that includes the base game, both major expansions (Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine), and all free DLCs. It has been issued in multiple versions over time:
- 2016 (PC, PS4, Xbox One): Released alongside the Game of the Year Edition, functionally identical but branded differently depending on region.
- 2022 (PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC): Updated version including the next-gen enhancements, such as ray tracing, visual upgrades, and quality-of-life improvements, plus additional content inspired by the Netflix series.
The premise
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt concludes the story of the witcher Geralt of Rivia, the series' protagonist, whose story to date has been covered in the previous installments. Geralt's new mission comes in dark times as the mysterious and otherworldly army known as the Wild Hunt invades the Northern Kingdoms, leaving only blood soaked earth and fiery ruin in its wake; and it seems the Witcher is the key to stopping their cataclysmic rampage.
