Nintendo Switch 2 players may soon get the improvements they've been waiting for in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered. Developer CD Projekt Red has confirmed that a patch for the hybrid console is on the way, with more information expected soon.

The remastered version launched on September 29, bringing updated visuals and technical improvements to the beloved fantasy RPG. However, the initial fixes were limited to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, leaving Switch 2 players waiting for their own update.

Switch 2 Players Can Expect Improvements Soon

On October 9, CD Projekt Red released patch 5.01 for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered. The update addressed several issues, including performance problems and excessive bloom effects, while introducing additional visual customization options.

Although these changes improved the experience on supported platforms, Nintendo Switch 2 players were left without the same fixes. The developer acknowledged the situation in its patch notes, confirming that work on the Switch 2 update was continuing.

Another small hotfix arrived on October 13, focusing on stability and gameplay improvements for PlayStation 5. However, the absence of a simultaneous Switch 2 update frustrated some players who were still waiting for their platform to receive attention.

CD Projekt Red subsequently responded to concerned fans on social media, confirming that the Switch 2 patch was "on the way" and that more information would be available "very soon."

What Will the Update Fix?

According to the previously published patch notes, the Nintendo Switch 2 update is expected to include the improvements introduced on other platforms, alongside fixes for issues specific to the console.

These changes include improvements to image clarity and sharpness, which should help make the game's environments, characters, and other visual details look better on the portable system.

The update is particularly welcome for players who want to experience Geralt of Rivia's adventures without the technical issues that have affected the remastered release.

While CD Projekt Red has not announced an exact release date for the Switch 2 patch, its latest response suggests that further details should arrive soon. Until then, Nintendo players will have to wait a little longer before receiving the same improvements available elsewhere.
