The Witcher 3 Price Quietly Increased Ahead of Remaster Release
The Witcher 3 has gotten a price increase ahead of the release of the game's remaster next month.
CD Projekt Red has quietly raised the price of The Witcher 3: Complete Edition on Steam ahead of the upcoming remaster release. The remaster, announced earlier this week, brings visual enhancements and combat changes to the game. Existing owners of The Witcher 3 and those who do not own the DLCs will get these additions for free.
However, new buyers will need to pay a higher price for the game. The price for The Witcher 3: Complete Edition has increased from $39.99 to $49.99 on Steam. This price will apply to the remaster itself, and owners of the original version will have their copy upgraded automatically. While the price increase may be disappointing for fans, they should consider the game's lengthy playtime and high replay value.
The Witcher 3 is widely regarded as one of the best RPGs of all time, and a new DLC is set to release next year, with The Witcher 4 expected in 2028. CD Projekt Red frequently offers deep discounts on The Witcher 3, so it may be worth waiting for a sale before purchasing the remastered version.
