The Witcher 3 Remastered Has Already Broken Steam Concurrent Player Record
We're just a few hours into the launch of The Witcher 3 Remastered, and it's already beaten its previous record for concurrent players on Steam.
The Witcher 3 Remastered has already shattered the Steam concurrent player record just a few hours after its launch. Before the remaster, the original game reached a peak of 103,329 players in January 2020, following the release of the Witcher TV series. However, the remaster has soared to a new high of 114,696 players, representing a staggering 258% increase from last month's 31,959 players.
This remarkable surge is primarily due to the free update benefiting existing owners with modest gaming PCs, while promising enhancements for those with more powerful systems. While the remastered version has encountered some initial glitches on AMD graphics cards, these issues have since been resolved. CD Projekt Red has meticulously refined various aspects of the game, including graphics, animations, and even path tracing for those with high-end PCs.
For newcomers, IGN provides comprehensive guides on navigating the game's storyline, character interactions, and essential locations to enhance gameplay.
