The Witcher 3 Remastered Is Reportedly Broken on AMD GPUs Ahead of New Driver
The Witcher 3 Remastered released earlier today, and while it seems to work great for Nvidia graphics cards, AMD users are reporting a wealth of bugs and visual artifacts.
The Witcher 3 Remastered has been released, but it appears to have issues on AMD graphics cards. Users are experiencing a variety of bugs and visual artifacts, such as missing trees and black artifacts. One Reddit user posted a clip showing the foliage in White Orchard appearing like it was run through a negative filter, while another shared a video of water in Novigrad blinking like a strobe light.
This issue seems to be exclusive to AMD Radeon graphics cards. CD Projekt Red has acknowledged the problem and advised players to upgrade their graphics driver to a supported version, although the current supported Radeon driver, Adrenalin 26.9.2, has not been released yet. The latest available driver, Adrenalin 26.8.1, was released on August 20.
Until AMD releases a new driver, the best course of action is for AMD users to wait. Despite these temporary glitches, the remastered version of The Witcher 3 offers significant gameplay and graphics improvements, bringing the game up to current generation standards.
