While it is true that The Witcher 3 was once again one of the most anticipated games of the year, it didn’t come out without its hitches. For those who don’t know, The Witcher 3 received a substantial update for next-gen consoles and PC. The latter, though, has had some issues since launch. While console players have reported fewer things than those who play on Steam or GOG, the patch launched with many problems. Glitches, crashes, and horrible FPS drops plague the next-gen update. Still, CD Projekt is working day and night to bring more fixes for The Witcher 3 next-gen update on PC that brought many issues. And yes, in less than a week, we have yet another patch that attempts to fix some of these problems.
The Witcher 3 Latest Patch Fixes Photo Mode on PC, as well as some stability issues
These two last hotfixes aim to improve the stability of the game. High-end PC users have reported terrible frame drops, even with the latest graphics cards. As you can see in the official announcement below, they are still looking to fix the stability of the PC version. Besides that, there are some fixes for the photo mode, the toxicity bug, and more on The Witcher 3 PC version.

Some people are worried about all these glitches, given that this is a game that already had its launch. Other players are a bit sad, saying that the company learned nothing from the previous Cyberpunk 2077 launch. While the latter got a lot of fixes, or at least became more playable, people are still sad to see a beloved game riddled with problems. Still, we truly hope that these issues on PC disappear so people can enjoy the next-gen version of The Witcher 3. If you have purchased the game, the update will be free for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam and GOG users.
