The thing you hated from The Witcher Netflix show is coming to the game

The wrinkled and disgusting armor of Niflheim from The Witcher Netflix show is coming to The Witcher 3, as part of the next-gen update. It’s available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC on December 15.

For those who don’t know, the kingdom of Niflheim was long forgotten when its strange and visually unpleasant armor on the TV show. As part of this major update, free to all existing owners of The Witcher 3, several Netflix themed cosmetics and quests are coming to the game.

The update also comes with overhauled performance, visual updates, a photo mode, and general bug fixes and optimization for newer hardware. Additionally, a number of fan-favorite mods that have proven popular with the community will be added.

CD Projekt Red has been, as you can imagine, very careful about spoiling the new quest coming to The Witcher 3 with this update. This quest, which is tied to the Netflix show, is brand new and tempting to think about. But whatever it is, we’ll be able to take it on with new gear, as well as an alternate costume for Dandelion. Nice!

Another reason to replay The Witcher 3 is great! With a bunch of new projects announced by CD Projekt Red, including the next game in The Witcher universe, as well as a remake of The Witcher 1, it looks like this is the last hurray for the finale of Geralt’s trilogy.
