CD Projekt Red has raised the price of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition on Steam shortly before the arrival of its announced remaster.
As IGN notes, the Complete Edition is now listed at $49.99 instead of $39.99. The change comes only days after CD Projekt Red revealed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered, which launches on September 29.
The timing is notable because existing owners are getting the remaster as a free upgrade on supported platforms. That means anyone who already has The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will receive the visual, performance and gameplay improvements without paying extra. CD Projekt Red has not publicly tied the Steam price increase to the remaster announcement, so the reason for the change remains unconfirmed.
The upcoming remastered version promises enhanced visuals, smoother combat, revised animations and other quality-of-life improvements intended to modernize the award-winning 2015 open-world action RPG. It will release for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, while a native Nintendo Switch 2 version is also planned, giving returning players and newcomers a more polished way to experience Geralt’s sprawling adventure across its vast open world.
Aside from the remaster, CD Projekt RED and Fool’s Theory are also working on Songs of the Past, a new expansion launching in 2027. Check out the first gameplay here.
