Along with the Witcher 3 next gen upgrade, we’ve made a tips video that should help you get reacquainted with Geralt of Rivia. Here are 12 things The Witcher 3 doesn’t tell you!
Using mostly PS5 gameplay after the next gen update, we’ve taken a collection of tips we’ve dropped on our wiki over the years to create this Witcher 3 guide video. Rather than focus on just next gen features, we’ve tried to make this useful for everyone, and focus mostly on gameplay help.

The side quests about finding Ciri and defeating the Wild Hunt is great and all, but the main story about winning the Gwent tournament is even better.

The Witcher 3 is a great card game with nice open-world minigame

Ya witcher 3 is definitely my favorite card game. Too bad they didn't just focus on that. All the running around between matches can get annoying.

@nickuschrist5967 Год назад

Yes but there should have been a tournament you could play after getting a complete deck that would actually be a challenge and im not talking about the DLC deck cuz that's just garbage

@DragonsDream Год назад

Remember to try and learn Gwent, it might look difficult at first but trust me it's not, and once you learn about it there's a lot more sub-stories that you can experience in this game, it's 100% worth it.
