CD Projekt REDs Marcin Momot har officielt annonceret, at den længe ventede og tunge pathc 1,7 til The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt er klar til alle platforme senere på ugen. Ud over fejlrettelser, forbedret ydeevne og smårettelser angående enkelte quests indeholder opdateringen også mange nye gameplay-features såsom alternative bevægelsesanimationer til Geralt og muligheden for at fremhæve formler og diagrammer, så man nemt og hurtigt kan få et overblik over hvilke ingredienser man mangler i spillets butikker.
Du kan læse den fulde liste af ændringer under billedet. Momot annoncerede samtidigt, at grundet opdateringens store vigtighed og størrelse vil der ikke blive udgivet nogen gratis DLC i denne uge.
- A new, alternative (optional) movement response mode for Geralt.
- A player stash for storing items, available in various locations throughout the game. Stash locations are marked on the player's map.

- Books are now placed in a dedicated tab in the Inventory and books that have already been read are properly grayed out.
- Multiple sorting options are now available in the Inventory.

- Dozens of fixes for quest related issues, both major and minor.
- A few performance enhancements, including the optimization of FX, scenes and general gameplay.
- Various improvements to horse behavior.
