The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered brings a significant performance boost to the PS5 Pro, allowing players to reach up to 90 frames per second in Performance Mode. The update enhances the experience on Sony's latest hardware by offering smoother gameplay for owners of the upgraded console. While previous remasters have struggled with frame pacing, this release targets a stable high-refresh experience.

CD Projekt RED update adds console mod support and accessibility options

CD Projekt RED developed this remaster to leverage the PS5 Pro's specific capabilities, including PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) for upscaling. The game runs the same ray-tracing feature set as the base PS5 version but achieves higher frame rates through optimized rendering. Players using the Pro console will notice improved visual clarity and responsiveness while retaining the core lighting architecture.

  • PS5 Pro Performance Mode FPS: Up to 90 FPS
  • PS5 Pro Upscaling Technology: PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR)
  • PS5 Pro Ray Tracing: Same feature set as base PS5, higher frame rate
  • Console Mods List: Boat Races, Glowing Witcher Eyes, Gwent Mods, Hoods, New Hairstyles, Unlimited Inventory Capacity
  • Mod Integration Platform: mod.io

Console mod support is now integrated directly into the game via the mod.io platform. Users must register a mod.io account and link it to their CD Projekt RED profile to access these community creations. The initial list of available mods includes Boat Races, Glowing Witcher Eyes, Gwent Mods, Hoods, and New Hairstyles. This integration eliminates the need for manual file installation or third-party launchers.

Accessibility features have been expanded to include unlimited inventory capacity, no item durability, no item weight, and auto-loot enemies. These options are built into the remaster's settings rather than being available as separate mods. The base game has also been updated to the Complete Edition, which includes the Blood and Wine and Hearts of Stone expansions. We looked at the last The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered update, several of the same balance and stability themes came up.

The remaster confirms that PS5 Pro users will get a higher frame rate ceiling without a complete overhaul of the ray-tracing implementation. All accessibility options are now native to the game client. The mod integration offers a standardized method for players to customize their experience. This release establishes the PS5 Pro version as the primary method for playing the game on console.
