CD Projekt Red is preparing a remastered version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for release in September 2026. This update addresses a common concern for players who have invested hundreds of hours into the original game. Gamers do not need to restart their journey or lose progress to experience the new version.
CD Projekt Red confirms progress transfer for remaster
The studio confirmed that save files from the original release are fully compatible with The Witcher 3: Remastered. This means players can pick up exactly where they left off in their previous playthroughs. The developer also verified that unlocked achievements and trophies will transfer over to the new edition.
CD PROJEKT RED CS stated that current saves will work with the upgrade. They emphasized that players can get back on the Path right where they left off. The team also confirmed that unlocked achievements and trophies will carry over too.
This confirmation removes the barrier of starting over for returning fans. Players can upgrade their copy without sacrificing their existing game data. The remaster launches on September 1, 2026, with full save and trophy support.
