We have just released a hotfix for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!

It fixes the issue where turning on HairWorks on DirectX 11 crashed the game after loading a save.

It also adds some new capabilities for modding scripts: the script compiler now supports a number of annotations. Their main purpose is to add/modify functionality in existing game functions and classes without merging script files.

This new episode is all about celebration! To mark the anniversaries of The Witcher 2 & 3, you've assumed the role of our bards to choose the music! Whether you’re a witcher or a sorceress, a human or an elf, join us!

An update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is now live! It brings a number of changes to enhance modding experience and support the release of The Witcher 3 REDkit.

Check out the list of changes below for details:

• Enabled Steam Workshop.
  Manage your mods with ease on Steam! We’ve integrated the Steam Workshop support into The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. While Steam users can still use Nexus Mods or whatever modding platform they like, they now can install any mod available on the game's Steam Workshop with a single click. Just find the mod you like, click “Subscribe” and it will install automatically!
• Added Steam Workshop support for DLC mods (mods that include completely new content).
  
• Added support for an easier way to add new world IDs in mods.
  
• Added full support for loading DLC mods - fixed an issue that occurred when loading additional content from mods.

Mark your calendars and get ready for a special REDstreams episode where we'll dive deep into REDkit—a modding tool that allows you to customize and expand The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with the same powerful tools used by developers who originally created the game. Together with our guests, Bence Hambalko and Moritz Baron from Yigsoft, we will discuss the mod creation process with REDkit, its possibilities, and more!

📅 Date: Tuesday, May 21st
🕒 Time: 5 PM CEST

Whether you're a seasoned modder or just dipping your toes into the world of modding, you don't want to miss it. Hosted as always by our Senior Community Managers: Amelia Kołat and Alicja Kozera!

See you soon!

Mark your calendars — The Witcher 3 REDkit, an extensive mod editor based on the game’s engine, releases fully in just two weeks on May 21st, 2024!



REDkit will be available for free for everyone who owns The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on PC. Wishlist it now, or, if you cannot wait, sign up for the Playtest.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2684660/The_Witcher_3_REDkit/

To get you in the modding mood, join our communities on the official Forums, The Witcher Discord server or Steam Discussions, and chat with like-minded people about anything modding-related!

If you can't wait to get your hands on the editor for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we have some great news for you! Starting today you can sign up to try it out yourself in the official Playtest on Steam.

The Witcher 3 REDkit is a comprehensive modding tool for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt we're currently developing. It is based on the same set of tools that were used by our developers to create the game and should allow for nearly limitless freedom in modding it. REDkit will be available free of charge for all owners of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on PC and it's scheduled to release later this year.

In order to sign up, simply navigate to the store page of The Witcher 3 REDkit on Steam and request access:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2684660/The_Witcher_3_REDkit/
Playtest access will be distributed in batches. After receiving access "The Witcher 3 REDkit Playtest" will appear in your Steam Library. Remember that the editor will require The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt game files in order to work properly, so make sure you have it installed too!

We hope that you'll have a great time testing and everything will be going smoothly for you, but please keep in mind that you'll be running a beta version of the tool and might encounter some issues. Should you run into something serious trouble, you can report it to us using a dedicated form on our Tech Support website: http://thewitcher.ly/REDkit_report


Once you get the chance to try the tool out, we invite you to share your feedback with us — you’ll find a built-in button in REDkit taking you to a survey, but you can also share your thoughts on:

• Steam Discussions in the Community Hub of the tool
  
• Our official Forums, in the MODS section
  
• Our official Discord server, in rooms within the REDKIT section

We can't wait to hear what you think about it!


But wait... That's not everything you can help us test!


Alongside the modding tools we're also working on enabling the Steam Workshop for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. You can help us check the update by participating in the dedicated Beta.

WARNING: Before participating, make sure to back up your saves!
Steam Workshop Beta testing and The Witcher 3 REDkit Playtest are related to each other, but completely separate. You don't need to participate in both and you can try out the Beta without signing up for Playtest, just as well as you can run Playtest while not participating in Beta.

In order to enable access to the Steam Workshop of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, you'll need to join a dedicated group on Steam:
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/thewitcher3workshopbeta


Once you're a part of it, all you need to do is find The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in your Steam Library, go to Properties > Betas and select "workshop_test" from the drop-down list. Once this is done, the game should update automatically.

Have fun!

Imbaelk is an Elven holiday celebrating spring’s arrival. But a witcher has no time for cozy festivities; winter still holds its frosty grip on the Continent, with eerie creatures lurking in its blizzards...
