The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition

The (S)Witcher 3 is an ambitious port of one of the best games of the generation, albeit with some notable concessions.

Although The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on Nintendo Switch doesn't look as pretty as its counterparts, it's still an adventure that should not be missed.

A well-functioning port of a brilliant game with an unexpected identity crisis. Given the availability of other platforms, the visual compromise makes this technical marvel a difficult sell to first-timers and veterans.

An intelligent port that shrinks one of the best RPGs of recent years without losing the scale and magic.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remains a masterpiece, and being able to take such a grand and engrossing adventure on the go is something well worth celebrating. The Switch's Complete Edition is a truly impressive achievement, and although performance isn't perfect, it's still an incredible and impactful role-playing experience. The Witcher 3 set the bar for modern RPGs back in 2015, and this port is a startling reminder that it has yet to be bettered.

Despite a few visual downgrades, the Nintendo Switch port of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt may be the best version of the critically-acclaimed RPG to date.

It is witchcraft, being able to take one of the best open-world RPGs of the generation anywhere can not be qualified otherwise. The technical sacrifice has been important, but performance and quality have been perfectly prioritized at the right times, making this edition perfect for those who do not have another machine than the Nintendo hybrid console or for those who want to play the adventures of Geralt of Rivia anywhere.

The mature content and somber approach of The Witcher III: Wild Hunt – Complete Edition may put off some gamers, but it's a can't-miss game for those seeking an RPG with more bite and consequence (not to mention playable characters above the age of 15) than we normally get on Nintendo systems.

The Witcher 3 today is just as much a master class in game and story design as it was four years ago. Feral Interactive did an impressive job porting this gigantic RPG to Switch.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Complete Edition isn’t quite perfect: it suffers from somewhat muddied visuals and slightly unresponsive controls at times, but they still don’t totally detract from what is one of the most engaging, entertaining, and fun games I’ve played in a long time.
