The Witcher 3 Remastered, launched by CD Projekt RED, has faced several technical issues since its release, with some bugs evoking memories of another troubled game, Assassin's Creed Unity. The remaster was a major event for fans of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in September 2026, with many returning to the game in anticipation of the upcoming Songs of the Past expansion in early 2027. However, not all players have had a smooth experience, as the bugs have caused various unsettling visual glitches. Reports include floating heads, faceless characters with only their eyes and mouth visible in empty space, and horses with eyes that suddenly pop out of their sockets, creating a chilling effect. One player on Reddit described the latter as "the scariest thing I have ever seen in this game."
The Xbox Series versions of the game seem to be more affected by these issues compared to the PS5 and PC versions. Some online users have drawn comparisons to Assassin's Creed Unity, which faced similar problems when it launched in 2014. Players have made jokes and comments about the similarities, with one stating, "This is Geralt's outfit in AC Unity," and another mentioning "immediate flashbacks of the launch" of Ubisoft's game.
CD Projekt RED has already released several patches since the game's launch to address these issues, but a definitive fix has not yet been released. The studio has indicated that it is working on the next patch, though no release date has been set. While the bugs do not affect gameplay progression, they have given many players the creeps. With Halloween approaching, there is hope that the next update will resolve these issues soon.
