The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered is seemingly suffering from notable technical and performance issues on PS5 Pro — but only for some players.
I reviewed the remaster — which is available through a free update for existing owners — right here on Push Square earlier this week. And outside of a hitching issue that occurs specifically when the game is autosaving (which was also present in 2022's Complete Edition), the release ran perfectly.
No noticeable frame rate drops, no screen tearing, nothing. I went on to praise the title's flawless performance in said review.
But to my surprise, not everyone has been so lucky. User comments on the review alerted me to potential problems, and so I've scoured the likes of Reddit and social media platforms in search of answers.
From what I've seen, players are having vasty different experiences. Some, like myself, are reporting perfect performance across both of the graphical modes on PS5 (ray tracing at 60 frames-per-second, and performance at around 90).
Others, as mentioned, are complaining of dropped frames, bad frame pacing, screen tearing, and even broken visuals, like incorrect lightning and environmental flickering.
