Rumors were confirmed today when Nintendo announced today in its E3 stream that The Witcher III: Wild Hunt is headed to Nintendo Switch. The game includes two expansion packs previously released for Xbox One, PlayStation 3 and PC editions of the game.
Developed by Saber Interactive "in close cooperation with CD Projekt Red," the game marks the first time the franchise, which generally is known for pushing the envelope where visuals are concerned (and also mature-skewing content that includes nudity), has come to Nintendo hardware.
A press release issued after the event reckons there are more than 150 hours of gameplay available, and for once that seems to mesh with the experience critics and players have had with the title. The content includes Hearts of Stone and Blood of Wine, two expansions that by themselves added dozens of hours of campaign, as well as all 16 free DLC that were previously added in support of an already massive adventure.
The Witcher franchise now accounts for more than 40 million units, and more than half of that number is thanks to the previous editions of Wild Hunt. The Switch version will be available digitally, and a physical edition is offered that includes a compendium, game map and stickers.
The Witcher III: Wild Hunt Complete Edition is already available for preorder from fine online merchants. You can find out more information about the game at the official Witcher III web site, should you feel so inclined.
