The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition (Switch) Reviews
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.
The (S)Witcher 3 is an ambitious port of one of the best games of the generation, albeit with some notable concessions.
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.
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.
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.
If you've never played The Witcher 3, you should try to play on Xbox or PC, but if you want to get up close and personal, this is a fantastic version of a truly brilliant game.
Poor port of a great game. At least it has all the content released to date in that tiny cartridge and is very much enjoyed in portable mode.

The developers should be commended on their efforts here, and I’m excited to see how much further the Switch can be pushed.
Despite its compromises, The Witcher 3 is still a breathtaking adventure and the best RPG for Nintendo Switch till now.

The Switch is clearly not the game's natural home and yet even with the graphical downgrade The Witcher 3's innate quality shines through.
The Witcher III is still one of the best written RPGs out there, but Switch version (specially played in TV mode) has many technical flaws and feel outdated.

The Witcher 3 looks pretty bad on the Switch, but it's still an incredible RPG that shouldn't be missed if this the only way to play it.
An intelligent port that shrinks one of the best RPGs of recent years without losing the scale and magic.
Hack, slash, chop, blast a fireball, stir my pasta, dodge those lunging talons, taste the bolognese, chop off the monster's head to collect my bounty.
Should you play The Witcher 3? Absolutely. It’s one of a handful of games from the past decade that you simply can’t miss. Should you play The Witcher 3 on the Switch? Honestly, probably not.
In the end, it all boils down to the player. If you are looking for a great RPG to sink your teeth into, The Witcher 3 is an automatic recommend. What is not an automatic recommend is if you already own an Xbox One, PlayStation 4, or a PC that can run games well.
The Witcher 3 for Nintendo Switch turns out to be another incarnation of the franchise ready to kidnap you without making you understand how, where and when. A game that knows how to excite and fascinate its players.

The Witcher 3: Complete Edition for Nintendo Switch makes some sacrifices to go portable, but it's worth it for those looking for Geralt on the go.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for Nintendo Switch is still the same masterpiece as before, but now with the ability to take the game with you. The clarity of the graphics significantly loses to the rest of the consoles, but it is not so noticeable in a portable format, especially given the good optimization and beautiful characters. If you dreamed to plunge into the dense atmosphere of Slavic fantasy on the road, you can safely buy the game. In all other cases, it is better to take a cheaper and more beautiful version for PC (or other 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.
