The Witcher 3 Finally Lets You Pet Roach, and Here’s How

The Witcher 3 Pet Roach Guide

After over 1,000 hours of game time in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, I can finally express affection to one of gaming’s most trusted steads!

As spotted by The Witcher’s Reddit community, the ability to pet Roach has been stealthily added with the recent 4.00 update.

You can pet Roach by holding down the jump button next to her ;> from witcher

Like the thread states, in order to pet Roach in The Witcher 3, all users have to do is press and hold the jump button when standing next to her. On PlayStation 4 and 5 this is the circle button, while on Xbox this will be the B button. PC users can also perform this by pressing and holding the space bar. If for whatever reason it’s not working, try moving to a different spot around Roach. It can be a bit finnicky at times. 

A nice little unexpected surprise, though CD Projekt Red did state that this update would contain some new secrets. We can’t wait to see what else the community finds in the coming weeks.
