The Witcher 3 Remastered Update 5.00c Out on PC on October 1
Earlier today, CD Projekt RED released a game update for The Witcher 3 Remastered on consoles. While it seemed like the PC version would be left in the dust, and receive an update at a later date, we’re glad to report our assumptions were wrong.
CDPR has today released The Witcher 3 Remastered update 5.00c for PC, and this fixes the HairWorks issue, alongside a bunch of other bugs.
Note that 5.00b also has issues sorted out for the PC version, which we’ve included in the changelog.
