The Witcher 3 Remastered is out today, a seriously beefy update to one of the greatest RPGs of all time, and if you've noticed that there sure seems to be a lot of negative reviews flooding in on Steam, consider that a reminder that it's time to update your drivers.
This applies most specifically to owners of AMD GPUs: After hundreds of users dropped negative reviews for the remaster due to technical and performance issues (many of which praised the game effusively otherwise, such is the way with user reviews), CD Projekt said on X that new AMD GPU drivers have been rolled out and urged users to update before starting the game.
AMD users: the latest GPU drivers are now available! If you’ve been experiencing visual issues in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, please make sure to download and install the latest drivers. We recommend updating before jumping into the game.September 29, 2026
Response to the suggestion has been mixed: Updating the drivers appears to have fixed the problem for some, while issues persist for others, and some players just don't care for the onslaught of eye candy. (Frankly, that's how I feel about the whole "wetter Geralt" situation.) Ultimately, while there's no such thing as a silver bullet in PC gaming, it is good advice: Having problems? Update your drivers.
