The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt arrives tomorrow and its performance will be improved with the game's day 1 patch, at least for Playstation 4. Players will be prompted to download an update that comes with various technical improvements including a stable frame rate.
If you have noticed in the previous weeks some game reviewers were not satisfied about the game's performance, particularly on the frame rate. While some said that frequent drops in frame-rate hindered their combat experience, others said that this did not affect their overall gaming experience.
"Yes. We've already addressed this issue," responded CD Projekt Red community manager Marcin Momot on Twitter to a fan who asked if frame rate issues that were mentioned in some game reviews were already addressed."Framerate will be better once we official launch the game," added Momot.
He further stated that the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Patch 1.01 will be automatically available when the game arrives and will support 16 FREE DLC releases post-launch.
