This single PC mod alone has garnered more than 320,000 unique downloads and more than 1.6 million views, and it sounds like it caught CD Projekt Red&#8217;s attention ahead of The Witcher 3 Remastered, too.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In their message, HalkHogan confirmed their involvement in CD Projekt Red&#8217;s official remaster release, telling fans of their work that they&#8217;ll no longer need to use HDRP. Instead, they suggest players check out their contributions in The Witcher 3 Remastered, instead.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;Hello, my Witcher friends!&#8221; the message reads. &#8220;It&#8217;s been a while since the last news, and I would like to clarify any questions and confirm that I am cooperating with CDPR on the Witcher 3 Remaster, and my work will be officially available in the game on September 29th (on PC and consoles). HDRP will no longer be needed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The modder confirmed that &#8220;almost all in-game characters, monsters, animals, vegetation, armors, and equipment for Geralt and Roach,&#8221; as well as &#8220;a large part of the environment,&#8221; have been reworked for The Witcher 3 Remastered. They added, &#8220;I&#8217;ve put a lot of effort into ensuring the highest quality. :)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The Witcher 3 Remastered was officially announced at gamescom Opening Night Live (ONL) 2026. It&#8217;s currently set to refresh a classic 2015 RPG for PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X\/S September 29, 2026, but it sounds like its more than just another small visual update.
