Gamers who have been playing “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” will be seeing improvements from hereon following the 1.20 update released by CD Projekt Red for all gaming platforms.

The update comes ahead of the expected Blood and Wine expansion which means new goodies in the form of enemy upscaling options and a new system that should make it easy for players to collect Gwent cards.

Blood and Wine expansion

Aside from the patch, there is the Blood and Wine Expansion for “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” to look forward to. The expansion pack offers over 90 new quests and about 30 hours of gameplay. This will be the final add-on for “The Witcher 3”.

GameSpot has rated “The Wither 3: Wild Hunt” a high 8/10 which should give gamers a fair idea on how good this game will be.

"Perhaps we will join him in yet another adventure, but if Blood and Wine is the White Wolf's final interactive appearance, he at least departs in style," reviewer Kevin VanOrd said of GameSpot.
