Yeah, I knew I'd need to upgrade.

We are officially a week into 2015, that means that we are officially in the year that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be releasing…Unless we see another delay, but let's not jinx ourselves.

On May 19 we will be seeing The Witcher 3 hit the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The Xbox One and PS4 are ready to play The Witcher 3, there isn't any tweaking necessary…But your PC might be a different story all together.
