How good can The Witcher 3 look these days? Pretty exceptional if you mod the game extensively and run it at 4K resolution driven by Nvidia’s flagship Ampere graphics card, as it happens.
As Wccftech spotted,
the Digital Dreams channel on YouTube – which specializes in showing all sorts
of games fully modded and with the graphics details totally cranked – showed
off The Witcher 3 with a ton of mods running on an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 GPU.

Mind you, over
50 mods were used to enhance the visuals here, including ‘realistic’ ReShade,
the Vanilla Lighting and Weather 2.0 mod, plus The Witcher 3 HD Reworked
Project 12.0 mod (from Halk Hogan). The latter improves models and textures,
seriously upping their quality while aiming to maintain the original style of
the game, and also increases the draw distance for some objects.
If you’re interested in the
full list of mods used, Digital Dreams provides a link to the mod list in the notes on the video.
Next-gen now (sort of)
Should all this visual finery
get you suitably excited, don’t forget that the next-gen update is coming in the second half of 2021 for the PC (and PS5, PS4, Xbox
Series X/S and Xbox One), promising graphical improvements, ray tracing, and
faster loading (with more besides).
Still, even
before the graphics upgrades inbound with this next-gen revamp of the game, The
Witcher 3 can already look seriously impressive on a top-end graphics card, as
we’ve seen here.
You may also recall that we
have highlighted The Witcher 3 running in 8K before, again courtesy of the RTX
3090, although at this resolution, even Nvidia’s mighty flagship struggles to achieve much more than 35
frames per second.
