Bloom Toggles on Console and Larger Lighting Changes Land for The Witcher 3: Remastered After 'Washed Out' Complaints
- CD Projekt Red released The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered patch 5.01 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, finally allowing console players to toggle bloom off. This highly requested option addresses player complaints about overly bright lighting.
- Early last week, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered launched, but many players complained the updated lighting created a washed-out look. Heavy bloom effects made the environment appear too bright, obscuring original visual details and stark shadows.
- Patch 5.01 is roughly 5.5 GB on console and 8.5 GB on PC, delivering a fresh round of fixes. The update resolves bugs where Geralt would collide with dead enemies after the Aard finisher.
- Fixing voiceover audio balance on PS5, developers also resolved Geralt mumbling from 10 feet away during NPC conversations, ending the need to crank sound systems to 30. This ensures clearer interactions and cutscenes.
- Arriving next year, the third expansion Songs of the Past represents unprecedented content for a 12-year-old RPG. The developer claims this update is as ambitious as Blood and Wine, serving as a gap filler between The Witcher 3 and its sequel.
