Wasting no time at all, CD Projekt Red has begun outlining the list of changes and fixes coming to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with the next patch (1.05 on PC, 1.04 on consoles).
The most welcomed fix will be for the current XP glitch, which is preventing players from being rewarded XP after completing certain quests that are six or more levels below their own. A fix for this will be coming with the next patch, and CD Projekt Red has said they are looking into the possibility of retroactively rewarding players for missed XP.
Other than that, the patch notes are fairly straight forward, consisting of performance improvements and bug fixes. CD Projekt Red is also looking into the frame rate issues on PS4 as well.
Below are part of the patch notes for the upcoming update:
- Geralt will not longer interact with candles near chests and other interactive elements.
