The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt players reporting loading screen bug

Players are reporting getting stuck at the first loading screen in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt when starting a new game for the first time on both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. How widespread of an issue this is has yet to be determined, as not everyone has been affected by the bug. For example, we've yet to encounter this problem.

The reports of the bug came through Reddit, GameFAQs and Twitter, all of which are offering different fixes for the bug.

Some players claim that going offline and uninstalling the game followed by reinstalling, playing the through the opening cutscene, then stopping to install the day-one game patch works. Other have fixed the issue by resetting the console (unplugging the console, plugging it back in). CD Projekt Red has yet to comment on the issue that players are facing, but hopefully they offer a fix for the bug soon.
