The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has received a new patch 1.12.Facebook

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is basking in the glory of being voted and adjudged as the Game of the Year by several leading gaming websites. Its developer, the Poland-based CD Projekt RED, has released a new patch 1.12 for the game, which features the monster hunter Geralt of Rivia as its protagonist.

The huge patch that was released while promising to fix several issues will also be introducing, "70 changes to gameplay, quests, DLC's and Hearts of Stone." Moreover, patch 1.12 will also be bringing "fix to the Wild Rose Dethorned achievement, fixes to the Scavenger Hunt: Wolf School Gear quest and more."

The new patch was dropped ahead of the Blood and Wine expansion pack. The patch will fix issues in the user interface, and will now let players drag and drop weapon and armour kits on the gear that need repair.

Meanwhile, CD Projekt RED has denied reports following the leaked retail listing for The Witcher 3: Enhanced Edition for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The leak was reported after the French and Belgian retailers listed them.

The company's PR took to Twitter and clarifying that it was an error said: "There's no Enhanced Edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt that we are aware of, this is some kind of error that we will look into."
