Many also praised the game's content, including the DLC, and the quality of the port to the Switch platform, particularly its performance in handheld mode. However, some users noted issues with the resolution and controls, while others experienced occasional frame rate drops.

    Great game for switch. It’s an amazing port. Why Best Buy points for submitting reviews? point seem to be pretty useless especially since they reset after a short period of time. It’s not a real incentive to write a review

    Have only owned/been playing this game for a few weeks but it has been excellent so far. You can set your difficulty level and it comes with great DLC content. Great graphics for the system, and very fun and interesting to play.

    What seemed to be impossible turned out to be possible. Great port given the platform limitations, but do know that you are buying this for portability of an amazing rpg on the go. To play at home just pick a PS4/Xbox/Pc version

    If you haven’t played this game, I highly recommend playing this game on whatever platform you choose. I personally enjoyed this on Switch because it’s a BIG game and being able to play portably was a godsend.

    Playing the Witcher 3 on the go? If someone would've told me that last year I would've said they are crazy. But they did it, and amazing it runs well portably. You can even adjust the settings to make it look the way you prefer.

    What a time to be alive. Full Witcher 3 game on a cartridge with no download required. It’s amazing that this game is even on the Switch. The game looks great on the portable screen but a little bit blurry when it’s docked. Still, pick it up.

    Very fun game! I bought the original witcher games on PC, and bought this one for the switch. It was a little weird re-learning and figuring the controls, but manageable. Not the prettiest game, but about what I expected from consoles.

    I'm really enjoying this game. It takes a little bit to get past the tutorial stage but once the story gets going it's really interesting (it helps to be either familiar with the TV show or the books if you haven't played Witcher I or II, but isn't necessary). This version comes with all the expansion packs and I turned on the alternate looks for Ciri, Triss, and Yennefer right away. I was surprised how smoothly it runs on Switch. The loading screens don't take too long (although sometimes after dying I wish they would load my recent save faster if I'm just going to be killed by rotfiends again) and my switch doesn't overheat or get fussy while playing. The world in this game is massive. Definitely over 150 hours of gameplay.

    One of the best open world games to come out in a long time. Incredible they got it to fit on a switch cartridge. Love that it comes with a physical printed world map! Over 100 hours of content - definitely worth it!

    I bought this on switch so I could play at work during lunch, since this game was on my to play list for the past 5 years. I get the big deal now, probably the best game I have ever played story wise. What an epic.

    Great Addition to the Switch

    I had never played the Witcher 3 before buying it on the Switch. After the first hour I was hooked. The storytelling in this game is amazing and constantly searching for upgrades and loot is addicting. It took me about 70 hours to beat the main story and I haven't even started on the 2 expansions. I'm sure the graphics are worse than other platforms but I enjoyed the game both on the TV and in handheld mode without feeling like I was missing out on anything. My only complaint is that I really don't like how Geralt controls, it took a while to get used to and still felt clunky when I was picking up items. Overall though this is a fantastic package and definitely one worth picking up. I wish more publishers would work to put the entire game on the cartridge like CD Projekt Red did here.

    I loved this game on the PS4 and it’s even better on the switch being able to play it on a handheld is a game changer. This actually plays smoother on the switch than it did on my ps4.

    I am by no means an avid gamer. I bought this game after having played the Witcher on the Nvidia Shield. I must say, it is addicting. Graghics are actually really good on the Nintendo Switch. Controls took some getting used to, but nothing too difficult. I would definitely recommend to all who are into this genre of games.

    I’ve over 80h of play time, and apparently i’m still in the first half of the game. This game is huge. Since the update, graphismes looks sharper than during its release. I would still recommend playing on PS4/Xbox, if you play only at home. You would get the full visual experience. But if you’re like me always on the move, this is the version to get ! PS: the whole game is on the cartridge, which is awesome. And my version of the game came as a collector edition

    Witches 3 is good, I’ve bought it twice. The switch version is pretty good, the frame rate stays pretty high but the resolution is about what you’d expect from a 720p mobile tablet. Definitely worth playing on mobile.

    I double dipped and paid $50 for this game on the Switch. I own it on the Xbox One and its just as fun. The graphics are better on the Xbox or the PS4 but its not portable. Highly recommended game, on any console.
