There's no doubt that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the biggest game of 2015. Just Cause 3 and its ridiculously huge map came close, but there's really no competing with the amount of content CD Projekt Red managed to cram onto a Blu-ray. Seriously, it's almost scary — and, with the game's first expansion launching back in October, the already-ludicrous list of activities got even longer.
Then again, all that content comes at a cost: it's nearly impossible for the development team to bug test and fix every possible outcome of a given situation in a world that immense. While The Witcher 3 was more stable than some predicted, it had its fair share of bugs — and Hearts of Stone didn't necessarily change much in that department.
As such, fans should be happy to know that patch 1.12 has launched on all three platforms — and, while it doesn't change the game in any major ways, it does do a good job fixing quite a few of those smaller bugs.
With an update this big, it's easy to assume that CD Projekt Red is getting the game ready for its second expansion, Blood and Wine. The studio has yet to confirm the expansion's release date, though Blood and Wine is rumored to hit sometime in early 2016. With this many minor updates incoming, CD Projekt Red could be getting ready to make an announcement.
... or there were just a million little tweaks that had to be made — either way, Witcher 3 fans win!
