The Witcher 3 patch 1.12 out now, all the details

Another Witcher 3 patch is now available to all platforms.

Original story: It's been a while since we had a patch for The Witcher 3. Update 1.12, is scheduled for release today for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

CD Projekt's community manager Marcin Momot announced it on Twitter earlier, but did not reveal patch notes or size. Momot promised more details as the patch goes live.

The Witcher 3's upcoming expansion, Blood and Wine, is still without a release date.

Update: The patch is now live, clocking in about 1.4GB. The change-list is pretty big, with some Hearts of Stone-specific fixes.
