The Witcher 3's Price Just Went Up—Here's Why

Ever feel like you wait a little too long to grab a game, and then the price goes up? Well, that's exactly what's happening with The Witcher 3 right now.

CD Projekt Red has quietly bumped up the price of the base game ahead of the next-gen remaster, which is set to release next month. So if you've been putting off buying it, now might be the time to act—before it costs even more.

The price hike seems to be a strategic move, likely to make the remastered version look more attractive when it drops. After all, why buy the old version when the shiny new one is coming out? But for those who just want to experience Geralt's original adventure, it's a bit of a bummer.

Interestingly, this isn't the first time a game has seen a price increase before a big update or remaster. It's a common tactic to push players toward the newer, more expensive edition. But for a game that's been out for years, it's a surprising move.

So, what's your take? Are you going to grab the original before the price goes up further, or will you wait for the remaster? Let us know in the comments!
