Witcher 3 patch 4.04 is now live, adding several fixes for Xbox and PC

If CD Projekt Red is to be applauded, it's that they continue to be committed to improving their current products. And since the current PC and consoles allow it, they release several patches for it. Being The Witcher 3 one of his greatest accomplishmentsit was normal that they wanted him to appear in as many teams as possible.

So now that the game is still in the market, they decided to release patch 4.04 which introduces some news for everyone especially Nintendo Switch users. Although Xbox and PC users also have parties interested in this update. As the patch is quite large, I leave it in Spanish so you can see everything it brings.
