The Witcher 3 update 1.08 is confirmed to launch today, August 7, around the world across all platforms, i.e. PC, PS4, and Xbox One, according to developer CD Projekt Red.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has already been around for a few months, and CD Projekt Red has released all sorts of different updates and patches for the sprawling role-playing game, not to mention new downloadable content for free, in the form of quests, gear, or features.

Now, its long-awaited patch 1.08 is finally set to arrive today, August 7, according to CD Projekt Red Community Manager Marcin Momot.

He confirms on Twitter that the update is going to be available for download later today, although exact timing is unclear, at least for now.

PC, PS4, and Xbox One users should still prepare for the major patch, as it brings a suite of improvements to various mechanics, not to mention bug fixes that target issues that surfaced after patch 1.07 launched last month. Support for the long-awaited New Game+ DLC, which should release after the update, is also included.

Expect to see an official release announcement in the following hours from CD Projekt Red for patch 1.08 for The Witcher 3.

Update: The Witcher 3 patch 1.08 is now available for download.
