The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition

If someone would have told you a couple of years ago that The Witcher 3 would eventually be on Switch, there’s a good chance that you may not have believed them. Before the game was announced, many people thought that such a port would be simply impossible. Yet Saber Interactive managed to make it work, bringing the entire experience to Nintendo’s console and on a single game cartridge to boot.

During NVIDIA’s GPU Technology Conference, Saber Interactive’s Roman Lebedev delivered a presentation all about the Switch version of The Witcher 3. Lebedev went into detail regarding CPU, memory and build size optimizations and tradeoffs made during development.

Below are some of the highlights:

Deadpool has appeared in Fortnite as one of the shooter’s latest collaborations. The Marvel character has shown up with a special skin, available to everyone who purchased this season’s battle pass.

Find two pistols hidden in the menu screens in order to unlock the skin. After that, enter a match and change into the Deadpool skin at any of the phone booths on the island.

Aside from the skin, players can unlock Deadpool’s katanas and more. The game is also featuring a Deadpool party boat, which was transformed from the yacht in the northeastern part of the map.
