CD Projekt Red to fix NSFW mods in ‘The Witcher 3’ next-gen update

The studio behind The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, CD Project Red has confirmed that certain NSFW community mods were accidentally added to the game’s next-gen update which was released in December 2022.

As covered by Kotaku, Reddit users, and other players noticed that certain characters, including the Crones from Crookback Bog and the bruxas (the only women NPCs that are shown completely nude), have detailed genitalia and pubic hair.

CDPR responded to the matter and said: “The next-gen version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt features several community-sourced mods not created by CD PROJEKT RED, on top of numerous enhancements created and implemented by the studio internally.

“Merging everything together was a complex process and the textures in question are an unintended result present in the release version. This is something we are working to address.”

The studio also revealed that these mods will be removed in a future update as these textures were never intended to be in the final build.
