Well, you can&#8217;t, not really.<\/p>\n<p>PC gamers will have to wait for CDPR to deliver an update. However, you can check that your gaming rig actually meets the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/the-witcher\/3-next-gen-pc-specs-features\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">minimum or recommended system requirements<\/a>. Further, we suggest updating your graphics card drivers to the latest version and closing any unnecessary programs for now.<\/p>\n<p>There is a way, however, to play The Witcher 3 smoothly on your gaming rig right now, which is what the next section of this guide explains.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Roll Back Witcher 3 Next-Gen Update<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/ccSAQW79iU6s1GtiwjuzC8rpbCJ5EG1_0qN1sLW4ELY\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMi9XaXRjaGVyL1VwZGF0ZS93aXRjaGVyM25leHRnZW5wY2Zwc2lzc3Vlc2ZpeHBlcmZvcm1hbmNlMy5qcGc_X3Q9MTY3MTA5MzU0Ng\" alt=\"The Witcher 3 next-gen update pc performance issues low fps fix graphics stuttering lag roll back version gog steam how to solution\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">Jen doesn&#8217;t have to cast a spell to get you back to the &#8220;Classic&#8221; Witcher 3: Wild Hunt version 1.32. (Picture: CDPR)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The only way for many PC gamers to experience smooth FPS in The Witcher 3 right now is to roll back to an older version before the next-gen update. Yes, it is really not ideal at this point, but it might be the only way right now. Below, we&#8217;ve outlined the steps to roll back the Witcher 3 next-gen update on both Steam and GOG.<\/p>\n<h3>Roll Back Witcher 3 PC Update on Steam:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Run Steam.<\/li>\n<li>Head to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in your Steam Library.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click on the game and choose the &#8220;Properties&#8221; option.<\/li>\n<li>From here, click on the &#8220;Beta&#8221; option and then choose &#8220;Classic&#8221; from the menu.<\/li>\n<li>Restart Steam (it might not be needed).<\/li>\n<li>Run The Witcher 3 without the next-gen update.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Roll Back Witcher 3 PC Update on GOG:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Run GOG.<\/li>\n<li>In your GOG games Library, find The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the &#8220;Settings&#8221; option.<\/li>\n<li>From here, pick the &#8220;Select Installation&#8221; option from the menu.<\/li>\n<li>Click on &#8220;Configure&#8221; and then choose the &#8220;Classic&#8221; option.<\/li>\n<li>Run The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt without the next-gen update installed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This should roll back The Witcher 3 to version 1.32. For reference, the next-gen update is version 4.0.<\/p>\n<p>So there you have it, possible fixes to The Witcher 3&#8217;s next-gen update PC performance issues, such as low FPS and stuttering, and how you can roll it back to a previous version on both GOG and Steam.<\/p>\n<p>We will endeavor to update this article once more fixes are found or once CDPR issues a hotfix update to alleviate these performance woes.<\/p>\n<p>In case you&#8217;ve been out there hunting monsters and missed it, check out the next-gen update trailer from CDPR below.<\/p>\n<div style=\"left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; max-width: 650px;\" data-ephox-embed-iri=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nBT2SP21f3Q\"><iframe style=\"top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nBT2SP21f3Q?rel=0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" srcdoc=\"&lt;style&gt;*{padding:0;margin:0;overflow:hidden}html,body{height:100%}img,span{position:absolute;width:100%;top:0;bottom:0;margin:auto}span{height:1.5em;text-align:center;font:48px\/1.5 sans-serif;color:white;text-shadow:0 0 0.5em black}&lt;\/style&gt;&lt;a href=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nBT2SP21f3Q?autoplay=1&gt;&lt;img src=https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/nBT2SP21f3Q\/hqdefault.jpg alt='YouTube video thumbnail'&gt;&lt;span&gt;&#9654;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CD Projekt Red has unleashed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt&#8217;s next-gen update, filled with graphical prowess.
