Happy PS4 Pro owner here; thank you One X!
I can't imagine it will be much, but as a 1080p owner, I'd settle for supersampling and maybe some enhanced effects. Hopefully it will be a locked 30 throughout as well (even with boost mode I'm pretty sure there were still a few areas with drops).

Not a chance Pro or OneX runs this at 60fps.

Nice. I just started a replay a couple days back.... Guess i'll put it down until then.

I'm one of those that doesn't care for 60fps and would rather have a resolution bump along with extra visual fidelity so i welcome this Pro boost also. Cheers X1X
Thank you for clarifying this. That's really helpful.

I've been playing The Witcher 3 on my PS4 Pro for months and I'm nearly finished.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Ok, realistically, here's what I'm hoping from the Pro patch.
Checker boarded 4K (or 1800p) + rockiest of rock solid 30 FPS with other enhancements like better motion blur and texture filtering etc.
TW3 Complete edition was one of the first games I got with my Pro, played and loved it even before the Boost mode. Native Pro patch should be great for the next play through the entire compilation.

I have a feeling that it's gonna be 1440p on the Pro with higher quality assets and HDR, which is fine with me.
I'd prefer if they go all out on it, but I'm not expecting a huge effort from them.

In DF's PS4 Pro target video 1800p was achievable at a solid 30fps.

Hope this doesn't affect previous saves for NG+. Probably won't, but still.

I can putoff playing the dlc then.

This is amazing news, although CDPR's denial of any Pro support in the past prompted me to do a New Game+ last month and I am half way done.
I might as well finish it now. I would be totally down to do a 3rd playthrough when these patches release as well.
I assume I can't do a NG++ so luckily I kept my original save.

Hmm, they could do actual 4K textures instead of simply increasing the resolution on the XBX. I can imagine Pro version will mostly be increasing resolution and XBX version might have actual higher resolution assets.

God damn this makes me so happy. The last couple weeks I've been thinking about jumping back in, but I was really hoping this would happen, so I didn't.

This is really exciting, good on CDPR.
Also, X1X is good for the Pro just like DF said. Hope for more of this going fwd.

I think the RAM set up on XBX will allow for it to have higher res textures most of the time. I expect that will be a more tangible benefit to most people than something like checkerboard versus native 4k.

That's very true, competition is always good.

60 FPS would require CPU power that these consoles (Pro at least) don't readily have. It would require a looot of optimization or the team diverting a bunch of features from CPU to GPU (like how The Surge has particles entirely done by the GPU).
If there is a 60fps mode it will be more like a 45 fps mode. Not enough cpu power.

Well there is my reason for going back and finishing the base game and the dlc on Ps4 pro. Right after I finish Horizon ZD.

This will be my 4th playthrough. There is always time for one of the greatest games of all time. Newer games can wait.
