The Witcher 3 Remastered Nintendo Switch 2 Can Be Unlocked for Free Even if You Borrow a Switch Physical Copy From a Friend

The Witcher 3 Remastered can be unlocked on Switch 2 for free via any physical version of the game for Switch — whether its your copy of the game or not.

Switch 2 owners have discovered that physical cartridges for The Witcher 3 on Switch can be used an unlimited number of times to grant a digital copy of The Witcher 3 Remastered. So, all you need to do is rent or borrow a copy of the game to unlock unlimited access. And no, you don't need to keep the original game cartridge inserted after unlocking the upgraded digital version.

Have a friend with the game? Ask to borrow it! Have a cheap second-hand game shop nearby? Head in and see if there's a copy for sale, and then trade it back in!
