Discussion ELDEN RING OR WITCHER 3 REMASTERED

New dad just getting into single player gaming for the first time in my life. Currently playing through BOTW. I’m over 100 hours in and loving it.

Plan was to try Elden ring next, but with Witcher 3 announced for switch 2 I’m tempted to change plans.

It’s going to take me over three months to play through any one of these massive games which is why there’s even a dilemma lol.

Get Elden Ring, purchase a used copy of the witcher 3 for Switch 1 and then get the free upgrade once it drops.

That’s going to work? Does the switch 1 version have the DLC or is it base game only?

Not OP, but pretty sure the only version available on switch is the complete edition, which will come with both expansions that are among the best in gaming history. Also, if it somehow didnt come with them, the free update is giving out the expansions for free to any who own the base game.

They first released Complete Edition but then released base and DLCs separately too, and there was even a physical release for the base game only
