Check out the first stunning footage of The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt on PS4

You may be thinking that you've already seen a shedload of videos from the Witcher 3 Wild Hunt - CG and gameplay and all manner of killing things and sometimes talking to things. But the fact of the matter is that, in a lot of cases, game footage is captured on a PC for these videos.The reasons are many but the one obvious one is that a monster PC can make the game look absolutely incredible, with massive graphical detail and silky smooth frame rates. But the developers are also putting the game together using PCs and capturing and editing the footage in that way so it just makes sense.The flipside is that the game often looks better in promos than it does in reality - but that's normal for any kind of marketing. In the case of the divide between consoles and PCs though it's a little more significant, given that there's usually a frame rate and resolution gap. For example a recent Wild Hunt video by Microsoft showed the game at 1080p and 60 frames per second but was intended as an Xbox One trailer, wherre the game will only run at 900p and 30fps.With the game almost readay for its worldwide release, its times to check out what it's really going to look like on PS4 with this first look video.
