This Witcher 3 Is Giving Potatoes
The world of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is renowned for its epic stories and vast landscapes, but one modder is focusing on the smallest details to make it feel more immersive than ever. A new project, aptly named ‘Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered – NextGen,’ is dedicated to a surprising mission: giving a glorious high-definition makeover to the game’s food items and everyday objects.
Created by modder kwest0rek and available on Nexus Mods, this ongoing project aims to replace the original, lower-resolution textures and models from 2015 with entirely new, highly detailed assets. The current version of the mod focuses on the mundane items that bring the game’s taverns, markets, and kitchens to life. We’re talking about loaves of bread, apples, carrots, garlic, and even that iconic pile of potatoes with a clarity that wasn’t possible nearly a decade ago.
So far, the mod has overhauled roughly 41 individual models, including non-consumable items like metal mugs, wooden cups, and ceiling wine racks. The attention to detail is remarkable, with separate models for both whole and bitten apples. This meticulous approach ensures that every time Geralt loots a cabin or sits down for a meal, the environment feels more tangible and rich.
The mod is a work in progress, with the author releasing frequent updates to expand the list of upgraded assets. For players who want a more comprehensive visual enhancement, experts often recommend pairing this with larger-scale projects like HalkHogan’s famous ‘HD Reworked Project,’ though checking for compatibility is advised.

By focusing on the humble potato and the simple loaf of bread, kwest0rek is reminding us that immersion is built on a foundation of believable details. It’s a love letter to the game’s world, proving that even after hundreds of hours, there are still new ways to experience the Continent.
