Eddie Makuch: CD Projekt Red currently contemplating ideas for ways to approach uber-tough difficulty option. Polish developer CD Projekt Red is working on an "Insanity" difficulty mode for open-world role-playing game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt that sounds like it would certainly live up to that distinction.
During a recent Twitch live-stream, CD Projekt Red developers said they couldn't reveal too much about the Insanity mode, since it's still in development, but did confirm that one idea being tossed around is that dying even once would wipe your entire game save.
CD Projekt Red's overall goal for Insanity mode is to make it incredibly punishing but still fun, developers said, as reported by Game Informer. The developer didn't reveal any other ideas it had for Insanity mode, and it should be noted that nothing has been finalized.
According to Polish podcasters Rock and Boris, CD Projekt RED is reportedly planning a third DLC for The Witcher 3, set to release in 2026.
Sign me up. I haven’t played it since it released on PS4 so I could go for another run with a new DLC.

I'd literally faint from anxiety playing through such a mode.
Please make it happen. :)
What would be the point of that? it would just be tedious fake difficulty. BS like that doesn't make a game hard and developers need to learn this. Especially CDPR, The Witcher 2 was a great game but i probably only died once or twice. before they start doing dumb shi*t like this they need to work on a combat system that actually makes the game difficult .Hard gameplay makes a game hard, not wasting hours doing the same thing over because you die.
With my luck I would come out of one of the last boss battles without a scratch only to sneeze and steer my horse off a cliff
