The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for PS4 is an action role-playing game built around single-player open-world combat, priced at KSh 3,700 and now available at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The game carries a PEGI 18 rating and runs on every PlayStation 4 model, including the PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro. CD Projekt Red developed The Witcher 3, and the title fills roughly 50 hours of main story across a map of cities, swamps, and northern islands. The Witcher 3 ships on a physical Blu-ray disc, so you own the game outright with no download purchase needed.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt suits Kenyan gamers who want a long single-player story rather than online multiplayer matches. Students on holiday, working professionals unwinding after Nairobi traffic, and weekend players all get value from a game that lasts months on one purchase. You play as Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter searching for a girl named Ciri across a war-torn land. Each choice you make changes how quests end, which keeps repeat playthroughs different. For households sharing one PS4, The Witcher 3 offers a save-and-resume design that fits around school, work, and family schedules without rushing.
At Mascom International, we're seeing strong demand for story-driven console titles as Kenya's gaming community grows past quick mobile games. Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya, we let you inspect the sealed The Witcher 3 disc before paying through countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery. Users consistently report finishing the main story, then spending another 100 hours on side quests and the Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions. The Witcher 3 has sold over 50 million copies worldwide since 2015, a record that speaks to its staying power. Visit our Kimathi Street shop, test the disc on our display PS4, and order with confidence.
Common Questions About the The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
How many hours of gameplay does The Witcher 3 PS4 offer?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt runs about 50 hours for the main story alone. Add the side quests, contracts, and treasure hunts and most players reach 100 to 120 hours. If you buy the Complete Edition with both expansions, total playtime passes 150 hours. That works out to weeks of evening sessions, making the KSh 3,700 price one of the lowest costs-per-hour in console gaming. For Kenyan buyers stretching every shilling, few games last this long on a single purchase.
Is The Witcher 3 single-player or does it have online multiplayer?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is single-player only, with no online or local multiplayer mode. You control Geralt alone through the entire story, so you never need other players or a stable internet connection to enjoy it. This matters for Kenyan homes where data costs add up and Wi-Fi can drop. Once installed, the game runs fully offline. You play at your own pace, pause any time, and resume without worrying about online servers, lag, or monthly subscription fees.
Does the The Witcher 3 PS4 disc play on a PS5?
Yes, the The Witcher 3 PS4 disc plays on every PS5 with a disc drive through backwards compatibility. Insert the disc, install, and the game runs on PS5 hardware with faster loading. Owners of the PS4 version also qualify for a free upgrade to the dedicated PS5 edition released in December 2022, which adds higher resolution and ray tracing. So buying The Witcher 3 now protects your purchase if you upgrade your console later. Confirm your PS5 has the disc drive, since the Digital Edition cannot read discs.
What kind of game is The Witcher 3 and what is the story about?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an open-world action RPG set in a dark fantasy world inspired by Polish folklore. You play Geralt of Rivia, a trained monster hunter searching for Ciri, a young woman hunted by ghostly riders called the Wild Hunt. The game mixes sword combat, magic signs, potion brewing, and branching dialogue. Your choices shape which characters live, which kingdoms rise, and which of several endings you reach. The writing and side stories earned over 250 Game of the Year awards.
What age rating does The Witcher 3 carry and is it suitable for children?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt holds a PEGI 18 rating and an ESRB Mature 17+ rating. The game contains graphic violence, blood, strong language, nudity, and adult themes, so it is built for adult players. Parents buying for younger family members should treat it like an 18-rated film. The PS5 and PS4 both include parental controls that limit access by age rating and set daily playtime limits. We recommend supervision and age-appropriate judgment before handing the disc to teenagers.
Does this The Witcher 3 disc include the Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions?
The two major expansions, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine, are included only in the Complete Edition, also called the Game of the Year edition. Hearts of Stone adds over 10 hours of story, while Blood and Wine adds more than 30 hours in the new region of Toussaint. The standard edition contains the base game with free smaller add-ons.
Is The Witcher 3 worth KSh 3,700 in Kenya's gaming market?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt offers strong value at KSh 3,700 given its 100-plus hours of content. Most new PS4 and PS5 titles in Kenya sell between KSh 4,500 and KSh 8,000, so this price sits well below average for the length you receive. The game still ranks among the highest-rated RPGs a decade after release, scoring 92 out of 100 on Metacritic. For players who prefer one long story over several short games, the cost-per-hour beats almost any console title sold locally.
Do I need a PlayStation Plus subscription to play The Witcher 3?
No, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt needs no PlayStation Plus subscription because it is fully single-player and offline. PlayStation Plus is only required for online multiplayer in other games, which The Witcher 3 does not have. You insert the disc, install the game, and play with no recurring cost. This makes it a clean one-time purchase for Kenyan gamers who want to avoid monthly fees. Free game updates and patches still download automatically when your console connects to Wi-Fi.
