Roach is Geralt’s trusty steed but until now she’s only been rideable, despite the strong bond players form with her over the hours and hours of playtime. Now, thanks to the recent upgrade patch for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, Roach can be given the love and affection she deserves. Watch on YouTube The Witcher 3: PS5 vs Xbox Series X Hands-on Petting Roach is something of a secret, however.
