How to set up HDR in The Witcher 3 (Next-Gen)

  • Open the game’s own HDR calibration (Settings → Display/Video) — it overrides the system calibration, so set it per the on-screen patterns.
  • Good base HDR (added in the next-gen update). Set Max Monitor Brightness to your panel peak.
  • The calibration test image is a bit inaccurate vs the actual game, so trust your eyes.
