The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Mission List
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has a total of 60 main missions, which are split across three acts. Throughout the game, you’ll explore several regions across the Continent, and you’ll play as both Geralt and Ciri.
A majority of the missions in the game can be played in any order, but some will lead directly into others. Excluding one or two, all of the missions in the game have a level requirement, so it’s a good idea to try and complete as much side content as you can alongside the main quests so things don’t get too difficult.
We’ve put together a list of all missions in the game below, organised by act. A note of caution, some of the mission titles may include spoilers!
Prologue
The prologue of The Witcher 3 is mainly set in White Orchard, although the beginning and end see you explore Kaer Morhen and Vizima. This section of the game serves as the tutorial, introducing you to the main gameplay mechanics before things get serious.
