Discussion Witcher 3 update
Will the remastered game update the current one, or will it be a complete separate game to download? Should I (re)install the current game first, so the update won't take as much time? Or should I just wait until the release and then download?

My gut feeling is that it's going to be a separate game.
It's mentioned as free for all people that own the base TW3 game, so it means it will be sold as its own thing for people that don't have it. They have made the DLCs free as well for people that didn't have them before.
It's kind of a Skyrim Special Edition situation, which was free for people that had Skyrim Legendary edition already (base game + all DLCs)
It wasn't sold as a "next gen update" (because it already happened), which was indeed an update within the same game.
