Update: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt now R399 on Xbox One

Update: 2 September 2016, 10.20am: The PlayStation Store now reflects the price decrease on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt at R429, making it R30 more expensive than the Xbox Store.

Now that The Witcher 3: Game of the Year Edition is out, it may be the right time for everyone to pick up the base game. The official Microsoft store now lists the stand-alone title — The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — for R399, which is quite a steal.

That price point will include all updates and free DLC, but none of the paid expansions. You’ll have to purchase those separately or in the GoTY edition for R596.50 — this is already cheaper than the boxed retail version, which carries an RRP or R799 in SA.

Curiously, the PlayStation Store still lists the base game and GoTY edition for R599 each. There is always a chance the price will drop once the site is updated.

Just a few days ago, the game was updated to version 1.3 with a sizable update. This fixed a slew of issues and included a lot of changes as well.
