So that you do not waste time replaying The Witcher 3 in search of them, we have collected these most interesting references here for you.

Breaking bad

Breaking Bad in The Witcher 3

When it comes to Breaking Bad The Witcher directly and subtly quotes him. First, there is an achievement called "Cooking" that Geralt can get for learning 12 potion formulas. But these are just flowers.

To the north of Novigrad there is a cave with illusions. Inside there is a laboratory with the document "Notes of the Alchemist". Alchemist complains about his assistant Jester, which had “One task. ONE". Also that heit's better to leave loudly than die slowly in the hospital". There is no dispute as to who wrote this document, because it is signed by the name of Walter White.

There is another reference - directly west of Erde thug who looks like Walter White, prepares fisstekh. He looks a lot like Heisenberg, except for the hat.

Fight Club

Fight Club in The Witcher 3

This reference is somewhat expected, but still interesting. It is quite obvious that Geralt's opponent during the story should be Tyler Durden from Fight Club. It happens during the quest "Fists of Fury" – the last fistfight in Novigrad.

Not only does Geralt fight Darden, but there is also a text in the game, the Code of Hansa Lot, which enforces the rules of Fight Club. This document is located in a guarded treasure south of the ruins of Fort Astre. Geralt can read the codex but can't talk about it.

Harry Potter

Goblet of Fire in The Witcher 3

Witchcraft, monsters, and spells are just some of the similarities between The Witcher 3 and Harry Potter. Maybe you didn't know, but the real one The Goblet of Fire exists on the continent.

At the auction of the Borsodi brothers during the quest "Open Sesame!" in a glass case you can find an artifact called the Goblet of Fire. Even Geralt had never heard of this object. Perhaps it was brought through a portal, or perhaps it came from the continent. Whatever the assumption, this the same bowl as in the Harry Potter universe.

Another interesting mention of this franchise occurs during the quest "Oxenfurt Bloodsucker", where the monster telepathically whispers to Geralt about his bloodlust. Maybe it's a Basilisk somewhere in the pipes?

The Wizard of Oz

The Wizard of Oz in The Witcher 3

The Witcher 3 pays homage to fairy tales and folk legends. An entire kingdom is dedicated to them. During the quest, Geralt is transferred to the Land of a Thousand Tales, where the famous yellow brick road es. While he is there, some unknown (wicked witch) character can be seen crushed, apparently by Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother's house. Only ruby ​​slippers are visible. There is also a book, Journey Between Worlds, which mentions a land called Zo (i.e. "Oz" spelled backwards).

The Addams Family

When it comes to the spooky, gothic, and fantasy Addams family in The Witcher 3, there's a pretty sweet pun that only true fans of the two franchises notice. The Witcher 3 has the village of Larch, named after the butler of the Addams family, located east of Lindenvale. Unfortunately, in the Russian translation, the play on words was lost - the village was called "Svorki".

Batman

Batman in The Witcher 3

Catwoman, Batman and Robin exist on the continent as robbers. However, here they are just Selina, Bruce and, unexpectedly, Robin. In the Blood and Wine quest, there is a note from Robin to Bruce (apparently Selina's lover) about "cat face" of his girlfriend. Selena is buried in Beauclair Cemetery. It is not surprising that there are a lot of jewelry there, and a cat is purring nearby.

In the Ghosts of the Past quest, a bounty hunter causes trouble for the player. However, Geralt considers this hero just a clown. It's funny, considering that Arno Wester's favorite killing technique is very similar to how The Joker changed his face in the Batman franchise.

Odyssey

Odyssey in The Witcher 3

Homer's Odyssey is the oldest Easter egg in The Witcher 3. Sometimes the game's plot follows in the footsteps of Odessa Taka - or Odysseus of Ithaca - and his exploits.

In Velen, near the village of Heatherton, there is a guarded treasure that has a flock of sheep. lies nearby The one-eyed monster from the Odyssey is the Cyclops. In the text of the Odyssey, these sheep were used to hide from the Cyclopes, after they were blinded, of course. And in the bestiary there is a mention that: “In order to fight him (Cyclops), it is best to use a sharpened wooden stake to gouge out one of his eyes».

Another mention of the epic refers to the quest "Lord of Undvik". The team es by the sirens and their alluring singing. The helmsman covers his ears to protect himself. Clever but he fails to hear the crew's warning, and subsequently crashes the ship on the rocks.

Lord of the Rings

The Lord of the Rings in The Witcher 3

The most notable reference in the game is the moment in which Geralt hires Zoltanto the fight, protecting Ciri from the Wild Hunt. Zoltan answers in the manner of Gimli the dwarf: "You will have me and my axe."

On the quest "False profit" you can find a note from Smeagol Serkis, whose name is a direct reference to the character Smeagol (aka Gollum) from The Lord of the Rings. By the way, this document lies next to the spoon-key. "My dear, my dear, my treasure, my spoon!" - this is how the character himself speaks of his "joy". These habits are also very similar to the behavior of Gollum.

Star wars

Star Wars in The Witcher 3

The mention may be small, but this reference is epochal. Another Mandalorian bounty hunter roams the continent. Jumping across worlds, why not include a galaxy far, far away in your franchise? The Sad Story of the Grossbart Brothers is a quest during which Geralt meets the bounty hunter Junge Frett. This character is direct reference to Jango Fett from Star Wars, clone template and "father" of Boba Fett's first on-screen Mandalorian. Jenge looks like a local skelliger here, but still remains the most famous bounty hunter in the galaxy - on the continent.

Asterix

Asterix and Obelix in The Witcher 3

Besides the annoying "The Customer is Always Right" quest that mimics a scene from The Twelve Labors of Asterix, The Witcher 3 contains another nod to popular French comics. In Velen, during the quest The Soothsayer Will Tell the Truth, the old sage jokes that he got his magical powers by falling into the witches' cauldron.

This clairvoyant bears a striking resemblance to Obelix, Asterix's best companion, who acquired his superhuman strength by falling into the village druid's magic potion. The secret drink strengthens all the Gallic villages in the fight against Caesar's army. However, if you use it too much, there are bound to be side effects.

What about the "The customer is always right" quest? If you have not ed it, then we can share this reference. During the mission, Gralt needs to get A38 certificateto pick up his money, which an old acquaintance left him in a bank cell. But, like Asterix and Obelix, he will simply be driven around the floors, dragging into the whirlpool of bureaucracy more and more.
