Almost five years after its initial release, CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remains one of the biggest and most incredibly written RPGs ever made. Due to its sheer scale, it's not surprising that this award-winning game was bursting with Easter Eggs that ranged from creepy stone angels to Game Of Thrones, Lord Of The Rings, and Star Wars references - just to name a few.

And with the inclusion of the huge Blood And Wine DLC, the list of secrets only grew. However, one of these secrets required using creative means to reach an out of bounds location.

When using the freecamera mod to have a look around the sunny land of Toussaint, user Pippo311lp discovered a grassy plain hidden outside of the game's map. When using the mod to transport Geralt to the secret area, they stumbled upon a canvas on an easel that reveals a rather touching photo of the game's development team.

Reportedly, the team over at CD Projekt Red waited until they released the game's final piece of content before including this lovely Easter Egg in the DLC. And by placing it in such an inaccessible location, it's like they expected players would use hacks.
