The Witcher 3 next-gen update adds new quests and armor that you can get for free. Previously, we discussed how you can get Henry Cavill’s Witcher armor from the Netflix series. This Witcher 3 guide covers how you can get the new Samurai White Tiger Armor and swords.
Getting The Samurai White Tiger Armor In The Witcher 3
The Samurai armor in question is the White Tiger armor. The steel and silver swords are the Nine-Tailed Vixen swords. You can find the armor and the swords inside a chest in the Royal Palace in Vizima. The exact location of the chest is shown in the map below:
The chest is right next to a window.
Loot the chest to get the following items:
- Letter
- Nine-Tailed Vixen steel sword
- Nine-Tailed Vixen silver sword
- White Tiger of the West armor
- White Tiger of the West trouser
- White Tiger of the West boots
- White Tiger of the West vambraces
Since you visit the Royal Palace in Vizima as part of the prologue, you can get this armor and sword set pretty early on if you are playing the Witcher 3 for the first time or started a new game. Note that you will not be able to wear the armor until you are level 11.
