The Witcher 3 has been one of the most popular RPGs as of late, and with the latest port that brings it to next-generation consoles, more players can jump in and start their adventure. So, whether you're playing for the first time or coming back for a second go, take a look at our guide for finding the White Tiger of the West armour.

How to find the White Tiger of the West armour

Before you go looking for the White Tiger of the West armour in the game, you will need to head to the 'My Rewards' tab on the main menu, where you can redeem it alongside some of the other new additions that are part of the next-gen update. 

After the armour set has been redeemed, you will need to fast travel to the palace in Vizima. If you start a new game, you will need to wait until finishing the White Orchard prologue scene, but if you load into a previous save where it's unlocked, you can just travel there straight away.

It's also worth noting that if you start a new game and finish the prologue, you will receive a letter from Yennefer that directs you toward the armour set in the palace. 

Once you arrive in Vizima, head left into the courtyard and follow the covered walkway, taking a right at the corner. Head into the first door on your left after the turn, and then head through another door into the adjoining room.

Go toward the window with a chest underneath and then loot it to get the full White Tiger of the West armour set, along with the Nine-Tailed Vixen Steel Sword and Nine-Tailed Vixen Silver Sword

All of the items require you to be level 11 before they can be used, and the White Tiger of the West set is medium armour, meaning it can take you a fair way into the game before you need to replace it.
