Katakan is a Creature/Monster in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

"Melitele, Great Mother, protect us from evil, from unclean devils and foul demons, and most of all from the clutches of katakans and nekurats...
— fragment of a prayer

Katakans and their more dangerous kin, nekurats, are the embodiments of human fear. They hide in the shadows. They feed on blood. They resemble enormous bats —though with long fangs and even longer talons. And, as if that weren't terror enough, they can turn invisible, waiting unseen while dread of their unpreventable attack overwhelms their victim."

Trivia & Lore

• Notes on Lore and players notes go here.
• Using Quen and Igni are the best option to destroy this opponent. This beast attacks fast so quick attacks are recommended and quickly using Quen after your shield has been broken. Doing this over and over again will eventually bring the beasts health down and kill him.
