It\u2019s official, a new Witcher 3<\/em> expansion is coming 12 years after the game\u2019s release. The new Songs of the Past<\/em> DLC will reportedly bridge the story gap between The Wild Hunt<\/em> and The Witcher 4<\/em>. Here is everything we know so far, including its release date, story, and features.<\/p>\n As we reported in 2025<\/a>, there were leaks claiming a new Witcher 3<\/em> DLC was being worked on by CD Projekt Red. At the time, many thought the rumor was ridiculous. After all, who would release a new expansion for a game that came out over a decade ago? Well, CD Projekt Red has now confirmed<\/a> that the leaked DLC is not only real, but it will also be launching sooner than some expected.<\/p>\n CD Projekt Red announced The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt \u2013 Songs of the Past<\/em> is coming in 2027<\/strong>. It\u2019s a brand-new Witcher 3<\/em> expansion featuring Geralt of Rivia. Here is everything you need to know about the DLC:<\/p>\n The new Witcher 3<\/em> expansion Songs of the Past<\/em> release date has been confirmed for 2027<\/strong>. Unfortunately, CD Projekt Red hasn\u2019t revealed a specific month or date yet. We don\u2019t even have a potential release window. The only thing the studio has confirmed is that it\u2019s being co-developed with Fool\u2019s Theory and is still in development.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re currently co-developing the expansion with Fool\u2019s Theory, and we\u2019ll share more in late summer, so stay tuned!\u201d<\/p>\n However, we will likely get more information soon, as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt \u2013 Songs of the Past<\/em> was reportedly supposed to be revealed during a Blood and Wine<\/em> anniversary stream. CD Projekt Red instead announced the new Witcher 3<\/em> DLC early after it was accidentally leaked online early.<\/p>\n Finally, CD Projekt Red has announced that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em> now has new PC requirements due to the expansion. Outside of confirming that it will have \u201cnew content\u201d will be added to the game, the Polish studio didn\u2019t elaborate further on what we can expect from Songs of the Past<\/em>.<\/p>\n Here are the new Witcher 3<\/em> minimum PC requirements for the Songs of the Past<\/em> expansion:<\/p>\n While not confirmed, previous leaks about the new Witcher 3<\/em> expansion claim it will bridge the gap between The Wild Hunt<\/em> and The Witcher 4<\/em>. If true, Songs of the Past<\/em> could directly tie into the next installment, which stars Ciri as its protagonist.<\/p>\n \n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.vice.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u2019s official, a new Witcher 3 expansion is coming 12 years after the game\u2019s release.
