The Witcher 3 developer CD Projekt Red has announced the new Songs of the Past expansion for the game, which comes 11 years after its second expansion, Blood and Wine. Co-developed with Fool’s Theory–a studio that includes several Witcher 3 veterans and previously released The Thaumaturge in 2024–Songs of the Past will be revealed in more detail later this year.
What CDPR has revealed is that the expansion will launch in 2027 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S versions of The Witcher 3, and it will once again revolve around Geralt of Rivia. Rumors about a new Witcher 3 DLC began picking up earlier this year, with initial reports speculating that the DLC could see players visit the far-eastern destination of Zerrikania. New reports claimed that the DLC will instead reuse existing assets and will be set in the territories of Temeria and Redania.
CDPR has also confirmed that system requirements for The Witcher 3 on PC will be updated to “ensure smooth performance and compatibility” going forward. This means that any Witcher 3 player running the game on a Windows 10 operating system will need to upgrade to Windows 11 if they want to keep playing it.
