The Witcher 3 will be getting another DLC expansion in 2027

Geralt's story continues

It’s the year 2015 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has just released with critical acclaim. There is no doubt this is not only the Game of the Year, but possibly one of the greatest video games of all time. 11 years later, CD Projekt Red has announced that Geralt’s story will continue in 2027.

If you’re not familiar with The Witcher 3 and the game’s previous expansion DLCs, then brace yourself. Not only is The Witcher 3 a colossal game with a tremendous amount of gameplay, but the game’s storyline is deep and triggers just about every emotion you can think of. The franchise was already known for its lore, but CD Projekt Red, the developers behind the game, somehow managed to take brilliant lore and incorporate it into a phenomenal experience.

As mentioned, The Witcher 3 has already received two expansions, Hearts of Stone released in 2015, and Blood and Wine released in 2016. Both expansions also received high praise and could be argued to have more content than some standalone games. This is the main reason why The Witcher receiving another DLC over a decade after the game’s original release is such a big deal.

The Witcher 3 has already sold over 60 million copies and won more than 250 Game of the Year awards. Its new DLC, Songs of the Past, will likely continue to move the needle even further, especially now that the game can take advantage of newer technologies that didn’t exist back in 2015. CD Projekt Red will share more details about the upcoming DLC later this summer.
