CD Projekt Red announced that ‘The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’ will receive a third expansion called ‘Songs of the Past’ in 2027. The new content will be released exclusively for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, with no versions for previous-generation consoles. The expansion will be co-developed with Fool’s Theory, a studio formed by veterans of the original game. ‘Songs of the Past’ will bring Geralt of Rivia back for a new adventure, but no details about the narrative, setting, or size of the expansion were revealed. CD Projekt Red had planned to announce the expansion during a live stream to mark the 10-year anniversary of ‘Blood and Wine’, but the title leaked beforehand.
Co-Development and Details
‘Songs of the Past’ will be co-developed with Fool’s Theory, a studio founded by industry veterans who worked on ‘The Witcher 3’ itself. CD Projekt Red did not reveal details about the narrative, setting, or size of the expansion, but promised more information at the end of the second half of 2026. Players may wonder if the new expansion will be as good as the previous ones. In any case, it’s clear that the development team this time made an effort to make the game better than the original. Another interesting fact is that CD Projekt Red confirmed that ‘The Witcher 3’ will receive a technical update to accompany the new content.
The expansion leaves players anxious, considering that the second expansion, ‘Blood and Wine’, seemed to have definitively ended the Witcher’s journey. Fans of RPGs may remember the emotional impact of the journey to the end of the series in the last episode of the series. The news also means that players can explore new features and abilities. The game, released in 2015, has already accumulated over a thousand industry awards and is considered one of the most acclaimed RPGs in history. With the third expansion, CD Projekt Red promises to bring Geralt of Rivia back for a new adventure, with new stories, characters, and locations to explore. Furthermore, the expansion will be an opportunity for players to revisit the world of ‘The Witcher 3’ with new eyes.
