CD Projekt has officially announced a third expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, confirming that Songs of the Past will arrive in 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. The publisher said Fool’s Theory is developing the expansion, with CD Projekt Red co-developing it.
The timing gives the studio another major Witcher release to line up behind its next full game, The Witcher 4, as well as a remake of The Witcher 1 and a multiplayer title set in the same universe. For fans who have spent years treating The Witcher 3 as a finished chapter, the news extends one of gaming’s most durable fantasy worlds rather than reopening it for nostalgia alone.
CD Projekt said it had originally planned to make the reveal during its REDstreams session on May 28, 2026, set for 11am ET and 4pm BST, a stream tied to the tenth anniversary of Blood and Wine, the game’s fan-favorite expansion. That expectation had fueled talk that the anniversary broadcast might double as a new-content announcement, especially after last summer’s The Witcher 4 tech demo, which the company said was representative of how that game will look on a base PS5 console.
Instead, the studio moved the announcement out ahead of the stream and said more details on Songs of the Past will come in late summer 2026. That means the anniversary event is no longer the place where the expansion’s full shape will be laid out, even if it still marks a milestone for the series and for players who have been following CD Projekt’s Witcher plans across several projects at once. The publisher is also working on The Witcher 4, the remake of the original Witcher game and a multiplayer game set in the same universe.
The shift leaves one clear takeaway: Songs of the Past is real, it is a third expansion for The Witcher 3, and it is not coming soon. The reveal answers the long-running question of whether the studio had one more major add-on in reserve, but the finer details will have to wait until late summer 2026, when CD Projekt says it will finally show more.
