The Witcher 3 DLC 2026: The Songs of the Past News

1 min read

The reason this keyword is trending in 2026 is a single announcement: a third expansion, coming in 2027, made with a new studio partner.

Searches for the Witcher 3 DLC 2026 are almost all about one piece of news: CD Projekt Red confirmed a third story expansion is in development, over a decade after the base game shipped.

What was announced

The expansion is called Songs of the Past, and it is being co-developed with Fool's Theory, the studio behind Lords of the Fallen's later updates and, notably, the Witcher remake project. It targets a 2027 release.

Platforms

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. Nintendo platforms have not been mentioned as part of the announcement.

What it is not

This is not a small cosmetic pack. Framing it alongside Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine — rather than the free updates that came before it — suggests a full paid story expansion on the same scale.

What is still unknown

Story details, price, and an exact release date have not been shared. CD Projekt Red has a track record of long silences between expansion announcements and actual release windows, so treat 2027 as a target rather than a promise.

What to do until then

Nothing changes for existing owners — the base game and both current expansions play exactly as they always have.
