After many rumours and much speculation, CD Projekt Red has announced a third expansion for The Witcher 3 really is happening. It’s called Songs of the Past and it’s coming to PS5 (no PS4 version) in 2027.
The developer pitches the DLC as the following: “Songs of the Past will return players to the role of legendary monster slayer Geralt of Rivia for a brand new adventure when it launches in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.”
CD Projekt Red is creating the expansion in collaboration with Fools Theory, which previously made The Thaumaturge and is currently producing The Witcher 1 Remake. More details on Songs of the Past will be released in late Summer 2026.
When it launches, Songs of the Past will be a brand new expansion for a 12-year-old game. Its first two pieces of DLC, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine launched within the first two years of the RPG launching. Now, CD Projekt Red is returning for more story content over a decade later.
Of course, having put out Cyberpunk 2077, it’s returning to The Witcher universe with The Witcher 4, which is currently in development.
You will need the most up-to-date PS5 version of The Witcher 3 to play Songs of the Past next year; the original PS4 edition has been abandoned for this content drop. Will you be playing the DLC in 2027? Let us know in the comments below.
