The Witcher 3 Is Getting A New Expansion, But Not On Switch

CD Projekt Red has finally announced the long-rumoured third expansion for The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, titled Songs of the Past.

Developer Fools Theory, which previously worked on The Thaumaturge and is currently conjuring up a remake of the original Witcher game, is joining CDPR to create the new DLC. It’s scheduled to launch in 2027 for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, but unfortunately there’s no Switch version in the pipeline.

We’re not surprised, mind you. With the Switch 2 in full swing, the original console is looking exceptionally long in the tooth these days, and there’s currently no sign of a potential ‘Switch 2 Edition’ for The Witcher III (as much as we’d love one).

In fact, CDPR has gone on record to alter the minimum system requirements for the new content, suggesting that it will look better than ever.

Still, considering the game was marketed as a ‘Complete Edition’ back in the day, we can’t help but feel a bit deflated at the notion of a completely new expansion skipping the Switch entirely. We’ve got our fingers crossed for a Switch 2 upgrade at some point in the future. Even if the new expansion doesn’t come with it, we reckon The Witcher III will look and run great on the successor console.
