In a significant development for fans of The Witcher 3, there are whispers of a potential new expansion on the horizon. Speculation suggests that before transitioning to CD Projekt Red’s upcoming Witcher project, players might delve back into the world of The Witcher 3 for another adventure.
Recently, Polish industry analyst Mateusz Chrzanowski hinted that a fresh expansion for The Witcher 3 could see the light of day in May 2026. This news, first reported by VGC, has sparked excitement among the gaming community.
Adding to the intrigue, rumors of a secret DLC for the acclaimed 2015 RPG have been circulating. Back in late 2025, Polish gaming insider Borys Nieśpielak hinted at ongoing DLC development at Fool’s Theory, the studio currently tasked with remaking The Witcher 1 under CD Projekt Red’s umbrella.
Eurogamer further investigated Nieśpielak’s claims, revealing that multiple independent sources had corroborated the information. The trail led to an earnings call transcript from CD Projekt Red, where the chief financial officer hinted at the possibility of new content impacting their upcoming projects.
Although CD Projekt Red refrained from confirming or denying the speculations, the potential for a new Witcher 3 expansion has stirred curiosity about its narrative direction. With the highly anticipated Witcher 4 looming on the horizon, fans are eager to see how this additional content may bridge the gap between the two games.
As the series undergoes a significant shift with Ciri poised to assume the lead role, the prospect of new content after almost a decade since the last DLC release has kindled enthusiasm among Witcher enthusiasts. Should Fool’s Theory be indeed involved in the DLC, it could offer insights into their remake efforts and possibly tie into the upcoming Witcher installment.
With expectations running high for any updates on both the DLC and the remake, the Witcher community eagerly anticipates further details in the near future.
