Further hints point to Witcher 3 expansion in 2026

Following analyst predictions of DLC bridging to The Witcher 4, new indications suggest CD Projekt Red is planning an expansion for the 2015 game, potentially launching in 2026 amid sequel preparations.

Building on December 2025 forecasts from analyst Mateusz Chrzanowski, who predicted a paid add-on for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in May 2026 as a prologue to The Witcher 4, recent developments indicate the studio is advancing such plans. The 11-year-old title, with over 60 million copies sold, could see fresh content before the sequel's expected 2027 release.

No official announcement has come from CD Projekt Red, but the speculation underscores the game's lasting appeal and the studio's pattern of post-launch support. This potential expansion would extend adventures in Geralt's world, easing the transition to the new trilogy starring Ciri.
