However, the Polish studio officially announced Songs of the Past in May after numerous rumors about it surfaced online.CD Projekt Red originally considered releasing The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past in 2026 but moved it to 2027 to achieve “the best possible result” for players. It will launch on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The studio has also described the expansion as an indirect, nonliteral “prologue” to the Ciri-led The Witcher 4.The post CD Projekt Red Confirms New Witcher 3: Songs of the Past Footage for Gamescom appeared first on VICE.
