CD Projekt Red has confirmed Songs of the Past, a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt arriving in 2027 and co-developed with Fools Theory. The DLC targets only current-generation platforms and comes with significantly updated PC requirements including doubled RAM and tripled VRAM demands.

Notably, it will not be available on the Xbox One or PS4, the platforms on which the game originally launched.

CDPR stated that owners of older rigs that could barely run the game 12 years ago will likely need to upgrade.
