CD Projekt RED has announced two large expansions for its upcoming RPG The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. They are: Hearts of Stone and Blood & Wine. Both will be available for all three platforms.
“With the development of Wild Hunt coming to an end, the team has embarked upon the creation of two new really big adventures set in The Witcher universe. We remember the time when add-on disks truly expanded games by delivering meaningful content. As gamers, we’d like to bring that back. We’ve said in the past that if we ever decide to release paid content, it will be vast in size and represent real value for the money. Both our expansions offer more hours of gameplay than quite a few standalone games out there.” - Marcin Iwiński, CD Projekt RED co-founder.
Hearts of Stone is estimated to be around 10 hours long and sends Geralt into 'the wilds of No Man’s Land and the nooks and alleys of Oxenfurt, where he’ll try to complete a contract from the mysterious Man of Glass'. It will release in October.
Blood & Wine is expected to be even more substantial, with an estimated completion time of 20 hours. It will introduce an entirely new game region, called Toussaint. It will release in Q1 2016.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will launch on 19th May on PS4, Xbox One and Windows PC.
