We've Seen The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past in Action, and It's Looking Like Another Blood & Wine | gamescom 2026

Summary
At gamescom 2026, we had the chance to see The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past in action, a brand-new expansion that looks set to rival the legendary Blood and Wine. In the demo, Geralt is drawn into a cursed garden of thorns to find his missing bard, Dandelion. The atmosphere is dark and mysterious, with deadly flora and arcane traps lurking everywhere. We witnessed new combat mechanics, such as using silver swords and Igni to burn away entangling vines, and new exploration elements involving deciphering ancient verses to solve environmental puzzles. The expansion appears to be substantial, with a rumored playtime of over 20 hours, a new map area, fresh enemy types, and armor sets, including a sleek new Wolf School gear. Several side quests deeply woven into the main narrative will explore the long-standing friendship between Geralt and Dandelion. The expansion is slated for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch later in 2026. If this preview is any indication, CD Projekt Red is once again delivering high-quality, substantial content that will keep players engaged for dozens of hours. For fans of The Witcher 3, Songs of the Past is shaping up to be a must-play expansion, building on the legacy of Blood and Wine.
