On May 27, CD Projekt Red announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3 called Songs of the Past, causing tremendous excitement among fans of this classic action RPG. So much so that, on May 29, just two days later, the game experienced its highest peak of players in many months, reaching the staggering figure of 29,166 simultaneous players.

On May 27, CD Projekt Red announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3 called Songs of the Past, causing tremendous excitement among fans of this classic action RPG.
So much so that, on May 29, just two days later, the game experienced its highest peak of players in many months, reaching the staggering figure of 29,166 simultaneous players. Spectacular numbers for any single-player game, but even more so for one that is not a new release.
The Witcher never goes out of style
According to Alox, a fan of CD Projekt, this is the highest peak of active players in The Witcher 3 since February 2022. And there was a good reason for that. The game was part of the Steam Lunar Sale and had a discount that brought it down to just $7.99, causing many people to buy it for the first time, at least on PC.
The correlation between strong discounts and an increased flow of players is something that has been studied and proven, but so is the announcement of new content. It is not necessary for that new content to be released for players to decide to return to play, drawn by curiosity and the desire to enjoy a game they already know they like and want to remember, taking advantage of the hype that this kind of news generates.
Although Songs of the Past does not have a release date yet, we know it will be released in 2027 and that we will have more news about it before the end of this summer. With CD Projekt describing this expansion as “a journey through Geralt’s memory,” it all points to it being a way to establish the franchise ahead of The Witcher 4, where we will change protagonists: the game will be led by Ciri, Geralt of Rivia’s daughter.
Therefore, while we will have to wait, it seems that fans have already found a way to ease the wait: replaying the complete game.
CD Projekt has unexpectedly announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Titled Songs of the Past, it will put us in the shoes of Geralt of Rivia, and it is being co-developed by Fool’s Theory, the team behind the RPG The Thaumaturge, and for now, we don’t know anything else except that we will learn more “by the end of summer.” A complete surprise, considering that the original game was released eleven years ago. An expansion for which we will have to wait. Although it seems we won’t have to wait long to know all the details about the expansion. CD Projekt has announced that they will broadcast […]

An expansion that will require waiting
Although it seems we won’t have to wait long to know all the details about the expansion. CD Projekt has announced that they will broadcast a special live event on Thursday, May 28 at five in the afternoon, Spanish mainland time. Although they haven’t specifically announced what they will talk about, they have said that the event will feature Kacper Niepokólczycki and Magdalena Zych, and that “we will return once again to the land of knights, vineyards, and vampires.”
There have been many rumors for months about this expansion. It is likely to be a way to link the events of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with those of the upcoming The Witcher 4, according to those same rumors, it seems that CD Projekt wants to start rekindling interest in the witcher among its fans.
Now, if you want to play Songs of the Past you should know that you have to stay up to date. The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past will be released in 2027 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. So if we were thinking of playing it on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, we’re afraid you’ll have to pay again to be able to play it. Because the world keeps moving forward. Even The Witcher’s.
The developer Rebel Wolves, founded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, former director of The Witcher 3, is working on a new RPG titled The Blood of Dawnwalker, set in a 14th century Europe still suffering the aftermath of war and plague. This title features Coen, a half-vampire protagonist, whose rich and complex narrative is inspired by the successful The Witcher 3. Tomaszkiewicz has expressed his comfort with the comparisons between both projects, stating that he feels “really confident” in his game. The similarities exist and they are aware of them Unlike other RPGs of […]
The developer Rebel Wolves, founded by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, former director of The Witcher 3, is working on a new RPG titled The Blood of Dawnwalker, set in a 14th century Europe still suffering the aftermath of war and plague.
Unlike other open-world RPGs, The Blood of Dawnwalker promises significant innovations, such as a day/night cycle that limits Coen’s vampiric abilities to the night, and a time pressure system in side missions, which will force players to make decisions within a set time. This contrasts with the freedom offered in Cyberpunk 2077, where exploration was minimally restricted.
The company, which has 160 employees, seeks to maintain a size that favors good communication and creativity in the development process. Tomaszkiewicz has expressed his desire to avoid Rebel Wolves becoming a company the size of CD Projekt, preferring that the company continues to focus on its identity and creativity in game design.
In recent years, rumors about a possible expansion for The Witcher 3, the acclaimed work of CD Projekt Red, have persisted. Various insiders have reported details suggesting that a continuation of Geralt of Rivia’s adventures could be on the way. Fool’s Theory, a Polish studio, has been mentioned as the one responsible for developing this additional content, planting the seed of speculation among the gaming community. A studio familiar with The Witcher, Fool’s Theory not only assists CD Projekt with the remake of the first The Witcher, but could also […]

A family study with The Witcher
Fool’s Theory not only assists CD Projekt in the remake of the first The Witcher, but it could also be involved in the development of this anticipated expansion.
Recently, the studio conducted a survey among players of its latest RPG, The Thaumaturge, in which it inquired about interest in an expansion or sequel. This gesture suggests that the studio plans to reinvest in its own projects and could open new possibilities in the future.
While waiting for the official announcement, it is known that CD Projekt Red is busy on multiple fronts: developing The Witcher 4 and the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077. The company has brought in numerous talents in the development field, indicating its commitment to quality and the expansion of its franchises.
It is expected that in September the veracity of the rumors about the expansion of The Witcher 3 will be confirmed. This could be a key moment not only for the fans of the saga but also for the immediate future of Fool’s Theory and its ability to diversify in video game development. Meanwhile, fans of the franchise remain alert to any news that may arise, eager to return to the world of Geralt and its complex plots.

The ‘Brothers in Arms’ mod for The Witcher 3 has received a significant update, restoring a new storyline related to Shani’s fate during the Hearts of Stone expansion.
This modification, available on Nexus Mods, includes an optional ending that enhances the narrative and provides more depth to the character of Shani, explaining her return in this expansion.
According to the restored content, Shani’s fate was in danger if the player chose to confront the villain Gaunter O’Dimm. The recovered scenes include dialogues that had been preserved in the game’s files, suggesting that the storyline was cut at an advanced stage of development.
A mod worth installing if you like The Witcher 3
All the restored material is meticulously integrated into the game and maintains the original quality, with animations and lip-syncing that meet the standards of CD Projekt Red’s masterpiece.
Players can now customize their experience and decide which mod elements they want to activate, thanks to an extensive in-game menu. This flexibility allows each player to adjust their experience according to their preferences without compromising the integrity of the original game.
The Witcher 3 Online mod has been released.
The mod by “Rejuvenate´´ brings true multiplayer to The Witcher 3. You can now join servers, explore the world with friends, complete quests, and play through the story together.
Despite the benefits that the addition of this argument brings, some critics believe that the ending, where the character Gaunter O’Dimm threatens Shani’s life, may seem a bit abrupt and unconvincing compared to the already established narrative.
However, the mod offers the option to choose, allowing players to decide whether they want to experience this new narrative or keep the game as it was originally released.
It is recommended that those using other mods utilize Script Merger to avoid conflicts and ensure a smooth gaming experience.

Meanwhile, players have turned to exploring new ways to enjoy the title, one of which is a mod that allows for multiplayer gameplay.
A mod to add online to The Witcher 3
Developed by the creator known as rejuvenate, the mod called Witcher Online is available on NexusMods and provides users with the option to connect with other players and experience the rich narrative of the game in company. To use this mod, it is essential to have a legitimate copy of the latest version (4.04 or higher) of The Witcher 3, accessible through both Steam and GOG. This ensures that players have access to the latest improvements and features of the game.
Witcher Online not only allows the creation of custom characters but also social interaction through a floating chat and various features to relax, such as enjoying moments in a tavern. Although the exact number of players that can join a single map is not clear, the promotional material shows at least five users on screen at the same time, suggesting that the possibilities for socialization are broad.
Players are now waiting for more news about The Witcher 4 or any other content related to Geralt of Rivia, which continues to fuel interest in this universe. The combination of a possible new official content and the growing use of mods like Witcher Online promises to keep fans of The Witcher 3 engaged and excited about what is to come.

According to reports from IGN, the project is in an advanced stage of development. Is The Witcher 4 on the horizon? The new expansion would be set in a desert environment, which could correspond to the region of Zerrikania, and it may possibly serve as a narrative link to the anticipated The Witcher 4, which is planned for 2027.

Recently, rumors have emerged about the development of a third expansion for the acclaimed video game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, aimed at a planned release for May 2026. According to reports from IGN, the project is in an advanced stage of development.
Is The Witcher 4 on the horizon?
The new expansion would be set in a desert environment, which could correspond to the region of Zerrikania, and possibly will serve as a narrative link to the anticipated The Witcher 4, which is planned for 2027.
Since the last expansion, Blood and Wine, was released, ten years have passed, adding a sense of nostalgia and excitement to the possibility of this new content. The expansion is expected to be comparable in size to Blood and Wine, so players will be able to enjoy a rich experience in story and exploration, available only on the most powerful platforms, such as PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Fool’s Theory, the studio currently working on the remake of the first game in the saga, would be responsible for developing this expansion, which can provide an additional incentive for players looking for a renewed and high-quality experience. However, as is common in the video game industry, it is essential to take this news with caution until an official announcement is made by CD Projekt RED.
The possibility that this expansion could be a spin-off, like a The Witcher 3.5, has also been mentioned, which opens up a range of interesting narrative options. We will be on the lookout for any updates and official announcements that confirm this anticipated expansion of The Witcher universe.
It’s the end of the year, you have a little free time and you’re considering playing something. We know. We’ve been there. Because it’s the Steam sales, you know, and if you’re here it’s because you need to know which ones you can’t miss, the best ones. There are too many to choose from and that’s why we picked the eight that will make your eyes sparkle. The eight that, believe us, will make your end of the year perfect. Slay the Spire (€2.29 | -90%) The early access version of a game that is a candidate for GOTY 2026, Slay the Spire, will be released in March […]
It’s the end of the year, you have a little free time, and you’re thinking about playing something. We know. We’ve been there. Because it’s Steam sale time, you know, and if you’re here, it’s because you need to know which ones you can’t miss—the best ones. There are too many to choose from, and that’s why we’ve picked the eight that will make your eyes sparkle. The eight that, believe us, will make your end of the year perfect.
In March, the early access version of a candidate for GOTY 2026, Slay the Spire 2, will be released. Perhaps to celebrate this, the studio has put the original game at an absolutely ridiculous price: €2.29. You have paid for coffees that are more expensive than this game, and believe us, it will not only give you more energy than any coffee you have ever had, but it will also provide you with infinite hours in one of the best roguelikes and deckbuilders in history. At least until we see what its sequel has to offer and whether it can surpass the original.
Speaking of potentially infinite games for ridiculous prices, paying less than 3 euros for The Witcher 3 feels almost like an insult. Between 50 and 60 hours to complete just the main story, and you could go up to between 100 and 200 if you get distracted or want to do everything, this is a game from which you will get everything you want for every euro paid and then some. Because even though the Netflix series is not at its best, it is still The Witcher. Just because Netflix hasn’t known how to exploit it doesn’t mean it’s bad now.
We continue with games that you won’t finish this year or the next, and that also have a television series. Because for a ridiculous price you can get Fallout 76, the game that will shape the upcoming seasons of the Fallout series on Prime Video. What does that mean? That if you are enjoying the series and want to get ahead of what is going to happen, the perfect place to start with the games is here. And not just because it keeps evolving every day that passes.
From Software has no competition when it comes to soulslike games. No one makes them like they do, because that’s what they were created for. But Team Ninja managed to create a new branch of them, more focused on action, which has captivated a particular audience. The result is the Nioh saga, which will release its third installment in a few months, but you can now get its first installment with all its DLCs for less than 5 euros. A real bargain if you’re not intimidated by a good challenge.
Here we conclude with the offers that will make you wonder if Steam is in their right mind to include those that perhaps require a second thought, but not two. Because when it comes to challenges, Hollow Knight: Silksong is two things: one of the most anticipated and celebrated games in recent years and a game capable of energizing the most seasoned player. Absolutely fantastic in aesthetics and extremely difficult for some and simply challenging for others, it is a divisive game, but it has captivated the audience. And now it can be obtained for almost, almost, just 15 euros.
We highly recommend Red Dead Redemption 2 in these lists, but let’s be honest. It’s one of those games that is impossible not to recommend. It’s huge, it’s fun, and it captivates. It’s an absolutely fantastic game that, for just 20 euros, is an investment you don’t even have to think about if it catches your interest even slightly, whether you’re a fan of GTA or westerns. Because if you meet either of the two previous conditions, Red Dead Redemption 2 is going to enchant you.
If there is a game that seems like you have to love or hate, it is Elden Ring Nightreign. Many people have very strange attitudes towards this game, we don’t quite understand why, because we are going to be honest: we think it is a very fun game. Taking the formula of soulslikes and applying it to the logic of multiplayer games, it is an incredibly fun game with friends and sometimes brilliant with strangers. If you like soulslikes for their online component, get it right now, and if it catches your attention and you’re not sure, it’s only 30 euros. Where do 30 euros really take you in this economy?
The GOTY according to the Game Awards and most lists of the best of the year. And there must be something to it when they bless the water. With only a 20% discount and for almost 40 euros, it is the most expensive game on the list, but let’s be honest: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has probably caught your eye. It’s a different RPG, more focused on action, and everyone is in love with its narrative and its world. And now that you have a few days to dedicate your attention to it, isn’t this the perfect time to dive into a game that lasts between 20 and 30 hours?
In a remarkable turn, Cyberpunk 2077 has gone from being one of the most criticized releases in 2020 to becoming a major commercial success, reaching the impressive figure of 35 million copies sold in less than five years. This notable rebound is attributed not only to a series of patches that improved the gaming experience but also to the Phantom Liberty expansion and the acclaimed anime Edgerunners, which revitalized interest in the CD Projekt RED title.

In a remarkable turn, Cyberpunk 2077 has gone from being one of the most criticized launches in 2020 to becoming a major commercial success, reaching the impressive figure of 35 million copies sold in less than five years. This notable resurgence is attributed not only to a series of patches that improved the gaming experience but also to the Phantom Liberty expansion and the acclaimed anime Edgerunners, which revitalized interest in the CD Projekt RED title.
We continue in Night City
Sales figures even surpass those of The Witcher 3, which took six years to reach 30 million units. This success has driven a 53% increase in third-quarter revenues for 2025, reaching 349 million zlotys (82 million euros), with Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion leading this financial wave. The game’s return to the PS Store and its inclusion in the PS Plus service have also contributed to its resurgence.
In response to this success, CD Projekt has accelerated the development of the sequel, Cyberpunk 2, which has moved into the pre-production phase. With a projected increase in its workforce that could reach up to 400 employees in the coming years, the studio is laying the groundwork for an expected release, although not before 2028. A team member has hinted that the sequel could feature a new city inspired by a darker Chicago, in addition to Night City.
The anticipation is also palpable for The Witcher 4, which has been nominated for “Most Anticipated Game” at the 2025 Game Awards, despite no promotional material being released. CD Projekt’s CFO, Piotr Nielubowicz, has commented on the high expectations for this installment, confirming that they are still in the development stages and there will be no new content at the gala. With several projects underway, CD Projekt is positioning itself for an exciting future in the world of video games.
China is gradually gaining the interest of the Western public. Although they have been producing excellent audiovisual productions for some time, especially in film and television, it has only been in the last few years that their cinema has begun to be considered commercially viable outside their borders. A similar situation has occurred with their video games, which have only recently started to take off among audiences outside of Asia. The latest case of a game that has taken off and is beginning to dominate the Western market is a game that could not be more […]
China is gradually gaining the interest of the Western public. Although they have been producing excellent audiovisual productions for some time, especially in film and television, it has only been in the last few years that their cinema has started to be considered commercially viable outside their borders. A similar trend has occurred with their video games, which have only recently begun to take off among audiences outside of Asia.
The latest case of a game that has taken the world by storm and is starting to dominate the Western market is a game that couldn’t be more Chinese in everything it does. And its name is Where Winds Meet.
A game with a Chinese flavor, but a Western style
This open-world action RPG offers us something very different from what we are used to in this type of games: to live our own wuxia story. What is wuxia? They are the chivalric tales of wandering heroes who roam throughout China, resolving troubles wherever they find them, using martial arts and spectacular moves that defy the logic and physics of reality. Something that the game has captured perfectly.
Positioning ourselves in the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which lasted from 907 to 960 and was a time of tremendous political and social instability for China, our duty will be to act as a gentleman throughout its vast world. Righting wrongs and ensuring we build a reputation as a martial artist across the country.
And it won’t be because we don’t have space to cover and things to do. With 20 squares of map and the ability to specialize in multiple martial arts, weapon uses, as well as numerous mystical arts, the game offers us many ways to create our own legend. And many people are already doing it.
Although the game was officially released on November 14 in Europe and the US, the game has been available on PC since December 27 in China. With three million downloads in the first four days of its release, Where Winds Meet became one of the most important games of this year from the very beginning.
Something that has only grown since its launch in the West. Appearing on PlayStation, Steam, and Epic, within 40 minutes of its release there were 500,000 players just counting Europe and the US, with more than two million during its first 24 hours. Reaching a peak of 190,000 simultaneous players on Steam, it has become the seventh best-selling game in Steam history, the fifth most played, and the second most viewed on its launch day.
The reasons are that the game, besides being visually stunning and offering us radical freedom and a style different from the typical action RPG, is that it is free-to-play. We don’t have to pay for anything to play, making its monetization extremely friendly for the standards of this type of game.
That’s why, if you love games like The Witcher 3 and are even a little intrigued by the wuxia aesthetic, you shouldn’t miss Where Winds Meet. Because few games are going to take the world by storm the way this one is, and besides, it won’t even cost you any money to see if the hype was justified or not.
