CD Projekt Red hints at new Witcher 3 DLC in recent financial report

Industry insiders, leakers, and analysts have all pointed to CD Projekt secretly working on a new DLC for the critically acclaimed title, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and now CD Projekt Red has seemingly hinted at its existence in a recent financial report.

The string of rumors pointing to a new Witcher 3 DLC suggests CD Projekt Red is working on a new DLC to bridge the gap in the story between the events of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and the upcoming Witcher 4, which will feature Ciri as the main protagonist. Additionally, rumors indicate the new DLC will be an expansion of the region Velen, rather than an entirely new region as earlier rumors suggested.

As for what is official, CD Projekt Red hasn't announced anything specifically regarding a new Witcher 3 DLC, but in a recent financial report, the developer wrote, "In the coming quarters, the Studio will focus primarily on further development work on ongoing projects; we also plan to publish one of the heretofore unannounced gaming projects," reads the document.

What that statement means is CD Projekt Red is going to continue working on the projects that have been publicly announced, but the statement, "we also plan to publish one of the heretofore unannounced gaming projects," which translates to, "We are going to announce a secret project we have been working on".

Whether or not that secret project is a new Witcher 3 DLC is anyone's guess, but the developer recently confirmed via an X post that it isn't working on any "secret" Cyberpunk 2077 content, so that title can be ruled out for new content. But, CD Projekt Red has yet to debunk the speculation about a new Witcher 3 DLC, despite that having more community speculation than a new Cyberpunk 2077 DLC.

Lastly, an analyst from a brokerage house told Strefa Inwestorów, CD Projekt Red will be looking to release the rumored new DLC for The Witcher 3 before Rockstar releases Grand Theft Auto 6, which pegs the debut for sometime around Q3 2026.
