Rumors of a new Witcher 3 DLC have been swirling for a while, but if recent whispers about its setting are true, it could take the series somewhere refreshingly unexpected. While the game’s post-launch life has mostly been defined by the Blood and Wine and Hearts of Stone expansions, word now suggests this mysterious extra content might send players to Zerrikania, a land only briefly touched on before.
Zerrikania is known in the Witcher universe for its exotic deserts and fierce warriors, a sharp contrast to the moody, often rain-soaked landscapes of the Northern Kingdoms. This setting would open up all sorts of possibilities for fresh storytelling and gameplay. It’s an intriguing direction for CD Projekt Red to explore, especially given how well the studio has balanced intense narrative and lush, varied environments in the past.
For fans who have kept The Witcher 3 alive in their libraries over the years, the prospect of new content is welcome, if still unofficial. Given the franchise’s penchant for surprises, this rumored DLC could bring a new flavor without relying on the familiar. If the rumors pan out, we could be in for an adventure that feels both familiar and, importantly, new. Until then, it’s a case of watching the roads ahead and waiting for the next notice to go up.
