CD Projekt Red confirms Witcher 3 remaster is free, attributing new expansion to 'happy accidents'
CD Projekt Red confirmed that the upcoming remaster of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be a free upgrade for existing owners, with no consideration given to charging for it. The studio revealed that the new paid expansion, Songs of the Past, emerged from 'happy accidents' involving a partnership with Fool's Theory and a gap in their release calendar. The remaster, launching September 29, 2026, includes visual and gameplay overhauls, while the expansion is set for 2027.
