Get ready, Witchers! CD Projekt Red has unveiled new details and stunning visuals for the highly anticipated “Songs of the Past” expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and it’s a game-changer. Prepare to finally experience the joy of petting those adorable canine companions that have been sorely missed since the original release.
A Long Time Coming: Petting Dogs in The Witcher 3
For years, The Witcher 3 players have lamented the inability to interact with dogs beyond a simple glance. While Geralt could stroke horses and other creatures, those loyal canine companions remained untouchable (except for that one quest where he rescues a dog from monsters). Now, after all this time, CD Projekt Red is finally delivering on a feature many fans have been clamoring for.
The “Songs of the Past” expansion, slated for release sometime after Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine, will add a brand new chapter to Geralt’s story. Set approximately 12 years after the game’s initial launch in 2015, players will venture into previously unexplored regions of the world, facing off against entirely new enemies and uncovering long-dormant evils lurking within the Letten region.

This expansion isn’t just about petting dogs; it represents a significant evolution of The Witcher 3. The “Songs of the Past” release is planned alongside a remaster of the original game, bringing visual enhancements, performance optimizations, and gameplay refinements. While the ability to pet dogs might initially seem like a small detail, its inclusion in the remastered version suggests that this feature will be available across the entire experience.
The wait is almost over! Get ready to dive back into the world of The Witcher 3 and finally give those furry friends the affection they deserve. The “Songs of the Past” expansion promises to be a memorable addition to an already legendary game, and we can’t wait to see what CD Projekt Red has in store for us.
