With multiple perfect review scores to its name, in addition to being a strong contender for many Game of the Year awards, The Witcher 3 is certainly a game that earns its keep. So the news of a story expansion is certainly welcome. Hell, with the game being as huge and immersive as it is, CD Project RED definitely have to be commended for adding even more content.
From the Press Release:
We are pleased to announce the release date of Hearts of Stone, the first expansion to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
Launching October 13, 2015, Hearts of Stone packs over 10 hours of new adventures and introduces new characters, powerful monsters, unique romance, and a brand new storyline shaped by gamer choices. The expansion also introduces a brand new system of Runewords that significantly affects gameplay. Each Runeword will impact a different aspect of in-game mechanics and will allow the players to experiment with various strategies and tactics.
Along with the digital release, gamers will also be able to purchase a special, limited boxed edition of Hearts of Stone (SRP $19.99/19.99€) available at selected retailers worldwide. The box contains a digital download code for the expansion, two masterfully crafted physical decks of Gwent, the card game set in the world of The Witcher, and a detailed manual explaining the rules. With two unique sets of cards, Monsters and Scoia’tael ready to go, you and your friends can now engage in tactical combat on a grand scale outside of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!
We have also launched a special initiative for owners of the digital Expansion Pass that will enable them to purchase the cards separately.
