Fans continue to eagerly await a new story-driven expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

Recently, numerous rumors have been circulating about potential new content for The Witcher 3, specifically hinting that CD Projekt RED might be preparing an adventure centered around Ciri.

The developers, apparently privy to these whispers, decided to playfully mislead the community on April Fool’s Day. They announced a new “Witcher 3” expansion—but dedicated entirely to Geralt’s faithful steed, Roach.

This humorous project was dubbed “R.O.A.C.H.” and promised players a highly realistic experience of riding the famed horse, suggesting it might even be enhanced by a special controller for immersion.

As for a genuine, official DLC for The Witcher 3, no details have been revealed yet. Players speculate that any real expansion should ideally be unveiled and released this year, before the highly anticipated launch of GTA VI, which is expected to dominate the gaming spotlight.
