Next year we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt! What better way to commemorate all these years of adventures and monster slaying than through part of the game itself - its music!

The Witcher in Concert will be an innovative blend of cutting-edge visuals & gameplay from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt alongside the original soundtrack composed by Marcin Przybyłowicz. Freshly arranged just for this occasion and bolstered by co-composers Percival as well as a professional ensemble, this concert tour promises to be unforgettable.

When and where will this happen?

• First, we’ll hold a couple of concerts in Poland and in Boston, United States, in May 2025 to celebrate the anniversary itself!
  
• After that, we’re going on a tour, visiting cities in Europe later in 2025 and in North America in the first quarter of 2026.

Stay tuned for more details, as we’ll be unveiling specific dates and cities on the official website at https://thewitcher.com/concert

The time has come for the final modding challenge of The Witcher 3 REDkit Modding Contest.

With our first two modding challenges, summer also came to an end. The days now are getting shorter and a chill (unrelated to the Wild Hunt) can be felt in the air. In this final challenge, we’d like you to show us how fall can transform the Continent. Maybe trees across Toussaint turn red and lose their leaves, or residents of Velen redecorate their homes for the upcoming Saovine… Or maybe you can conjure something up that we couldn’t even dream of!

We have just released a hotfix for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!

It fixes the issue where turning on HairWorks on DirectX 11 crashed the game after loading a save.

It also adds some new capabilities for modding scripts: the script compiler now supports a number of annotations. Their main purpose is to add/modify functionality in existing game functions and classes without merging script files.
