The Witcher 3 New Game Plus Rolling Out To PC, Consoles Now
The final piece of free The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt DLC is hitting PC and consoles now. If you’ve completed the game and are waiting to dive back in, New Game Plus should be available to all by tomorrow, August 18.
Community Manager Marcin Momot shared the news on his personal Twitter account. He also reminded fans that New Game Plus only gives you one more playthrough (though with how big The Witcher 3 is, that will still take you a while). If you want to take advantage of it again, you’ll need to start a whole new game.

Our Take
On the surface, a single additional playthrough doesn’t seem like much… and then you realize just how massive The Witcher 3 is. I’m sure there are more than a few people that would play it ad infinitum, but for most, this is more than enough.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
