The expansion is titled Hearts of Stone and promises to deliver ten hours of new gameplay, new characters, a new romance (oooooh!), and a new storyline that is based on the player’s choices. Essentially, The Witcher 3 plus Choose-Your-Own-Adventures equals Hearts of Stone – and that’s not a bad thing. The trailer show Gerald of Rivia being hired to defeat an immortal bandit captain. Oh, and there’s a ghost, so that’s also pretty awesome.

As an added bonus, Hearts of Stone also introduces a new Runewords system which has a dramatic effect on gameplay. Each Runeword impacts a different in-game technical aspect, which allows for you to play with different strategies.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Hearts of Stone is available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. There is also a collector’s edition that contains a download code and several other goodies.
