Legit Excited about this. Played Witcher 3 for the first time and absolutely love it. The writing is so good.

I assume this DLC is basically part of their marketing campaign for The Witcher 4. They'll sell it cheap for attention, making back part/all of their investment in it, and it'll probably be geared to segue towards The Witcher 4's story in some way. So it reminds people of The Witcher series and how much they liked The Witcher 3, while making them want to see where things go with The Witcher 4.
Seeing this I sort of expect them to pull the same thing with Cyberpunk 2077 when its sequel is close, like they go and drop the "canceled" DLC that involved a heist on an orbital or a moonbase or something like that, to draw people back in.
If I'm right, that's certainly a better use of idk like $50 million of their marketing budget than just buying fucking youtube ads or the like.
