#The Witcher 3 Songs of the Past

From the return of The Witcher 3 to new looks at Fable, Alien: Isolation 2, Gears of War: E-Day, and Final Fantasy VII: Revelation, Gamescom delivered plenty for both AAA and indie fans. The Witcher 3 stole the show One of the biggest surprises of Gamescom 2026 came from CD Projekt Red, which announced a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt more than a decade after the original game launched. Called The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Songs of the Past, the expansion brings Geralt back for another adventure centered around his longtime friend Dandelion. CD Projekt Red also announced The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered, which is set to launch on September 29. The Witcher 3's remaster and Songs of the Past won the gamescom award for Best Trailer / Announcement, while the game's booth also won the Jury Award for Best Booth. The Witcher 4, however, was nowhere to be seen at the event. From major revivals like The Witcher 3, Tomb Raider, Fable, Onimusha, and Alien: Isolation to unexpected announcements and a particularly strong showing from indie developers, this year's event offered a healthy mix of established franchises and new ideas. And with The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past, Alien: Isolation 2, Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, Final Fantasy VII: Revelation, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, and plenty more now on the horizon, Gamescom 2026 gave gamers plenty of reasons to keep their calendars full.
