    Blood & Wine is an excellent expansion to an already exceptional foundation. The land of Touissaint is absolutely packed to the brim with content and collectibles. The main story is about Vampires, and is also engaging. The new characters are just as engaging as the old ones ever were. If you get the chance to pick this bad boy up, take it.

    this is probably the best DLC ever made. New enemies, new locations, new soundtrack, new items and new, amazing story.
    Other developers would sell Blood and Wine as a normal full game, and obviously for ~40$.
    I'm glad that CD Project RED made games about Geralt and his next adventures. Witcher is one of my favorites books, and now I'm able to see on screen everything I could imagine when    this is probably the best DLC ever made.

    Pros:
    -Graphics
    -music
    -atmosphere
    -quests
    -humor
    -30 hours of gameplay
    -writting
    -PRICE!

    Cons
    -too many jokes and refferences
    -bugs at launch
    I cant just find major flaws of this game. It is essential. Also they give you Physical gwent decks. God damn, buy this Expansion if you are Witcher guy, because it is totally worth it, and its price is cheap.

    Toussaint is so charming, that I give 10/10 just for that. Graphics, climate, story, characters, Corvo Bianco and new mutations are just great. A perfect example of how to make a perfect expansion for a perfect price. If you liked Wild Hunt and/or Hearths of Stone you will love Blood and Wine. Buy, play and enjoy.

    If Wild Hunt was one of the best games i ever played.
    This is one of the best expansions/DLC i ever played.
    CDPR once again proves they are one if the best developers on the market.

    Such an incredible expansion for the already fantastic game The Witcher 3. If you think that Heart of stone was a great dlc, Blood and wine will blow your mind. 1010 Great job CD project!

    All i can say is WOW. Most devs would charge 40 bucks for a dlc this size and you know it. Cdpr can take my money all day every day, this is fantastic. I will be playing through this as slowly and carefully as possible, if this really is the last piece of witcher we will get for a long time, im gunna embrace it, take advantage of it, scour it. I hope to get 55-70 hours.

    I just started playing this yesterday and all I can say is WOW! There's a whole new area to explore with different monsters characters and new story. The interface is fixed and there have been many tweaks made to the game itself. I will be playing this slowly, embracing the last W3 expansion. Highly recommended!

    I've only put in around 10 hours in the DLC and can already say this is another 10 out of 10 game. Witcher 3 is a phenomenal game and the first DLC complemented the main game beautifully. Blood and wine is now doing the same, adding a massive new, beautiful map. Interesting characters, story and places to explore.

    This is a must have for any Witcher 3 fan to own. Excellent work yet again!

Oh and his AI thinks he is fighting a drowner or something and just runs into the monster and dies every minute. Oh i didn't mention that you take around 0.5% of his health in one hit and he instantly hits you back takeing 90% of your health? And this is just an example im currently a few hours in and i'm stuck on a enemy 5 levels below me that insta kills me for some reason?! Aside from that the DLC has been great but combat is kindo a big part of an RPG as well as ability to progress a quest that you "could have done" when you were 5 levels worse… Expand

    18 dollars for an expansion that feels like a full game, not only that but it's the best gaming experience I had this year so far. CD project red is now officially my new favorite developer.
    This expansion is even better than the game itself, so if you enjoyed the witcher go and buy this expansion NOW!

    This DLC alone should be the game of the year 2016. It is really this good and this big.
    It makes almost all other full games pale in comparison.

    If only CD is able to optimize the loading time when Geralt dies I would happily give it a 20 out 10.

    CDPR's definition of DLC is simply on another level. No other dev compares, not with the quality or quality you get for the price asked. This features a stunning new area and dozens of new quest and characters, most of which are better than the base game. If anything deserves a 10, this is it.

    3. Many well developed characters, main-story is well written, same goes for side-quests

    I give 10 because otherwise I would have to downgrade all other games. No game is perfect, but close to is enough for me. CD Projekt showed that they are listening to their customers and if you liked the previous parts of the game, there is no way around this add-on! Have fun!

    Released May. 31 on all major platforms it is abolutely without question a must buy for anyone and everyone that enjoyed Witcher 3.
    Blood and Wine includes a huge map, with interesting places and a lot of wine, and french culture.
    It starts of with a 'normal' Witcher contract sent out my 'Her Enlightened Ladyship Duchess of Toussaint' to kill and bring the head of The Beast of Beauclair. Quite romantic, no? Along the adventure you may happen upon old and new friends and characters. The world is also filled with interesting sidequests and Witcher Contracts, everything reigning from helping Knights defeat Monsters, and being attacked by living statues. Blood and Wine also includes the great immersion and feeling of liveliness that the main game possess.
    The story of Blood and Wine is great. It immerse you in a beautiful and sometimes dark story of love, and murder. Blood And Wine includes multiple ending which makes it very replayable.
    The characters have differents views and ideoligies, and It's your job to choose which side you believe is the best. The voice acting is great apart from some moments that bring you straight out of the experience and ruins it for you, although the game is great and it brings you straight back in again. Some character also sound suspiciously ... Swedish?
    The game runs just as smoothly as the main game and it is twice as pretty with the beautiful meadows and colourfull environment. I had constant 60fps troughout the entire games without any drops of lag spikes (i5 6600k, EVGA gtx980, 16gb RAM).
    The game ends beautifully with Geralt of Rivia talking with a character and they say they need some rest, then Geralt moves his head and eyes and look at you through your computer screen. An incredible message from the developers that they will now take a rest from the Witcher and probably make a new IP. With CD P. Red's new game Cyberpunk 2077 in developement I sure as hell hope thay can bring the same type of quality and love to their next game.    … Expand

    The Witcher 3: Blood & Wine is an exceptional expansion that reignites a sense of wonder even for players who have put in hundreds of hours so far. The breadth and variety of all that’s included stands stronger than many full-priced sequels. As a twenty-dollar add-on, it’s absolutely worthwhile.
