New rumors on the release date of new Blood and Wine DLC for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt are shaking the online world where some fans expect tits release next month, specifically on April 26.

According to Yibada, the Polish website Gry Online.pl leaked that the Blood and Wine DLC will be out on April 26 which is 2 months earlier than the early predictions and rumors. The report added that the rumoured release date will likely to happen since it falls on a Tuesday similar to the release of the first expansion Heart of Stones which also fell on Tuesday. CD Projekt RED, however,  has yet to confirm the said release date.

It is also said that the Polish developer CD Projekt RED usually release updates on the same time frame that was mentioned earlier. But if Blood and Wine will not be out on April 26, fans of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt could expect its release between April 2016 to June 2016.

Blood and Wine will be Geralt's last adventure and it is expected to bring 20 hours of adventure that will take players to a new land untainted by war. The expansion will bring new armors, new weapons, unparalleled enemy and a complex story that fans of The Witcher 3 will love.

The expansion will also have soundtrack composed by three excellent game composers. They are Marcin Przybylowicz who is the composer on The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, Mikolai Stroinski who is a composer for The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, and Piotrek Musial  who is a composer for This War of Mine, said a report by PCGamesN.

The new expansion will receive a completely new soundtrack which is said  to be "less drepressing" compared to the previous soundtrack of The Witcher 3 titled "Velen."

"We're not using any pieces that were written before, because we get a completely new area, new characters, and a new plot," said Przybylowicz in an interview with GamePressure. "They deserve to have their music written from scratch," he added.

Blood and Wine is the second and final paid expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for the Xbox One, PS4, and PC hardware.
