Join Geralt of Rivia in his well-deserved victory lap.

<span class="bold">The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition</span>, the ultimate celebration of the most critically-acclaimed game in recent years, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com, with GOG Galaxy support for achievements. This package includes the base game, the soundtracks, both expansions and every bit of DLC released for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

If the 800+ awards and millions of enthusiastic fans are to be believed, 2015 was the year of the (White) Wolf. That's when Geralt of Rivia, the reluctant hero and dispassionate monster slayer, set out on his most personal quest yet: to save Ciri, the child of prophecy, from the Wild Hunt. But beyond the mature storytelling and emotional gravitas, Witcher 3 offered an awe-inspiring open-world rife with rewarding exploration and engaging combat.

Later that year, Geralt's travels brought him face to face with the enigmatic Master Mirror and a man cursed with eternal life. Hearts of Stone was widely recognised as one of the darkest, yet delightfully subversive adventures ever presented within The Witcher universe.

The intoxicating region of Beauclair became the stage for the White Wolf's last bow. Untouched by war but haunted by its own demons, the land of Blood and Wine expanded the Witcher world even further, bringing new monsters, additional pieces of equipment, and more powerful mutations to help Geralt defeat the legendary Beast of Beauclair and claim his ultimate destiny. But not before he collects all the new Gwent cards that he's missing!

Grab your silver swords and slice open <span class="bold">The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. To learn more about the contents of the package and the astonishing world of The Witcher 3, spur Roach in <span class="bold">this direction</span>.

If you own the expansions separately or as part of the Expansion Pass, you're in for a treat as well: <span class="bold">Hearts of Stone</span> and <span class="bold">Blood and Wine</span> just got updated to include the free OSTs, both in mp3 and FLAC format.

Hey guys, just to clear the air a bit on the matter of the GOTY version VS the base game + expansions.

In terms of content and updates, there is absolutely NO difference between these two, so if you already own The Witcher 3 + Expansion Pass, you are not missing out on anything, apart from another box cover in your Library :)

PS: That trailer reminded me I should replay the game sometime, just to pay my final respects to the bloody Ladies of the Wood >.<

What about an option to replace our base game with the new edition?

And the fancy GOTY on the shelf for owners of the base + expansions?
This is fantastic. Thanks for the new soundtracks. One thing though, the Blood and Wine OST is missing cover art and tags, would be nice if it were updated with those.

Edit: nevermind, it's a windows issue, it doesn't like the id3v2.4 tags

Trilarion: So The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt + Expansion Pass = The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition?

So more or less just a rename and a price drop.

That sounds promising. During promos the game might surely be available in all its glory for less than $50.

Not planned at the moment, as far as I know.

Thiev: Not planned at the moment, as far as I know.
And just adding the GOTY instead of replacing?

Smannesman: And just adding the GOTY instead of replacing?
Same as above.
Well.. that sucks.
And with a CDPR title.
Shit!
So there will be no GNU/Linux.

Smannesman: Well.. that sucks.
And with a CDPR title.
As far as I understand the main reason behind that is that it's impossible to do on all platforms.

But why shouldn't PC players be treated differently if the platform allows it. I mean if you have Base + Expansion Pass you basically have everything from the GOTY right?
Nice to see the GOTY version out... now just waiting for when it's on sale and I will finally add this to the backlog!

PaterAlf: And you don't get a discount when you already own the base game and one of the expansions??? That's very poor of you, GOG.
It doesn't include additional content so there is no need to buy it?
I feel punished for having supported this game when it first came out. Seriously bad form GOG, I won't be pre-ordering ever again if we aren't offered an upgrade.
