The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine Reviews
Toussant is praised and renowned for its wealth and wine, and this final The Witcher outing is like indulging in a rare oak aged red.
From the new content, to the new species of enemies, to the sprawling, vibrantly colorful world of Toussaint, Blood & Wine is the exemplar of DLC.
"It’s a heck of an expansion and one that provides a stellar sendoff for a master Witcher."
An excellent conclusion to the series that will undoubtedly please every fan. A really massive expansion that works like a standalone game and shows the middle finger to the short DLCs for other games. Huge props to CDPR.

Blood and Wine was exactly the great end CD Projekt Red brought to the Witcher series and Geralt's fantastic story.

There is nothing to write about, Blood and Wine is a big piece of a great story expansion. A must have for fans of the series, the universe and the white-haired daredevil.

Blood and Wine is a fantastic expansion and has everything you need to get you to blow off the dust of your copy of The Witcher 3. The expansion offers more than twice as many hours of gameplay as Hearts of Stone and stands like a house in terms of gameplay. If you loved Wild Hunt and Hearts of Stone, you'll buy Blood and Wine blindly. Cd Projekt RED Geralt could not have given a more dignified farewell than Blood and Wine!

Blood & Wine is a fantastic goodbye to Geralt. I loved every minute of it and can’t wait to see what CD Projekt Red have in store for the future. I’m hopeful if there’s more in The Witcher series it comes with a refined combat system. Regardless of what they do, I’m confident it will be fantastic. But as for Blood & Wine, I’m glad I was able to see Geralt’s story finish up.
Ultimately, the Blood & Wine expansion rivals and bests some full AAA games I’ve played in recent memory.
Blood and Wine is perfection. It's more than a DLC, more than an expansion. The experience of Toussaint, its characters, and its stories are a testament to CD Projekt RED's caring craft in sending Geralt of Rivia on his last great contract.
Blood and Wine held all the components to make a great final adventure, but failed to truly capitalise on any one of them. If you’re looking for a good final experience to cap off your monster hunting career, go finish Hearts of Stone again – this one’s rather underwhelming.
If Hearts of Stone was an uncomfortable, dark, challenging and powerful crescendo, Blood and Wine takes up the feeling of comfort and beauty of high fantasy, transporting us to a world that, however, is as corrupted as ours. The saga that showed that another fantasy was possible in video games concludes on an elegant and comfortable note. CD Projekt RED returns to the noble tradition of expansions: more than DLC, Blood and Wine is a complete game. You can't go wrong with The Witcher 3; while we wait for the next step, it only remains to say: something ends, something begins.

If you want a great RPG, here you have it and don't doubt the qualities of the data disc. This is a wine of the highest quality, in which your blood boils.

The era of DLC and Season Pass in profusion has made us somewhat hostile in the face of the expansion phenomenon, scalded too often by narrow content on sale at a disproportionate price. CD Projekt Red, on the other hand, proves to be made of completely different pasta: Blood and Wine is an expansion that, with only 20 euros, exceeds in quantity and quality the typical offer of modern titles, unable to offer the same level of content even in the main campaign.

Blood and Wine is undoubtedly the best expansion package of 2016 so far and a candidate for this year's best adjunct package. Of course it is one of the best DLCs of all time.

It really is incredible what CDPR has achieved here, and I wouldn’t be totally averse to playing something of this size and quality each and every year. This is without doubt the greatest piece of DLC I have ever played, and I think plenty of other developers and publishers should rightly be embarrassed by their efforts after seeing this. Expansion of the year? Almost surely. Game of the year? A real possibility.
Blood And Wine delivers a poignant swan song for The Witcher 3
Blood and Wine is what all expansions should aspire to be, is the perfect send-off for the series, and should be loved by anyone who enjoyed the base game.
