I regret to inform you that The Witcher 3 is a decade old this year, but you can forget about unceasing mortality for a few hours at the anniversary concerts

Bathtub geralt.

A new announcement on The Witcher 3's Steam page made me think "oh that's nice" before my fingers suddenly started aching, the sky grew dark, and this wizened form crumbled into dust o'er the keyboard. As of May this year The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, one of the finest PC action-RPGs there is, will be a decade old.

I realised this because CDPR has announced The Witcher in Concert, a tour that it characterises as "a celebration of the 10th anniversary of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt." The tour will kick off at Gamescom in Colorne on August 20, 2025, before other dates in Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Sweden. Further concerts in North America and Poland will be announced at a later date.
