The Witcher 3 reveals new system requirements and it's now Windows 11 or nothing

.

CD Projekt finally confirmed today that it's working on a new expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, called Songs of the Past, that's expected to be out sometime in 2027. As part of that announcement, the studio also said it's updating the game's system requirements "to ensure smooth performance and compatibility going forward."

It initially struck me as a bit odd that CD Projekt would need to update hardware requirements for a game that's more than 10 years old—after all, PCs now are more powerful than PCs then, right? So you'd think that if anything, The Witcher 3 would run better than ever these days.
