The end of CD Projekt Red's highly successful video game, "The Witcher 3," is now approaching as the second and final DLC expansion of the game is set to be released soon. According to the latest rumors, the forthcoming DLC pack, named "Blood and Wine," will be released towards the end of the month.

As reported by the news website VG247, the alleged release date of "The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine" was revealed in a Steam page that went live over the past weekend. CD Projekt Red may have seen the information shared on the said Steam page, and as of now, the page was already taken down. It is unknown what was the reason behind the removal of the said Steam page, although those fans who would like to see the release date reveal in the website can search for the screenshot before the page was taken down. The screenshot of the announcement was posted on a Reddit page. Regardless, several fans were thrilled to see that the much awaited latest content pack for "The Witcher 3" will arrive as early as May 30.

There are a number of possible reasons behind the removal of the Steam page broadcasting the May 30 launching of the "Blood and Wine" DLC. It could mean that it was only a fake page that edited the graphic to make it appear that the May 30 release is legit. It is also possible that the page was taken down as a part of the company's moves to keep confidentiality of their current game projects.

CD Projekt Red have mentioned that the forthcoming DLC pack is expected to be launched during the first half of 2016. Just recently, the game studio company has begun showing teasers for the newest game content, including a cover art. Moreover, according to the same report from VG247, the "Blood and Wine" DLC is going to be as big as the huge Skellige arc in the game. It is expected that more details regarding the game will be released during the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 in June, that is if CD Projekt Red will not be unveiling the game on May 30.

WCCFTECH reported Senior Animator Jamie Bury saying in an interview that "Blood and Wine" will include a bunch of new and thrilling creatures. There will also be new quests that the players can take to obtain game bonuses and experience. "Blood and Wine" is reported to have a total of 20 gaming hours, and it will be introducing the players to Toussaint, PlayStation Lifestyles reported.
