New Witcher 3 Mod Adds Unofficial Adventures to Toussaint

If you are counting down the days until the official Songs of the Past expansion for The Witcher 3, a well-known modder has dropped a lore-friendly way to pass the time in Toussaint. As reported by Rock Paper Shotgun, a new mod titled Annals of the Duchy adds fresh quests to Geralt’s retirement in the vibrant duchy introduced in the Blood and Wine expansion.

Expanding the Duchy

The mod is the latest work from creator Jontej, who previously released other custom quests for the game. Annals of the Duchy currently offers an opening chapter involving a halfling and an opportunity for Geralt to improve his vineyard’s vines. Depending on your game save, the quest can feature appearances from either Yennefer or Triss. Unlike some of the modder’s earlier work, this project utilizes human voice actors for both English and Polish language tracks.

Jontej plans to build on the foundation of this first chapter, with future storylines slated to feature Syanna. Because of this, players should note that the mod requires an ending for Blood and Wine where both Anna Henrietta and Syanna survive, along with the completion of the Corvo Bianco vineyard renovations.

How to play

To experience the new content, you will need to start the quest by walking from the Corvo Bianco manor house toward the gardens between the hours of 11am and 1pm. The creator notes that players should be cautious if they have other mods installed that modify companion behavior, as these could potentially cause compatibility conflicts with the quest’s events.

Why it matters

This mod offers a way to bridge the gap before the official expansion, Songs of the Past, arrives next year. Since the mod is designed to fit into the timeline following the events of the main game and Blood and Wine, it provides a lore-friendly reason to step back into Geralt’s boots for a bit longer.

For players, this is a chance to extend the experience of the base game’s final chapter. While the official expansion is on the horizon, this community-driven content highlights the enduring popularity of Toussaint and the ongoing demand for more stories set within that region.
