Where to even begin? The colourful land of Toussaint is jaw-droppingly gorgeous, it tells an excellent story within a concise 15-or-so hours, the quests are more fun and less bleak, and the addition of mutations is fantastic.

And because that's not enough, it also serves up a note perfect ending to Geralt's story on top of all this.

Blood and Wine is basically the gold standard for video game DLC - an expansion crafted with just as much care as the main experience, and yet one which, through its aesthetics, its tone, and its overall emotion, is ultimately more satisfying to play.

Not everyone will agree with this, but few are going to argue with Blood and Wine's sheer storytelling and gameplay excellence regardless.
