With all the chatter about Cyberpunk 2077, it's easy to forget that CD Projekt RED also has an ongoing free-to-play title based on The Witcher's very own card game, Gwent. The studio yesterday announced a brand new expansion coming to the game, and this time, it focuses on the city of Novigrad.
The expansion introduces a new faction, the Syndicate, which means more than 90 new cards to collect. There are also five new leaders to use, each bringing their own unique abilities to the table.
What's more, a new resource called Crowns has been brought into play. Crowns can activate the abilities of cards with the Fee keyword, and you can earn more Crowns using cards with the Profit keyword. There's an in-depth explanation of all this on CD Projekt RED's website.
The Novigrad expansion for Gwent will release on 28th June. Are you still playing Gwent on PS4? Pick a card in the comments below.

I've never played this game despite being a massive witcher fan and fan of Gwent in general. I've been put off by the microtransactions. Just wondered how important they are to progressing in the game and completing a deck
I just play Gwent in the Witcher 3
@QualityGeezer I been playing this games for years now. Since beta 2017. Oh boy let me tell you. I never once bought any microtrans. So I saved my. ............... [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°̲̅)̲̅$̲̅].
You don't need it at all.!
I am so \(`0´)/ excited for the second expansion

@carlos82 (∩ ` -´)⊃━━☆゚.*・。゚ 🆈🅾🆄 are missing out!
@Ridwaano can you complete a deck without microtransactions
@QualityGeezer
Yes 🆈🅾🆄 can. If you willing to discard a different faction. I never had any issues of getting the card I want. The hard thing 🅸🆂 to get then premium.. Animationed That more expensive ( ͡° ʖ̯ ͡°). But that just if you want the cherry on the tip ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀)🤙
@QualityGeezer I've got the platinum for it and have more cards than I know what to do with and I've never paid for any microtransactions. If you are a fan of the Witcher version of Gwent you'll love it.
I loved the Gwent beta but the drastic changes to full release killed it stone dead for me.
