Geralt of Rivia is about to add a very unexpected trick to his monster-slaying arsenal. A newly revealed gameplay trailer for upcoming Witcher 3 DLC shows the White Wolf wielding a chain weapon that lets him yank enemies across the battlefield before slicing them apart — and fans immediately noticed it looks like something straight out of Mortal Kombat.
A “Get Over Here” Moment for the White Wolf
Anyone who has played NetherRealm’s iconic fighting series will instantly recognize the move. Just as Scorpion hurls his kunai-chain and bellows his legendary “GET OVER HERE!” line, Geralt can now launch his chain at distant foes and drag them kicking and screaming into sword range. From there, things get messy.
Dismemberment Is the Star of the Show
The gameplay footage doesn’t hold back on the gore. The new weapon appears designed to brutalize monsters and bandits alike, with limbs and body parts flying as Geralt combines chain pulls with his signature swordplay and Signs. It’s a noticeably more savage combat style than fans are used to, and it fits surprisingly well with the grim, blood-soaked tone of the Continent.
Why New Witcher 3 Content Is Such a Big Deal
Here’s the remarkable part: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt originally launched back in 2015, meaning CD Projekt Red’s epic action RPG is now a decade old. Most studios would have moved on entirely — and to be fair, CDPR is hard at work on The Witcher 4 — yet the developer (and its partners) continue to breathe fresh life into the game that made Geralt a household name.
Since launch, the game has received two major expansions, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine, a sweeping next-gen upgrade in 2022 with ray tracing and performance modes, and even crossover content inspired by the Netflix series. Adding brand-new weaponry like this chain nearly ten years after release shows a level of post-launch support that’s almost unheard of in the industry — and it gives longtime players a compelling reason to boot up the Path once more.
How the Chain Could Change Combat
From a gameplay perspective, a pull-type weapon opens up interesting tactical options. Witcher combat has always rewarded positioning, and the ability to forcibly relocate enemies — yanking a distant archer into melee range, for example, or dragging a smaller monster away from a pack — could add a fresh layer of crowd control. It also gives players a stylish middle ground between Signs and steel, and we’re curious to see whether the chain gets its own upgrade tree or crafting diagrams like other gear in the game.
