The Witcher III: Wild Hunt's expansion, Hearts of Stone, will be arriving on October 13th, 2015. Hearts of Stone includes around 10 hours (probably way more honestly) of gameplay and a new Runewords system, that lets you expand your gear even further. You can obtain the expansion in two very intresting ways. The first is through the expansion pass, for $24.99 at most of your favorite retailers. The other is a boxed copy of this specific expansion for $19.99, that includes two playable Gwent decks, what looks to be a few extra playing pieces, and a manual describing the game - oh and a digital download of the Hearts of Stone expansion specifically.
Don't be let down though if you've already bought the expansion pass, you can visit Redeem Gwent in order to get a code to purchase a pack of cards, so you don't have to lock yourself into having to rebuy the expansion in order to get just the cards. All you need is photo proof that you purchased it and you'll get a code, making it a bit more fair for those who didn't know about the really cool deal to get a set of IRL Gwent cards.
I don't specifically know too many details about the expansion, but look to Ten Ton Hammer to provide coverage as we head into October, especially in regards to helping you make those critical choices in the game.
Oh and visit Buy.TheWitcher.Com if you haven't bought the game yet.
