The Witcher 4 Gets Exciting Update From CD Projekt Red

Key Takeaways

  • The Witcher 4 has entered full-scale production.
  • CD Projekt Red currently has three Witcher games in development.
  • No release window for The Witcher 4 has been announced.

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I must say that the news about The Witcher 4 entering full-scale production has sent ripples of excitement coursing through me! It’s been a long wait since The Witcher 3 graced our screens in 2015, and the prospect of returning to the enchanting world of The Continent is truly tantalizing.


Under the code name “Project Polaris“, it’s now full steam ahead with the development of “The Witcher 4“. This marks the first major installment in the series since the launch of “The Witcher 3” back in 2015. The announcement has sparked great enthusiasm among fans who are eagerly waiting to dive back into this captivating universe.

At present, CD Projekt Red is working on three new titles set within the Witcher universe: Project Polaris, Canis Majoris, and Project Sirius. Unlike Canis Majoris, which is a remake of the original Witcher game, Project Sirius offers a multiplayer experience set in this popular world. Among these projects, however, it’s Project Polaris that stands out as the most ambitious one. This title is rumored to be the next major entry in the franchise and has been in development for several years.

Currently, CD Projekt Red’s game director, Sebastian Kalemba, has disclosed that the production of RPG The Witcher 4 is now in full swing. As per the developer, this implies that fresh hurdles are imminent, and gamers should stay alert for further updates.

The Witcher 4 Has Entered Full-Scale Production

It appears that “The Witcher 4” might not be hitting shelves in 2025 as previously speculated, given the current stage of production. A placeholder page for the game on GOG.com had earlier suggested a release date of December 31, 2025, but the development process for games is usually extensive, which could push the launch to 2026 or beyond. Additionally, considering the rocky debut of “Cyberpunk 2077,” it’s likely that developers CDPR will hold off on releasing “The Witcher 4” until it’s thoroughly polished to avoid similar issues.

Contrarily, the progress of The Witcher 4 appears to be proceeding well, implying there might be a slim possibility for its 2025 release date or that CDPR is targeting this timeframe at least. As far back as 2022, CDPR acknowledged that The Witcher 4 was approximately three years from launch, aligning it with the potential 2025 debut.

Generally speaking, details regarding The Witcher 4 have been quite limited. Recently, a leak on The Witcher 4 hinted at the inclusion of a new character named Branko, portrayed by British actor Jake Lampert. At present, no information is available about Branko’s background or the extent of his role in the upcoming game’s narrative.
