As a jumping-off point for our baseless conjecture, let's consider a statement from Philipp Weber, the narrative lead on Witcher 4. While we won't know the setting of the next Witcher game until there's an official reveal, we have plenty of space to speculate. We know a trilogy in the works alongside Project Sirius and Project Canis Majoris, two standalone Witcher projects. What the structure of that new saga will look like, and whether it'll be based on any earlier Witcher works or something more original, remains to be seen. Kiciński went on to describe the potential new series as "the second Witcher saga," leaving a pretty firm impression that CD Projekt is still in for the long haul on the Witcher. "The first saga was three games, so now we are thinking about more than one game." We have in mind more than one," Kiciński said. Nope, or at least CDPR says that it is "not planning on making the game exclusive to one storefront."ĭuring a CD Projekt Red financial earnings call in September 2022, CEO Adam Kiciński indicated that the next Witcher sequel could be the first in a new trilogy of Witcher games. Will The Witcher 4 be an Epic Games Store exclusive? We may wind up seeing teasers or other information about The Witcher 4, but once in-game videos start showing up we should be able to assume it's pretty near-unlike Cyberpunk 2077, whose first gameplay reveal was more than two years before its eventual release date. What we do know is that after Cyberpunk 2077's launch, CDPR said it wouldn't be showing trailers and demos for future games until much closer to launch. This is probably an indication that both games are a ways away in the future, but still: It's nice to know the relative release timing of a new Witcher experience, even if we don't know its actual date. Surprisingly, CDPR stated during an end-of-2022 financial call that the first game in the new Witcher saga would be releasing before the remake of the first Witcher game. The new entry's production was only confirmed in March 2022, with an announcement that its development had entered pre-production following in May 2022. There probably won't be for quite some time, as the game is in the earliest phases of development. There isn't a release date, or even release year, for The Witcher 4 yet.
