The Witcher 4 can begin its development from 2022

Adam Kicinski, CEO of CD Projekt Red, said in an interview that the sequel to The Witcher saga may begin development after they finish working on the Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 versions for the next generation of consoles in 2022. .

Kicinski commented on the continuation of the game during an interview with the Polish website Rzeczpospolita, but he was not very clear in his statements, so much of the information comes from an interpretation of what Kicinski said. According to him, a continuation of the franchise will be developed, which could be The Witcher 4 or another game, after two major projects are finished today.

It’s not hard to predict that these two projects will be next-gen versions of Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which CD Projekt Red has already confirmed will launch in Q1 and Q2 2022, respectively. Therefore, in mid-2022, the studio should start developing a new The Witcher.

The Witcher 4 will begin development in 2022

It’s worth noting that the company’s CEO has revealed that there will be new projects involving both Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher, but continuation of the wizard franchise is likely to be the priority for them initially. Assuming a development time of roughly three and a half years, we can expect The Witcher 4 to arrive in 2025 or 2026, if all goes well.

As for announcing the new game, it could be around 2023, but perhaps CD Projekt Red has realized how troublesome it can be to announce a game as early as it did with Cyberpunk 2077, so it might take even longer for a. officially announce this new game.

For now what we do know is that The Witcher fans will have a long time to wait for the game to continue, but in the first half of next year they will be able to enjoy the new version of The Witcher 3.
