The Witcher 4 Gets New Official Release Window from CD Projekt Red
The Witcher 4 received a new update ahead of Gamescom 2026. We now have an idea when you'll be able to adventure with Ciri and Geralt next.
CD Projekt Red has officially announced that The Witcher 4 is set to release in 2028. Joint Chief Executive Officer Michał Nowakowski revealed this during a special video message. If the company maintains its release strategy, The Witcher 5 could follow in 2031 and The Witcher 6 in 2034.
Nowakowski confirmed The Witcher 4 will not be showcased at Gamescom 2026. The developer is currently working on a new saga, described as "truly special" with a large open world, intense gameplay, and an impactful story. The Witcher 4 promises to be the largest, boldest, and most ambitious game from the studio.
While The Witcher 4's release date is being kept under wraps, fans can look forward to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt expansion Songs of the Past, launching in 2027. This expansion, developed with Fool’s Theory, will return players to Geralt of Rivia's world, offering a standalone adventure that also acts as a prologue to The Witcher 4. Nowakowski emphasized the expansion's purpose: delivering a high-quality, fun experience for existing fans.
