It’s been clear for a while now that The Witcher 4 – or whatever it ends up being called – is going to be the next big game in the pipeline for CD Projekt RED. Having been in pre-production for a while, as of earlier this year, the plan was for the project to enter full production sometime in 2024 itself- and it seems the game is making sufficient progress to be able to stick to that timeline.
That’s as per CD Projekt CFO Piotr Nielubowicz, who revealed in the company’s recent quarterly financial briefing that the next Witcher game, which has more than 400 people currently working on it, will soon exit pre-production and enter the full production phase.
“The Polaris team – working hard on the next game in the Witcher saga – made substantial progress, which will soon enable us to wrap up pre-production and take this project to the full production phase.”
Nielubowicz also touched on Orion, the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, which is still in early development at CD Projekt’s new Boston studio.
“The past six months were also a busy time for our studio in Boston. There, a group of CD Projekt RED veterans, now assisted by freshly hired talented developers, is laying the groundwork for another Cyberpunk game- codenamed Orion.”
Earlier this month, actor Doug Cockle – who voiced protagonist Geralt of Rivia in previous Witcher titles – revealed that the character will return in the series’ upcoming next instalment, though not as the primary protagonist. Read more on that through here.
