The Witcher 4 may have entered its “intensive” production phase but it will not be processed your machines at any time in the next one or two years. In a financial call for people in the outfit with a lot of money, the developer said they hope to provide shareholders with the value of money, “Although we have no plans to issue Witcher 4 in late 2026.” Basically, confirm what you can guess anyway: There is no plan to bring the sequel to RPG out before 2027.
The main income call is a series of charts and tables with many numbers. The horror. But there are some opinions from the executives that have eliminated the ability to release early for the open role -playing game expected, as discovered by PC Gamer.
“We will not announce the exact launch date for the game,” said CD Projekt Red, Financial Director of Piotr Nielubicz when asked about the publishing plan during the Q&A. “All we can share now to provide more visibility for investors is that the game will not be released in the time frame of the first target for the encouragement program, ending on December 31, 2026.”
In other places in the call, the studio also confirmed that they will not use anyone to develop to help develop, mainly due to legal issues that can cause copyright and so on.
“AI gene, honestly, is quite difficult to mention the right to own the right IP, etc., and many other aspects,” said General CEO Micha & Lstrok; Nowkowski when asked about it. “So, when it comes to making any gene in real games, we really don’t happen when it comes to Witcher 4 or any project in the near future.”
Although it does not exclude the company using technology in the future, because even Nowakowski admits the studio has “investigated the use of potential AI solutions in our future products, including developing our custom AI models.”
The recent Witcher 4 trailer has confirmed that Ciri, not GLEM, will be the star of the next adventure. It saw her performing the battle with an ancient spider and suffered a typical heroic result for witch games. Placing Ciri in the center of the story will let the game discover gender discrimination in the fantasy world, CD Projekt said. It could be an interesting angle if done smartly. You can also be happy to know that the card game in the Gwent universe will return.
