"We're not disclosing any details regarding the target release date, so there's not a point in time I could refer to when answering such a question. The only thing we're commenting is that we're not launching in 2026 "
"In a way, yes, I do believe that further games should be delivered in a shorter period of time - as we had stated before, our plan still is to launch the whole trilogy within a six-year period, so yes, thatwould mean we would plan to have a shorter development time between TW4 and TW5, between TW5 and TW6 and so on."
"In other words, if The Witcher 4 releases in 2027, CD Project Red Aims to have the final game released by 2033. That's an ambitious statement for a company that has struggled to meet its own release dates in the past. If they pull it off, they'll have managed to successfully launch three games in nearly the same span of time it takes them to announce and release just 1 title."
CD Projekt Red typically takes four to five years from announcement to release for a game. The studio aims to launch The Witcher 4 and two sequels within a six-year period. The studio confirmed there will be no launch in 2026. The team expects shorter gaps between sequels and plans to leverage tools, features, mechanics, and assets to accelerate development. The studio is moving to Unreal Engine 5, which may speed up sequel production. The first game remains the most time-consuming part, and meeting a condensed schedule will be a significant challenge given rising triple-A development times.
