CD Projekt RED’s Adam Kicinski has confirmed that their next triple-A game will be a title set in the Witcher universe. However, this new game will not be called The Witcher 4. So yeah, I’m pretty sure we won’t be seeing Geralt in it (or at least that’s my guess).
As Kicinski stated:
“We have already been working on another single player game. We currently have a relatively clear concept about what it is. However, we do not want to spend time on it at this moment. After the work is done on Cyberpunk 2077, we’ll start developing our next game.”
Kicinski has also confirmed that CD Projekt RED will further invest on both the Cyberpunk and the Witcher universes.
“We have two worlds and within these worlds we want to create games. Therefore all our upcoming games, so far, are either “Witcher” or “Cyberpunk”.”
In case you are wondering, the development of this new The Witcher game will not have a negative impact on Cyberpunk 2077. As Kicinski noted, the initial development of this game will be handled by its smaller team. The other two bigger teams will focus on both supporting Cyberpunk 2077 and developing its multiplayer mode.
Stay tuned for more!

Geraldine of Rivia, a pleasure.
you can bet it will be starting a woman and it will be full of poz, didnt that other game in witcher setting they made also star a woman?
And sold like crap, granted was a cards game. Safe bet is that it would be a Ciri game (i’m fine with that, i like the character), given the direction CDPR is showing and going.
nah it will be with custom character, they said it some time after W3 release that next game in series will be SP open world rpg with custom characters as they want to tell other stories and Geralt is holding them back.
Like every other western character creator im sure where you have a dozen options and they are all people of color.
It would be ideal but it won’t happen. Normies will be all over it.
Why did Bub&Bob cross the road?
Because his di*k was still stuck in the chicken.

Just a reminder that CyberPunk 2077 was announced in 2012! 8 years ago. So… We can probably expect Witcher 4 to be 2028.
They are going to work and support Cyberpunk 100% for at least 2 years. DLC and they want to add some dumb MP. Then pivot everyone on to Witcher 4 team.
no TW4 i guess. but i love if they release sequel to TW3 by playing siri (probably).
Toss a coin!
in one of the endings of 3 she becomes a witcher.
They are so far from the books to this point, they can do almost whatever they want. Add to that there’s a lot of people waiting for a Ciri cameo in Cyberpunk (CDPR already claimed it won’t happen, they can always lie)…so there’s interest in that.
Would be cool to have a game where you create your own witcher (of course, you would be limited to a male character because lore…and you think current CDPR would risk a backlash like that? don’t think so) and all (with a trial of the grasses as a tutorial included) and CDPR is experimenting with custom characters with CP77 so, but i doubt it, too soon to be certain.
What a shocker! Who would have thought! Next he’ll say the sky is blue and the grass is green.
P.S. Another reminder that everyone is out of fresh and original ideas. Why create something new when you can milk the old franchise to oblivion, right? We might never know if CDPR is actually capable of developing something original and not based on pre-existing source material that would also be great.
I saw you mention Oblivion then my eyes rolled back in my head trying to read anything else you wrote.
God, I would love another Elder Scrolls. Please keep milking Elder Scrolls and Witcher series.
remake of 1st game hopefully
These days, Remake means “bigoted nazi” content cut and “new ethic standards” implemented.
