During a recent CD Projekt Group conference, Co-CEO Michał Nowakowski stated that the developer aims to launch the next Witcher Trilogy, that is Witcher 4, 5, and 6, within six years of each other. When asked if the next titles will have a “shorter and more predictable cadence,” Nowakowski responded, “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, that would mean we would plan to have a shorter development time between The Witcher 4 and The Witcher 5, between The Witcher 5 and The Witcher 6 and so on.” The Witcher 4 is currently in full development with over 400 staff currently working on it, but no official release window. The Witcher series have surpassed 75 million units. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG.
