Summary
2028 is now the confirmed release window for The Witcher 4, with the Witcher team saying in a Gamescom update that the next mainline entry will be “worth the wait.”
Gamescom will not feature The Witcher 4 itself, leaving fans without new footage despite the first official timing for the game’s launch.
The Witcher 3 expansion Songs of the Past will fill that gap, with a major Gamescom presence including Opening Night Live and REDStreams showing “a lot” of the 2027 DLC.
That timeline means CD Projekt Red is signaling a long runway for its next flagship Witcher game while keeping the franchise active through expansion content first.
