Two and a half years after announcing The Witcher 4 – or rather the “the first instalment in the new Witcher saga”, as it’s now more officially known – CD Projekt has confirmed pre-production is almost over and that full production on the game will begin “soon”.
CD Projekt’s joint CEO Michał Nowakowski shared the news in a press release outlining the studio’s work so far in 2024, explaining development on the new Witcher game (codenamed Polaris) is “nearing a major milestone which will mark the end of the pre-production phase”.
In an earnings video accompanying CD Projekt’s latest financial results, chief financial officer Piotr Nielubowicz expanded on Nowakowski’s comments a little, saying, “The Polaris team, working on the next game in The Witcher saga, made substantial progress, which will soon enable us to wrap up pre-production and take this project to the full production phase.”
