After all its delays, The Witcher 3 current-gen version finally has a release window
Despite recently being on the end of an indefinite delay, the current-gen upgrade of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has finally been given a definitive release window. CD Projekt Red has revealed that the much-anticipated PS5 and Xbox Series X/S version of The Witcher 3 is set to release by the end of 2022. Let’s hope this release window sticks the landing.

We were meant to receive the upgraded version of the RPG in the second half of 2021 before it got delayed until further notice in April 2022. Fingers crossed it doesn’t get delayed again before its intended Q4 2022 release.

It’s been a big year for CD Projekt Red with the big current-gen
