The Witcher 4 Enters Full Production
CD Projekt RED confirmed back in the early months of 2022 that it had started early pre-production on the next instalment in The Witcher series, while much more recently, in August, the developer stated that the project would be moving into full production soon.
It has now crossed that milestone. CD Projekt revealed during its recent quarterly earnings call that Project Polaris – which is the codename under which the next Witcher is being developed – has now entered full production.
Game director Sebastian Kelamba wrote on Twitter, “I’m thrilled to announce that Project Polaris has entered the full-scale production phase! With new challenges just around the corner, it’s the talented and hard-working people who make me believe we can together make the upcoming Witcher Saga a remarkable experience. No stopping now! Stay tuned for what’s on the other side of the coin!”
CD Projekt says 400 people across the entirety of the company are involved with the development of The Witcher 4 (or whatever it ends up being called), which means it continues to be by far the biggest project in the works at CD Projekt RED right now.
Not much is known about Polaris yet, though it was previously confirmed by CD Projekt that it will be the first instalment in a new trilogy of Witcher games. Developed on Unreal Engine 5, the game will also see former series protagonist Geralt of Rivia returning, though not as the protagonist this time. Read more on that through here.
Meanwhile, the company has also announced updated sales figures for Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion, Phantom Liberty, both of which have continued to enjoy steady sales. Read more in that through here.
