The Witcher 3 next-gen versions will arrive in Q4 2022 – Destructoid

The shinier Wild Hunt looms closer

Geralt’s adventures won’t be waiting too long to hit the newer generation of consoles. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt next-gen version is now slated to launch sometime in Q4 2022.

The news arrives today via The Witcher Twitter account, roughly lining up with the seventh anniversary of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt‘s launch. The next-gen version, which should bring The Witcher 3 onto PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S as its own version, is planned to release in Q4 2022.

The next-gen version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has slid around a fair bit. It moved into 2022 and then, most recently, slid into an undefined window. Alongside that news, CD Projekt also confirmed that it was bringing development in-house, rather than over at Saber Interactive. The team at Saber had previously handled The Witcher 3‘s Nintendo Switch port.

Something ends, something begins

CD Projekt had this next-gen version in the works alongside Cyberpunk 2077 next-gen. The latter launched in February, in a surprising reveal and release event.

But while Cyberpunk 2077 is a fairly new game, it’s been seven years since the launch of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. It’s a massive game, but it’s fair to say that Witcher fans would probably like to see how the world looks on newer hardware.

Anticipation for new Witcher content is likely also higher than usual, thanks to the recent announcement of a new Witcher in development. The next step in The Witcher universe is being made in Unreal Engine 5 at CD Projekt Red.

The studio has also been strictly calling it a new saga. With a new step forward in the world, it’d be nice to have a next-gen version of Geralt’s journey too. The old witcher got a nice send-off with Blood and Wine, and it’d be nice to re-experience that.

We’ll see what CD Projekt Red’s got in store as the year rolls on.
