About this listen

CD Projekt Red has officially announced a new mainline entry in their acclaimed fantasy series, codenamed Polaris and titled The Witcher IV, which is currently targeted for a 2026 release. This upcoming title transitions the narrative focus from the iconic Geralt to Ciri as the primary protagonist, utilizing her unique Elder Blood abilities to evolve the franchise's traditional combat mechanics. Developing the project on Unreal Engine 5, the studio aims to deliver a technologically superior experience featuring high-fidelity visuals and more reactive open-world environments. The game serves as the foundation for a fresh trilogy, supported by a massive development team dedicated to avoiding past technical pitfalls through rigorous testing and new production workflows. While Geralt is confirmed to return in a supporting capacity, the story will explore untapped lore and new locations like Kovir. This ambitious roadmap, supplemented by a rumored expansion for the third game, positions the series for a major multimedia renaissance over the next decade.
