CD Projekt Red<\/a> is working on the next game in The Witcher<\/a> franchise. The Polish developer had confirmed in 2022 that it had started work on The Witcher 4. Codenamed Polaris, the game will be the first in a new Witcher trilogy. The studio has not yet revealed any details about the upcoming RPG, but The Witcher 4<\/a> will reportedly feature Geralt of Rivia, but not as a protagonist. The iconic character’s voice actor has said that the titular Witcher will not be in a central role in The Witcher 4.<\/p>\n

The Witcher 4<\/h2>\n

Doug Cockle, voice actor for Geralt in the first three Witcher games, has said in a new interview that the silver-haired monster hunter will be in The Witcher 4, but won’t be the protagonist in the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Witcher 4 has been announced. I can’t say anything about it,\u201d Cockle said in the interview<\/a> (as spotted by VGC<\/a>). \u201cWhat we know is that Geralt will be part of the game, we just don’t know how much. And the game won’t focus on Geralt, so it’s not about him this time,\u201d Cockle said.<\/p>\n

The voice actor, however, did not comment further on the protagonist of The Witcher 4. \u201cWe don’t know who it’s about, I’m excited to find out!\u201d<\/p>\n

Cockle, who has voiced Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/a>, said that he had not seen the script for the next game in the series yet.<\/p>\n

The Witcher Games in Development<\/h2>\n

The Witcher 4 was first announced<\/a> by CD Projekt Red in March 2022. The studio had said at the time that work on the game had begun, but did not provide a release window. CD Projekt Red had also confirmed that it had partnered up with Epic Games<\/a> to develop The Witcher 4 in Unreal Engine 5.<\/p>\n

Later that year, the studio provided more details<\/a> about the future of The Witcher franchise, confirming a new trilogy headed by project \u2018Polaris’, a remake of the first game \u2014 The Witcher \u2014 built in Unreal Engine 5 and codenamed \u2018Canis Majoris,’ and a multiplayer Witcher title, codenamed \u2018Sirius.’ CD Projekt Red has not yet confirmed a release timeline for its upcoming Witcher projects. The studio has also confirmed that it is working on a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
