- CD Projekt Red Joint CEO Michał Nowakowski says this sorcerer The trilogy may not have any expansions.
- The studio’s “ambitious” plan to release the sage within six years “would be difficult”
- This means The witcher 4 could be launched as a complete product
CD Projekt Red has suggested that the next sorcerer trilogy that begins with The witcher 4you may not get any expansions.
Speaking on the company’s latest earnings call following the announcement of The Witcher 3: Wild HuntThe third expansion, songs from the pastMichał Nowakowski, joint CEO of CD Projekt Red, responded to questions about the news, as well as The witcher 4which is currently in full production.
At one point, the joint CEO was asked if the company saw any room for possible expansions for the next game “given the very ambitious project pipeline,” in reference to CDPR’s plan to release a new trilogy of sorcerer games in six years.
Nowakowski doesn’t seem to think this would be ideal, saying: “As you mentioned in the question, the plans are quite ambitious.
“Specifically, it is to launch three sorcerer games over a six-year period. To be honest, it would be difficult for us to add an expansion to the next trilogy. “This is where we are here and now with this particular issue.”
The Witcher 3 It was launched in 2015 and has so far received two major expansions, hearts of stone and blood and winewithin 10 years, with songs from the past It is scheduled to arrive next year.
Due to the “ambitious” plan admitted by CDPR to start and complete a new sorcerer saga six years from now, it looks like each game will be about the same size as The Witcher 3So not only does this sound like a huge amount of work, but it also seems counterproductive for the development team to move away from subsequent sequels to add new content for previous games if they want to hit their target releases.
That’s even if the studio can stick to its timeline and release three games in the time it takes to create a single massive role-playing game (RPG).
On the same earnings call, Nowakowski revealed that the team “had a moment where our plans for songs from the past would be released this year,” but decided with the development team that “the game will be released in 2027 to achieve the best possible outcome from a consumer point of view, which in the end, frankly, is the only thing that really matters.”
CDPR has also confirmed that the expansion will be at Gamescom 2026; however, there will not be a hands-on demonstration in the showroom, but rather a presentation of some kind.
