Back in April, we reported the new-gen version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was delayed. It was to come out in Q2 2022. Since development was moved in-house, more time was needed to polish the port. Now, on the title’s 7th anniversary, CD Projekt Red has revealed a new release date window of Q4 2022 for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on new-gen platforms, which includes PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, and PC.
Here is the official announcement:
Let's make this 7th anniversary even better, shall we?
We're delighted to share that the Next Gen version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is planned to release in Q4 2022.

Q4 of course encompasses the dates of October until December. So by year’s end, gamers will be able to play The Witcher 3 in all its stable frame rate glory!
CD Projekt Red global community director Marcin Momot reminded players of the game’s content. The new-gen release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will include the Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions, all previous DLC and patches, and new DLC inspired by the Netflix series The Witcher. A video game-accurate Henry Cavill will be sure to send all men and women into a tizzy.
