"Fans Awaiting The Witcher 4" — a CD Projekt Red employee warns that "people are not ready."

CD Projekt Red is preparing a new “Witcher”

Developers from the Polish studio CD Projekt Red have not yet revealed details about their new open‑world fantasy action game – *The Witcher 4*. Nevertheless, it’s already clear that the project promises to be something truly outstanding.

How interest in the new “Witcher” emerged
During a period of information drought around the project, senior cover‑art designer at CD Projekt Red Felix Pedulla decided to intrigue fans. He joined the studio at the end of 2025 and has since been actively sharing his impressions of working there.

In his first LinkedIn post, published after seven months with the company, Pedulla talked about moving from Larian Studios (known for *Baldur’s Gate 3*) and how the CD Projekt Red team helped him adapt quickly. He noted:

> “Huge thanks to my team and everyone at CD Projekt Red for the warm welcome and help in getting up to speed. And knowing what we’re preparing for The Witcher 4? Yeah… people aren’t ready.”

What fans are saying
On Reddit, users joke that “not ready” is more about the game’s high system requirements than the game itself. They recall issues with launching *Cyberpunk 2077* and emphasize that the new project may demand more powerful hardware.

Technical details
- Release date: expected no earlier than 2027.

- Platforms: PC and current‑generation consoles.

- Technology: developed on Unreal Engine 5.

- Format: first part of a new trilogy.

Conclusion
Although CD Projekt Red is still keeping the details under wraps, it’s already clear that *The Witcher 4* will be a significant step forward. The team promises a high‑quality product on a modern engine, and fans can expect an exciting open world and deep storyline that will continue the legendary series.
