The Witcher 4: What We Know So Far – Polaris, Release Date, and Everything You Need to Know About the Epic Sequel!

The Witcher 4 has been confirmed, and fans of the series are absolutely buzzing with excitement. Although we don’t have an official title yet, CD Projekt Red has teased that the next chapter in the Witcher saga is being developed under the internal codename Polaris.

The Witcher 4 – What’s the Deal?

While CD Projekt Red has not officially revealed the name of the game yet, the next installment in The Witcher franchise is being developed under the working title Polaris. This codename has fans speculating about potential connections to the game's storyline, but CD Projekt Red has remained tight-lipped about its significance.

Polaris will mark the beginning of a new saga in The Witcher universe. This suggests that while the game may share the same world, we won’t be picking up where Geralt’s story left off in.

31st December 2025 – Official Release Date?

The Witcher series has always been known for its epic storytelling and jaw-dropping world-building, and fans are eager to dive back into that world. According to current reports, Polaris is slated for release on 31st December 2025.

GOG’s Placeholder Listing for The Witcher 4: Polaris

On the official GOG website, a placeholder page for Polaris – the internal codename for The Witcher 4 – has appeared. This listing is important because it’s the first official acknowledgment of the game's release window on the platform. The page itself doesn’t include much more than basic information, but the key detail is the 31st December 2025 release date that has been attached to it.

Unreal Engine 5 and Stunning & No more Geralt?

One of the most exciting aspects of Polaris is the promise of next-gen visuals. Thanks to CD Projekt Red's shift to Unreal Engine 5, fans can expect an even more visually stunning worlds than ever before.

Though specifics are scarce, it has been confirmed that Polaris will start a new saga in The Witcher universe. While Geralt of Rivia’s journey is likely concluded, fans can expect a new protagonist to step into the limelight. There’s speculation that we may play as a new Witcher or perhaps even a character from the Witcher lore who hasn’t been explored in-depth before.

The Witcher 4, or Polaris, is one of the most highly anticipated RPGs in the works, and while the wait until 31st December 2025 might feel long, fans of the series have plenty to look forward to.
