CD Projekt has revealed that the game codenamed project Polaris – that “first instalment in the new Witcher saga” that we’ve all been referring to as The Witcher 4 just to make thing a bit less confusing until a proper name is slapped on it – is just about ready to enter full production.
According to joint CEO Michał Nowakowski in a press release detailing the studio’s latest earnings figures and progress on its current projects, preproduction on Polaris is on track to wrap up soon, with the developers “nearing a major milestone” that’ll mark this point. So, as of right now, CD Projekt is “gearing up” to launch into that next phase.
In an earnings video that adds the this smorgasbord of witchery info, CD Projekt CFO Piotr Nielubowicz added that in the first half of 2024, the Polaris development team has “made substantial progress”, which will allow that step into full production to be taken “soon”.
