When it comes to anticipated 2020 video games, it might be hard to surpass the buzz surrounding CD Projekt Red and\u00a0Cyberpunk 2077<\/em><\/a>. Since it’s initial announcement in May of 2012, players seem to have been excitedly taking in every new piece of information released from the developer with many fans\u00a0having high hopes for it.<\/p>\n

While the hype continues to build behind\u00a0Cyberpunk\u00a0<\/em>leading up to its December 10 release, players that prefer traditional fantasy games are curious to see what CD Projekt Red develops next in its celebrated franchise,\u00a0The Witcher<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0Since the release of the third\u00a0Witcher\u00a0<\/em>game in 2015, it seems that the IP has only become more popular with additional forms of media with\u00a0games\u00a0like\u00a0GWENT\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0The Witcher Tales: Thronebreaker<\/em><\/a>, as well as the incredibly popular\u00a0The Witcher\u00a0<\/em>series on Netflix.<\/p>\n

However, what\u00a0The Witcher\u00a0<\/em>game series has lacked during these past few years has been a proper mainline sequel.\u00a0The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt\u00a0<\/em>may have provided players with a proper wrap up of Geralt’s story, but CD Projekt Red has indicated that it isn’t finished expanding on the world. In fact, according to the Polish developer, it has plans to return to\u00a0The Witcher\u00a0<\/em>series after\u00a0Cyberpunk 2077<\/em><\/a>, but was very keen to say that the next entry would not be\u00a0The Witcher 4<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It likely doesn’t make sense for the team at CD Projekt to name\u00a0its\u00a0 next\u00a0Witcher\u00a0<\/em>game\u00a0The Witcher 4<\/em>. The previous mainline games in the series were all centered around the trials and tribulations of Geralt on his various quests. And with one of the dev’s principal writers possibly teasing a new protagonist that isn’t Geralt<\/a>, it seems likely that the developer will drop the number altogether and decide upon a new subtitle for whatever the franchise looks like going forward.<\/p>\n

CD Projekt Red has actually gone on record about why it can’t do\u00a0The Witcher 4<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>a couple of years ago. In 2018, co-CEO Adam Kicinksi stated that\u00a0a fourth entry in the series wasn’t possible as the development team had always intended on\u00a0The Witcher\u00a0<\/em>games being a trilogy. However, he went on to clarify that doesn’t mean that it would be putting the franchise on the shelf and prequels and spin-offs were possible in the future.<\/p>\n

This won’t be unfamiliar territory for\u00a0The Witcher\u00a0<\/em>franchise. Netflix will soon have a full-length anime movie titled\u00a0The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf\u00a0<\/em>centering around Geralt’s mentor Vesemir and his early days as a Witcher<\/a>. And considering how popular the live-action Netflix series has become, perhaps\u00a0Nightmare of the Wolf\u00a0<\/em>could be the beginning premise of whatever CD Projekt Red has in store for the game franchise.<\/p>\n

The Witcher 4\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is rumored to be in development.<\/p>\n
