CD Projekt Red Job Listing Sparks Speculation About The Witcher IV Release Date

A new CD Projekt RED job listing has prompted speculation that The Witcher IV could be released in May 2028. The position comes with a contract that runs through the end of April that year.

CD Projekt RED previously confirmed that the next Witcher game will be released in 2028. The studio is hiring a legal counsel for the Business & IP division of its legal department, with a contract lasting until April 30, 2028.

The role includes “providing ongoing legal advice on matters related to CD PROJEKT RED’s activities, including rights clearance for materials, terms of use, communication with players, and ensuring that our products comply with applicable laws and regulations.”

The company has not disclosed details, but the position could be connected to a marketing campaign for an upcoming game that ends in late April. The Witcher IV is set to be the studio’s next major release, while the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel and the remake of the first Witcher game will arrive much later. That makes the game about Ciri a likely candidate.

The series’ release history has also been cited as a possible clue. The Witcher 2 was released on May 17, 2011, and The Witcher 3 followed on May 19, 2015, making May 2028 consistent with the franchise’s previous release timing.

For now, CD Projekt RED is focusing on the Songs of the Past expansion, which is expected in 2027.
