Unfortunately for those looking to snag The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for the PS5 or Xbox Series, the wait will have to continue. CD Projekt RED has announced a delay in the release for the next-gen version of The Witcher 3.
According to the post on Twitter, the developer has decided to continue the remaining work on the port with their in-house development team. “We are currently evaluating the scope of work to be done and thus have to postpone Q2 release until further notice.”
Previously, The Witcher 3 was originally supposed to arrive in 2021 on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, although that was delayed to Q2 2022 last October. This also comes after the developer had announced last month that they had begun work on a new entry in the series.
The reason for the delay wasn’t explained in the post, although CD Projekt RED did say that they would update fans “as soon as we can”.
Currently, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. The Netflix adaptation of the video game is currently in its third season of production.
We have decided to have our in-house development team conduct the remaining work on the next-gen version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. We are currently evaluating the scope of work to be done and thus have to postpone Q2 release until further notice. 1/2
