Upcoming CD Projekt Red games are a dime a dozen right now, but given the waiting we'll have to do to play them, it feels a little bit like starving in front of a buffet. Lots of upcoming CD Projekt Red games are in the pipeline, with the studio confirming a lot of different projects are in the works. The new games in development range from the likes of a Witcher 3 follow-up that will be the start of a multi-game saga, to a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, and even a remake of the first Witcher game. There's so much to look forward to.
As a studio that's brought us some of the best RPGs of all time, it's undoubtedly exciting to know some new adventures await us. And looking back on 10 years of The Witcher 3, which has had such an influential impact on the genre and the open-worlds we see today, it's no wonder the likes of the next big Witcher game is among the 50 most anticipated games we know about.
To get a full breakdown of everything that's in the works or set to come from the developer, read on as we break down all of the upcoming CD Projekt Red games that are currently on the way.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Songs of the Past DLC
Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S
Release date: TBC 2027
We got a very surprising announcement on May 27, 2026, that a new expansion will be heading our way for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Titled Songs of the Past, the DLC will give us new content and an update to the game's system requirements to improve performance.
While there is no release date for this expansion yet, we do know that it will be heading our way sometime in 2027 and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. We also don't know what the story could be yet, however, we are betting that it will have some kind of nods to the other upcoming CD Projeckt Red game, The Witcher 4 (read on for more on that one). However, "Songs of the Past" could also point towards setting up the Witcher 1 remake that is also on the way. We'll keep you posted as soon as news and clues drop.
The Witcher 4
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
CD Projekt Red confirmed the existence of The Witcher 4 in March 2022 and has since given us a brief look at what will be "a story-driven open-world RPG built on the legacy of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt." Built using Unreal Engine 5 – rather than CDPR's proprietary RED Engine, which powered The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 - the studio is pushing for outrageous visual fidelity and depth for its new single-player adventure.
A trailer dropped during The Game Awards 2024, confirming at long last that Ciri is the main protagonist of the next adventure, with the cinematic footage showing her putting her monster-slaying skills to good use in style. Excitingly, we also know the Witcher 4 is merely "the beginning of a new saga." The wait for The Witcher 4 is already unbearable, but if you'd like to get in the mood early, we'd recommend taking the time to clear these best adventure games off your backlog.
New Witcher trilogy
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
Since The Witcher 4 is only the first part of a "new AAA RPG trilogy", that means there's also a new The Witcher trilogy of games in development, and CDPR has big ambitions. The original trilogy was released across eight years and offered wildly different experiences, with The Witcher available as a PC exclusive and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings never making it to PlayStation platforms.
With these three new Witcher games, CDPR says it is aiming to deliver the lot "within a six-year period following the Polaris release", which should make for a more cohesive package of games.
The Witcher Sirius
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
The Witcher Sirius is a brand-new game set in The Witcher universe, which is being developed by The Molasses Flood. That's the studio that was acquired by CDPR in 2021, and is best known for two excellent survival games: The Flame in the Flood and Drake Hollow. CD Projekt Red says that Codename Sirius will "differ from our past productions'', as it will be "offering multiplayer gameplay on top of a single-player experience, including a campaign with quests and a story".
Expect something different then, especially with the studio teasing that this will be "an innovative take on The Witcher universe". Development of The Witcher Sirius was reportedly rebooted, with The Molasses Flood going back to the drawing board in collaboration with the wider CDPR team to ensure that this game can deliver on its promise.
The Witcher Remake
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
While CDPR will be hard at work on its new trilogy of games, it will be enlisting the help of outside studios to continue expanding The Witcher universe. Originally codenamed The Witcher Canis Majoris, CD Projekt Red has now revealed it's actually a Witcher Remake - a full remake of the original Witcher game that will be a "modern reimaging".
For this one, CDPR will be collaborating with an "external studio headed by experienced developers who have worked on past Witcher games", and that studio is Fool's Theory. It's going to be created using Unreal Engine 5 – just like The Witcher 4 – but, warning, CDPR says it's "gonna be a while until we can share more details".
Cyberpunk 2077 Orion
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
Had you asked me a few years ago, we'd have speculated that we'd never see a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel. But after years of careful improvements and updates, it would appear that CD Projekt Red has found some stability in Night City. After surging past 20 million copies sold, not to mention beating The Witcher 3's all-time concurrent player record on Steam, CDPR has put a new game into production.
Cyberpunk Orion is described by the studio as a "Cyberpunk 2077 sequel that will prove the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe," with the company adding that it plans to "take the Cyberpunk franchise further and continue harnessing the potential of this dark fantasy universe." No other information is available, but expect Cyberpunk 2077 Orion to release well after The Witcher 4.
CD Projekt Red Hadar
Platforms: TBC
Release date: TBC
If CD Projekt Red wasn't already content with developing a new trilogy of Witcher games and a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, it's also working on another project. The studio says that it has been working on a "standalone IP distinct from The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077" since 2021. Project Hadar is being developed in-house by CDPR, and it's still in the conceptual phase.
"Hadar is a codename for a third, entirely distinct IP, created from scratch within CDPR. The project is in the earliest stages of the creative process, which means we are not developing any game yet, but working exclusively on the foundation for this new setting." Expect updates on Project Hadar to be a long way off.
