CD Projekt Red has revealed that the development team for The Witcher 4 has grown to 499 developers, marking a major scale-up for the highly anticipated title. The studio added 88 new team members since early 2025, with more than half of its total workforce now focused on the project.

The expansion reflects the company’s commitment to delivering a major follow-up to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The upcoming installment will shift focus away from Geralt and instead follow Ciri, signaling a new direction for the franchise as development continues to ramp up.
