A new release date turned into no longer shared, but it's going to not arrive in the 2d sector (meaning between now and the cease of June), as changed into formerly announced.

The postpone is because of CD Projekt purple's internal improvement taking up the project. "we're presently evaluating the scope of work to be completed and accordingly should postpone Q2 release until similarly word," it said in a tweet nowadays. Previously, Saber Interactive were handling the port.

No reason was given for the shift to CDPR's internal group, which is also persevering with paintings on improving Cyberpunk 2077 and developing its post-launch content. Kotaku points out that it became a Russia-based totally team running on the sport, although CD Projekt pink declined to remark when asked if the Ukraine invasion factored into the decision to tug the game from Saber. CD Projekt formerly suspended recreation income in Russia.

We do not currently have any feel of how long this postpone is probably, but based totally on the indistinct timeline shared, we won't be seeing it any sooner than July 2022. Formerly, the port were slated for launch in late 2021, although CD Projekt crimson warned that it may be behind schedule.

Folks that already own The Witcher 3 might be able to improve to the new editions at no cost, even though specifics on exactly how that method will work (which include whether or not Xbox One proprietors can shift to the PS5 version) have now not been introduced. Likewise, we don't but recognise what sort of improvements may be made, even though all the Witcher three's DLC will be protected.
