According to the plans, the release date would be the second quarter of 2022.

However, CD Projekt Red seems to be unable to spare time for The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt project while dealing with the delay problems and post-release frustration with Cyberpunk 2077, while dealing with update works. Because not much information was shared about the project. In addition, the remastered version of the game was being developed by Saber Interactive. Along with all this, the news of the postponement was announced on the official account of the game.
