During the State of Unreal 2025 event, CD Projekt Red presented fresh footage from The Witcher 4, the forthcoming chapter in its celebrated franchise. The cinematic trailer depicts a cadre of merchants who are ambushed at night by a Manticore, a beast recognized by devoted fans. Our new protagonist and Witcher, Ciri, subsequently arrives to face the creature.

The trailer wraps up at this point. For those keen to see how CD Projekt is leveraging Unreal Engine 5, a tech demonstration was presented right after, which can be viewed online.
Although it does not provide a complete gameplay reveal and no specific release date has been revealed, the studio is targeting 60 fps with ray tracing on the standard PlayStation 5. This is an ambitious goal, particularly after the problematic launch of Cyberpunk 2077.
