Can you believe that Witcher 4 is going to cost 800 million dollars? That’s right! CD Projekt Red is pouring around 800 million dollars into their next big RPG, making it the second most expensive game ever made, right behind GTA VI.
Let’s break down that number: $800 million. That doesn’t just cover development; it includes world-class CGI, next-gen engine upgrades, and global marketing campaigns. This is CD Projekt’s boldest move since The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
After learning from Cyberpunk 2077’s rocky launch, CD Projekt’s been rebuilding their reputation with steady updates, expansions, and cross-studio collaboration across Poland, the US, and Canada.
Now, they’re using everything they learned to create an even more dynamic and immersive universe. With branching stories, real-time consequences, and new playable factions.
Early leaks and comments from the dev team suggest Witcher 4 might blend The Witcher’s deep storytelling with Cyberpunk’s open-world systems, a mix that could redefine what RPGs feel like in the next generation.
Let’s talk money for a second, because this investment could be huge in more ways than one. Back in 2015, The Witcher 3’s success sent CD Projekt’s stock soaring over 2000% in a few years. Even after Cyberpunk’s ups and downs, the company stabilized and proved it’s here to stay.

If Witcher 4 delivers on its promise and with this kind of budget, it just might we could be looking at another major momentum shift for CD Projekt’s shares. For long-term investors who believe in their creative comeback, this might be a chance worth watching closely.
$800 million for Witcher 4! That’s a statement. A signal that CD Projekt is ready to step back into the spotlight and remind the world why they’re one of gaming’s most ambitious studios.
What do you think? Will this new project top The Witcher 3 and become one of the greatest RPGs ever made?
