The Witcher series, and the third entry in the series, in particular, managed to elevate CD Projekt Red among the best developers still active today. Geralt's adventures are seemingly done, but it looks like the Polish team is not going to abandon the franchise for good.

Speaking with Polish website Strefalnwestorow, CD Projekt CEO Adam Kiciński reiterated that they have always envisioned The Witcher series as a trilogy, with The Witcher 3 being its conclusion. At the same time, he's aware that fans and investors would never forgive them if they abandoned the franchise, and so they will likely develop other titles set in the universe in the future.
