Good news, Witcher fans! Netflix has revealed thatThe Witcherseason 3 will make its debut in mid-2023.
Announced by the hit fantasyNetflix show’s lead star Henry Cavill atTudum 2022, The Witcher’s next installment will debut on our screens in summer 2023. For those who live in the southern hemisphere, it’ll be with you in winter 2023. Such is the way of the changing seasons and all that.
Take a look at the official confirmation ofThe Witcher season 3’s launch window via the tweet below:

The release window unveiling comes just a few weeks after production wrapped on The Witcher’s third season. The series' next entryhad spent the past six months being shotin numerous locations, but principal photography ended on September 12. Showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich confirmed as much via herpersonal Instagram account. Hissrich previously told TechRadar thatwork was set to ramp up The Witcher’s third season back in December 2021.
Of course, The Witcher season 3’s release date is yet to be determined. A launch window of summer 2023 means it could arrive any time between June and September next year. Given the sheer amount of post-production work that’ll have to be carried out, we’d be very surprised if it isn’t with us until the latter part of summer – i.e. August or September 2023. That’ll mean it’ll be close to two years sinceThe Witcher season 2debuted, but it won’t eclipse the two-year wait we had between seasons 1 and 2, the latter’s release being delayed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
While we wait for season to be released, there’s plenty of other Witcher news for you to catch up on.
