The upcoming The Witcher 4 is going to be tectonic for CD Projekt Red, as an analyst believes it's going to cost the company the bones of one billion dollars. He estimates the total cost of the fantasy sequel will be around 10-times those of the threequel.
Per a report from Mateus Chrzanowski of Noble Securities, via Strefa Inwestorow (machine translated) and Clawsome Gamer, The Witcher 4's total budget is estimated to be (at the current conversion rate) in the realm of $778.9 million US dollars, a jump on every other release CD Projekt has shipped to date. But while the development costs alone are substantial, they aren't all that'll be impacting the bottom line.
