The Witcher 4 Named Most Anticipated Game, While The Witcher 3 Wins Award for Remaster

CD Projekt RED secured a double victory at the Golden Joystick Awards 2026 ceremony. The Witcher 4 won in the "Most Wanted Game" category, surpassing Fable and Resident Evil Requiem. The award was received on behalf of the studio by Production Director Małgorzata Mitręga.

She noted that the victory was a great honor for the team but also placed additional responsibility on the developers. According to her, the audience's recognition gives the studio strength to continue working on the project.

Another award went to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered, which won in the "Best Remake/Remaster" category. Thus, the game continued to expand its collection of Golden Joystick Awards trophies.

In previous years, The Witcher 3 has repeatedly won in various categories, including "Game of the Year," "Best Story," and "Best Visual Design." In 2016, separate awards were also given to the expansion Blood and Wine and actor Doug Cockle, who voiced Geralt.

In 2027, a new expansion, Songs of the Past, is expected for the game. Meanwhile, CD Projekt RED continues development on The Witcher 4, with its release, according to the latest data, expected in 2028.
