CD PROJEKT RED announced that it is launching a special concert series to celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The timeless score of the game is being brought to life through a live orchestra performance and accompanied by cutting-edge visuals along with gameplay to properly commemorate its lasting legacy. This event is being dubbed as The Witcher in Concert.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released in May 2015. It is the third title in The Witcher video game series and played in an open world with a third-person perspective.

The exclusive run of concerts are planned for Poland though there's going to be an additional stop in Boston, Massachusetts, which is where the studio's new hub. For those not in the areas mentioned, not to worry since there's going to be additional tour dates in Europe in 2025. Then concerts are planned in North America at the beginning of 2026.

The full scale of the concert series, and ticket information, are to be released over and more information to be revealed through the official website and newsletter.

What can fans expect for this concert series? It's going to feature selected tracks not just from the game but also the expansions. These have been arranged for the occasion by none other than The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt composer Marcin Przybyłowicz. He'll also be joining select stops as a special guest.

The live celebration is further bolstered by Polish folk metal band Percival. They served as the co-composers of the game’s soundtrack and are known for their iconic contributions to the sound. In addition to the skilled orchestra, the band is expected to bring to life beloved tracks from Geralt’s journey through the continent.

The Witcher in Concert is made possible through a collaboration with GEA Live and RoadCo Entertainment, the producers of live entertainment events in over 40 countries worldwide.
