Age rating listings are a good indication of a game's release date. More often than not, the information listed found on these listings is accurate. However, there are instances when a game has already been listed on video game content rating systems and is still nowhere to be found. Case in point, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X.

Is The Witcher 3 releasing for the PS5 and Xbox Series S/X today?

The next-gen version of The Witcher 3 is still coming late 2021 unless otherwise confirmed by CDPR.

According to the Pan European Game Information website, CDPR should have released next-gen versions of The Witcher 3 today. The listing clearly states that the release date of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Game of the Year Edition for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X is on October 19, 2021. However, the game or update is nowhere in sight. This suggests that someone must have gotten their facts wrong.

CD Projekt promised earlier this year that it was going to release the next-gen versions of The Witcher 3 later this year, but with 2021 coming to an end, the update is nowhere near in sight.
