The Witcher 4 Brings Back Dandelion, But Expansion Role May Be Small

The Witcher 4 is scheduled to launch in 2028 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. This timeline gives players a long wait for the next mainline entry in the series. The delay also impacts how fans view the upcoming content for the previous game.

Voice actor Jacek Kopczynski has not yet recorded lines for the upcoming DLC

CD Projekt Red confirmed that Jacek Kopczynski will return as Dandelion in The Witcher 4. Kopczynski voiced the character in the original trilogy and its expansions. His return ensures continuity for the beloved bard in the new installment.

The studio has not yet invited Kopczynski to record lines for The Witcher 3 expansion, Songs of the Past. The expansion focuses on Dandelion's family and origins. This lack of recording activity suggests his role in the expansion may be smaller than anticipated.

Kopczynski stated he is still waiting for an invitation to read the script and record lines. He has not been brought into the studio for the upcoming expansion. This detail clarifies the current development status of the DLC.

The Witcher 4 remains the primary focus for the franchise's future. The expansion for The Witcher 3 is a separate project with limited voice work so far. Players should expect the main game to arrive in 2028 as planned.
