When does The Witcher season 4 come out?
The fourth season of Netflix’s hit fantasy series is set to arrive just in time for Halloween. It has scared up a spook-tacular release date of October 30, the streamer has confirmed.
The Witcher series four will be released all in one go, instead of being split into multiple parts like the previous entry. Fans don’t have to worry about a month-long gap between episodes this time around.
It is set to have eight episodes in total and all will be available next Thursday (October 30).
What time is The Witcher season 4 out?
All eight episodes of fantasy series are set to land on Netflix at 8am British time on October 30. For those across the pond in America, The Witcher will be available at 12am PT/ 3am ET.
The full series will be available from October 30. As previously mentioned, Netflix has not split the season into two parts this time around.
What is different in The Witcher season 4?
The show has had a big change between series three and four - one that will be noticeable straight away. Henry Cavill has left the show and been replaced as Geralt of Rivia by Liam Hemsworth.
The Hunger Games star was announced to be taking over the reins of the hit series back in 2022 and three years later fans will finally get to see him in that distinctive grey wig. It marks a new era on the show.
Other new additions to the cast include Laurence Fishburne as Regis. Other actors joining the fourth season include Sharlto Copley, James Purefoy, Danny Woodburn, Linden Porco, Eve Ridley and Clive Russell.
The Witcher has been renewed for a fifth and final series as well - making it one of the longest Netflix original programmes.
What to expect from The Witcher season 4
Netflix has released a brief teaser for the season, it reads: “After the Continent-altering events of Season Three, Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri find themselves separated by a raging war and countless enemies.
“As their paths diverge, and their goals sharpen, they stumble on unexpected allies eager to join their journeys. And if they can accept these found families, they just might have a chance at reuniting for good…”
