It’s “The Witcher” time again! While the second season of “The Witcher” is only just on Netflix, of course many fans are wondering whether “The Witcher” season 3 will come. The answer to the question is a resounding “yes”!

“The Witcher” Season 3: Launch on Netflix

An official start date for “The Witcher” season 3 has not yet been announced. The third season is expected to start in winter 2022. Since Ciri actress Freya Allan has confirmed that some scripts are already finished, we can expect that we won’t have to wait two whole years for new episodes.

Plot from “The Witcher” season 3

Showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich has already commented on the plot: “It’s an entertaining season and it follows a certain book very closely, has a lot of action, a little death … a little death“. Spongy, yes, but we know exactly which book we are talking about!

According to Hissrich’s statements, the plot of “The Witcher” season 3 is based very faithfully on the second volume of Geralt’s pentalogy “The Time of Contempt”. The first season was based on short story collections and the second season will be based on the first novel of Geralt pentalogy.

“The time of contempt” is about Ciri completing her training as a sorceress in Aretusa. There she meets Geralt of Rivia and there are riots during a magic congress and many magicians die. Geralt is badly wounded in the fight against Vilgefortz.

It is also revealed that Ciri is a direct descendant of the legendary rebel Falka and thus a “child of the older blood”. This storyline was already picked up in the second season.

Vilgefortz ‘assistant Rience takes Ciri prisoner to bring her to the Emperor Nilfgaards, Emhyr var Emreis, known as “The White Flame”. There she is freed by a gang of murdering and robbing youngsters, whom she then joins.

• Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia

The Witcher: Season 3 production

The official confirmation of the third season of “The Witcher” came in September 2021, around three months before the second season started on Netflix. The good news was spread in an Instagram post.

In addition to “The Witcher” Season 3, fans can also expect a second part of the anime film “Nightmare of the Wolf”. In addition, the prequel “The Witcher: Blood Origin” is already being worked on.

Filming for season 3 is scheduled to start in the first quarter of 2022. The scripts are currently being worked on in Los Angeles, as showrunner Hisstich has confirmed. Actress Freya Allan (Ciri) has even read some scripts so things are going well.
