It’s Witcher week.
Season 3 of The Witcher kicks off this week, with volume 1 — there are two halves — streaming on June 29th. You can get a brief taste in this new trailer, in which Geralt is decidedly not excited about the future. (Maybe that’s because of this.)

The Witcher season 3’s new trailer has portals, parties, and plenty of bloodshed
Despite the name, Summer Game Fest isn’t entirely about games — case in point, we got a brand-new trailer for The Witcher’s third season. The clip shows off just about everything the series is known for: bloody battles, terrifying monsters, fiery magic, and Geralt looking very awkward at a social affair. And, of course, he spends lots of time talking about how neutral he is.
Season 3 of The Witcher starts streaming on Netflix on June 29th — or at least, some of it does. Just like Stranger Things before it, the latest season of the fantasy show will be split into two parts. Volume one will debut in June, while the second volume will premiere in July.

The Witcher’s third season starts streaming in June
Season 3 of The Witcher finally has a premiere date. Netflix announced that the fantasy series will return in June, though not all episodes will be available at once.
Similar to how Stranger Things 4 was split in two halves, The Witcher’s third season will be released in two batches: episodes 1-5 will start streaming on June 29th, while 6-8 will be available on July 27th. The third season was previously pegged for a summer 2023 timeframe. We also got a first look at the season via a brief minute-long teaser trailer.

Gotta believe that the “splitting” of high profile seasons is specifically to prevent people from doing “trial runs” on Netflix, binging, then bouncing. My wife and I have shared an account with my father in law for like 8 years now, despite almost never using it (we split the cost 50/50 and have more services as a result). Last night got the password sharing bullshit and now Netflix is gone for both houses because he barely used it either. She specifically mentioned we could just sign up for a trial of our own to watch season 3, then unsubscribe again since ethe account wasn’t in our name. I told her don’t bother I’ll just download it.
Welcome to the high seas! Yarr!
The only way I’m watching this abomination is if they announced a 12 month delay to reshoot the whole thing with a completely new production team.
Dont even hate watch, Netflix doesn’t care if you like something just that you watch it.
I feel very in the minority, because I loved the witcher 3 its one of my all time favorite games. But I also love this show. I just enjoy seeing the characters in live action and Im just not anal about it being VERBATIM the books or game iono
I’ll watch it. And I’ll even give Liam Hemsworth a chance when he takes over.
Man I love cavil as Geralt. I like Hemsworth but I’d definitely rather keep cavil. It just wouldn’t feel right without him
After last season I really have very little faith in this season. I’m torn to watch it at all, but like a car wreck, it will be difficult to prevent myself from gawking.
No thanks, they’ve butchered the material beyond belief
