Witcher enthusiast website Redanian Intelligence reports that a post on Netflix Netherlands’ Facebook and Twitter accounts detailed the release dates of 10 upcoming shows, with The Witcher among them. The dates were revealed by a “how many sleeps until…” format, with The Witcher listed at 97 sleeps to go.By that count, The Witcher seems to be due for release on Netflix on December 17, 2019. The posts have now been deleted – potentially because of inaccurate information, or just because Netflix is not ready to reveal such information yet. As such, take this leak as a potential indication of release date, rather than solid confirmation.When asked for comment on the report, Netflix told IGN that "the release date for The Witcher is not yet confirmed." It's worth noting that Netflix's biggest releases generally drop on a Friday, so it would be surprising for the streaming service to debut a major tentpole on a random Tuesday in December.IGN will be debuting an upcoming IGN First with inside intel about the making of the Netflix series later this year. Watch our breakdown of what we saw in the video below:The Witcher TV show adapts the books of Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, rather than the CD Projekt Red games. Geralt of Rivia remains the main character, although the timeline of the show is significantly earlier in Geralt’s life than when the video games are set. Our guide to the books will help you prepare for the Witcher series.We also visited The Witcher’s set, and shared what we saw , and interviewed The Witcher cast at San Diego Comic-Con , where Henry Cavill told us he has played through The Witcher 3 game multiple times.
