Did you receive an invitation to a Witcher 4 closed beta test? No you didn't, according to developer [[link]] CD Projekt, which says the purported invites offering an early look at the new game are in fact just a scam.
"Recently, we've been getting reports from some community members that they've been invited to a beta test of The Witcher 4—this is a scam!" [[link]] the studio wrote on Bluesky.
One such closed beta invitation—not a real one, remember—that apparently appeared on Instagram was posted to Reddit last week. As is often the way with these things, it looks fine in a brief, at-a-distance glance, but a closer view gives away the game through numerous [[link]] spelling and grammatical errors.
But some people just don't make it to that step: They see "Witcher 4 beta" and immediately mash the button, and the trouble begins. It's human nature, really—as with so many things, we should know better by now, but seemingly we do not.
CD Projekt said that if it does put together any beta tests in the future, "you will hear about it first, as always, via our official social media and websites," rather than through an ad on an external platform.
The likelihood of that happening seems slim—I don't think any previous Witcher game or Cyberpunk 2077 went through external beta testing prior to release—and even if CD Projekt did decide to offer a closed beta for The Witcher 4, the game's not expected to be out until sometime in 2027 at the soonest. Given that time frame, we've got a good wait yet before beta testing even becomes a reasonable possibility.
