How to watch WitcherCon: Date and time, stream, what to expect, more

Somehow unexpectedly, this June CD Projekt RED and Netflix announced WitcherCon, a joint project between the two companies with a goal to celebrate The Witcher universe with fans, developers, and actors.

Due to the ongoing pandemic, the first-ever WitcherCon will be held online, but that doesn't mean that there won't be a reason to watch it, au contraire.

Netflix and CD Projekt Red have announced the full schedule of the event, and we now know everything that will be featured throughout the two streams of WitcherCon.

By far the biggest star will be Geralt of Rivia himself, Henry Cavill, who will have his own segment where he will talk about his passion for fantasy and the Witcher Universe.

Other content will include several interactive panels, conversations with actors, developers' insights about games, The Witcher quizzes, and much more.

One warning though, if you expect a new The Witcher game to be announced, CD Projekt RED explicitly states that no new game will be revealed, so keep your expectations low in that regard.
