Wind's howling – and soon, so will the cheers of fans at The Witcher in Concert, when the acclaimed fantasy franchise makes its Asian live debut this November.
For the first time in the region, audiences can experience the haunting world of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt through an immersive orchestral performance at Marina Bay Sands’ Sands Theatre in Singapore on Nov 29 and 30.
Marking the 10th anniversary of the critically acclaimed game, the 120-minute concert (with intermission) will feature a live orchestra, cinematic visuals, and the Polish folk metal band Percival Schuttenbach – co-creators of the game’s distinctive soundtrack.
Under the musical direction of co-composer Marcin Przybyłowicz, specially arranged tracks will bring Geralt of Rivia’s journey to life, from fierce battle themes to haunting lullabies.

Presented by Base Entertainment Asia and produced in collaboration with CD Projekt Red, Gea Live, and RoadCo Entertainment, the show takes audiences through the war-torn lands of Velen, the stormy shores of Skellige, and the deeply personal quests of the White Wolf himself.
Originally a series of novels by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher became a global phenomenon following the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in 2015, which has sold over 60 million copies and won more than 250 Game of the Year awards. The franchise also inspired a popular Netflix series, introducing characters like Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri to a wider audience.
At the upcoming Singapore concert series, audiences will watch gameplay footage and cinematic scenes projected on a large screen, synchronised with every note of the live score to heighten the drama and emotion. It promises to be an unforgettable experience for fans of the game, the series, or orchestral fantasy music.
The concert also reflects a growing global trend: music from video games is increasingly finding a place in concert halls, from Final Fantasy and The Legend Of Zelda to Halo and Elden Ring.
