GDANSK (Reuters) - CD Projekt said on Thursday it plans to release its delayed Witcher 3 game for next generation consoles in the fourth quarter after guidance from its production team.

Poland's biggest video game maker had planned to release "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" for next generation consoles in the second quarter, but this was postponed in April as CD Projekt took work on the game back in-house.
