The much anticipated second volume of Netflix's The Witcher Season 3 will premiere on the platform on July 27, 2023, almost a month after the release of the first volume.

The Witcher season 3 part 2: Everything we know so far
While the trailer for the show's second part hasn't been released yet, there are many interesting plotlines that the first part episodes have already teased. For one, the second part of the show will feature more fresh faces, including Milva, the beloved archer who will make her TV series debut.
The fifth Witcher novel, Baptism of Fire, introduced Milva, a human who assists the Scoia'tael in guarding elves.
The thrilling cliffhanger that has captured viewers' attention is resolved when Dijkstra holds a knife to Gerald's throat and tells him he should have picked a side. This sentiment was echoed by several characters throughout the first half of the season.
There is uncertainty among audiences regarding Geralt's escape from the current situation. Due to his longstanding commitment to neutrality, the impact of his decision to finally endorse one side over the other will be profound and far-reaching, affecting the entire continent.
Fans are also looking forward to seeing the unexpected relationship between Jaskier and Radovid, a novel twist exclusive to the TV show.
In episode 4 of the first part, titled The Invitation, the couple shared a kiss, however, they were not present in the next episode The Art of the Illusion. Fans can anticipate significant character changes in both love and war in the upcoming finale episodes of Season 3.
