The Witcher is getting a second anime and a "kids and family" show

Netflix has revealed that a second Witcher anime is coming to follow Nightmare of the Wolf , along with... a family show?

to follow up Nightmare of the Wolf, and a "kids and family" show.

Netflix had its big 'Tudum' event this weekend, bringing with it a load of great new announcements and trailers for various shows, including all the details on Season 3 of the show was already greenlit.

There also was a couple of big new announcements, although sadly without much detail. The first is the reveal that a second The Witcher anime movie is on the way, which will presumably act as a follow-up to last month's Nightmare of the Wolf starring young Vesemir – although that hasn't been confirmed, and it hasn't got a title.

The second, perhaps more intriguing, project is the news that Netflix is producing a "kids and family series set in the world of The Witcher". While it is totally possible for a children's series to have adult or dark themes, The Witcher is one of the most adult fantasy series around – that's part of its appeal – so it'll be interesting to see what Netflix has planned.

There was also a brief behind-the-scenes look at the distant-past prequel The Witcher: Blood Origin too, which still sadly hasn't got a release date.
