How to watch WitcherCon on Friday

To call the 10-second Witcher season 2 video Netflix showed in mid-June a "trailer" is generous, but at least we found out when we'd see more: WitcherCon on Friday, July 9, starting at 10 am Pacific.

WitcherCon is a new event that Netflix is putting on with CD Projekt Red, and it's the first time we know of that the companies have collaborated on anything related to the Geralt tales they both licensed (the show and RPGs are both based on the books, and aren't officially connected). The event consists of two livestreams, and they're pretty packed. A few of the things we expect to see:

• A proper look at The Witcher Season 2 (and the release date, maybe)
• Stories about the making of the Witcher RPGs
• A look at The Witcher anime film
• Henry Cavill, but probably not in a tub

WitcherCon Stream 1 schedule (10 am Pacific)

• The Witcher Season 2 Q&A: The main event will feature "surprise reveals" and a "dash of chaos" as The Witcher cast members and showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich answer fan questions about the Netflix show.
• Welcome to Gwent: Seems like this'll just be a video from CD Projekt Red introducing viewers to Gwent. Makes sense they'd try to get fans of the Netflix show to check it out. 
• The Witcher Season 2 Yen/Ciri panel: Actors Anya Chalotra (Yennefer) and Freya Allan (Ciri) discuss their characters and what to expect from them in the new season.
• Stories behind the Witcher games, part 1: A bunch of CD Projekt developers discuss the creation of the Witcher RPGs, reminiscing about "old memories" and "uncovering forgotten artifacts."
• Geralt of T-Rivia: A trivia panel with Hissrich, as well as Declan De Barra, showrunner of upcoming prequel show The Witcher: Blood Origin, and two CD Projekt quest designers, Błażej Augustynek and Philipp Weber.
• Inside Kaer Morhen: A dive into the lore behind Kaer Morhen, the castle where witchers were once trained.
• Monster Slayer presentation: A look at CD Projekt's Witcher AR game, which is out this month.
• The World of The Witcher Figures: A panel about Witcher figurines, if the title didn't give it away.
• A conversation with Henry Cavill: The stream closes with a chat with Geralt himself, Henry Cavill, who may "have a surprise or two in store." The season two date, maybe?

What won't be at WitcherCon?

A new Witcher game. CD Projekt made that clear right away, cutting off speculation by stating unambiguously that "no new Witcher game will be announced at WitcherCon."
