We are deeply honored by the opportunity to partner with CD PROJEKT RED to push the limits of interactive storytelling and gameplay together, and this effort will benefit the developer community for years to come.” “Epic has been building Unreal Engine 5 to enable teams to create dynamic open worlds at an unprecedented scale and level of fidelity. Tim Sweeney, Founder and CEO of Epic Games, weighed in as well. I can’t wait for the great games we’re going to create using Unreal Engine 5! This cooperation is so exciting, because it will elevate development predictability and efficiency, while simultaneously granting us access to cutting-edge game development tools. It is vital for CD PROJEKT RED to have the technical direction of our next game decided from the earliest possible phase as in the past, we spent a lot of resources and energy to evolve and adapt REDengine with every subsequent game release. From the outset, we did not consider a typical licensing arrangement both we and Epic see this as a long-term, fulfilling tech partnership. One of the core aspects of our internal RED 2.0 Transformation is a much stronger focus on technology, and our cooperation with Epic Games is based on this principle. It’ll also probably come as somewhat reassuring to the many fans who experienced technical issues with Cyberpunk 2077, since Unreal is a more stable and widely used gaming engine.ĬD Projekt Red CTO Paweł Zawodny had this to say about the switch: Previous Witcher games, as well as Cyberpunk 2077, were all built on CD Projekt Red’s own REDengine. The switch to Unreal 5 for the next run of Witcher games speaks to the company’s dedication to continuously expanding its technology to provide even more seamless gaming experiences. This next Witcher game is part of a new long-term deal between CD Projekt Red and Epic Games, and will be built using Epic’s Unreal Engine 5. Unlike the noble Wolf School witchers like Geralt, the School of the Cat has a somewhat unsavory reputation because many of those that trained there eventually hired out their swords and worked as assassins. The Cat School is one of the other witcher schools on the Continent. Note that it is not a wolf’s head like Geralt’s, but a cat. This is further backed up the medallion itself. (Although I’d be surprised if none of our mainstay characters appeared at all.) This seems to imply that this will not necessarily be a continuation of Geralt’s story, but could be something totally new. The announcement comes directly from CD Projekt Red itself, complete with an exciting image that shows a witcher’s medallion in the snow.
