“We’re happy to announce that the next installment in The Witcher series of video games is currently in development, kicking off a new saga for the franchise,” wrote CD Projekt. “This is an exciting moment as we’re moving from REDengine to Unreal Engine 5, beginning a multi-year strategic partnership with Epic Games.”

CD Projekt continued: “It covers not only licensing, but technical development of Unreal Engine 5, as well as potential future versions of Unreal Engine, where relevant. We’ll closely collaborate with Epic Games' developers with the primary goal being to help tailor the engine for open-world experiences.”

I am super thrilled to announce that I have humbly been working to ensure the success of the next big AAA The Witcher game as its Game Director! Think you could join the team? We have tons of roles open with the possibility of remote work we could discuss! https://t.co/bBbxs0JMmqMarch 21, 2022

No further details regarding the game or a release date were shared but considering there was a five-year gap between The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Cyberpunk 2077, I wouldn’t expect to see this game on shelves until 2025 at the earliest. The Witcher 4 has also been confirmed to not be exclusive to the Epic Games Store when it comes to PC.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was wildly (see what I did there) successful and accumulated more than 30 million sales globally. It also helped gain the attention ofNetflix, which then made its own series from the books with Superman actorHenry Cavilltaking up the role of Geralt of Rivia.

Cyberpunk 2077 launched in December 2020, however, the game suffered from major issues at launch. The developer then released anext-gen versiononly a few months back that looks to have addressed numerous bugs.
