CD Projekt RED reaffirms their plans to release 2 AAA games by 2021
- Thread starter Antiax
- Start date
Never knew that. I'm guessing they aren't so good from that?
No, I literally meant I have no idea, since it's never been clear how they divided their workload between teams so far.
👀👀👀
You know you want it
Hunting everything in the bestiary
All the Witchers schools / specializations
I'd love for #2 to be a Ciri-led Witcher but as Cyberpunk is probably coming out sometime in 2020 I can't imagine a second game of the same scale would be ready in so little time.
No, I know I DON'T, because "loot games" (as "strongly focused around gathering and swapping loot") are basically my most despised flavor of game progression in any genre.
And I'm not too fond of hack'n slash games either.
If they're doing two major hits by 2021, can cyberpunk be a 2019 gane!!!! That would be mind blowing!
100 Witchers are teleported onto the island of Thanedd and they are very not happy about it.
Cyperpunk - 7/7/20
Cyperpunk Moon expansion that CDPR Krakow is working on - 2021, basically what they did with Blood and Wine
Two Games, EZ PZ. People are crazy if they think Witcher 4 is coming anytime soon. They did playtests with a female character in 2017 IIRC, but they were unsatisfied with it and it got shelved. They dropped hints at the forum meetup in late 2018 that they were doing something with the Witcher IP, but it would be a long time before anything came of it. Konrad Tomaszkiewicz was apparently working on it, but his latest CV updates indicates he's been moved to Cyperpunk, so who knows what's happened with it. Could be another TW3 situation where the Cyperpunk preproduction team had to be moved on TW3 as they needed all hands on deck to ship.
I think it's more likely the remake TW1 than release TW4 within the next 5 years.
We should also get another Witcher Tales card game before 2021. Could be that as well. They dropped hints at doing a Iorveth campaign in Thronebreaker, and seeing how that character has gotten the short end of the stick, having both Dol Blathanna in TW2 and the plague questline in TW3 cut, it's obviously something fans would appreciate.
It has to be something cyberpunk related. They are now around 400 people or more and they are focusing on this game. No way its witcher 4 guys. Someone mentioned in here multiplayer standalone game, wich suits more than witcher. I dont want them to rush witcher :/
For this to happen they would have to be working on 2 games at once, right? They only have one main team which means that if Cyberpunk 2077 makes 2019, they would only have 2 years to make their next AAA open-world game which doesn't seem enough for a team of around 350-400. Or they could just be doing a Witcher remaster/remake which would technically count.
As I already said, they confirmed multiple times across the years, and in very clear terms, that this alleged 2021 release will be another triple A RPG.
Will they stick to the schedule? Unlikely. But they weren't obfuscating at all about what this is going to be.
GWENT. Oh and that Cyberpunk game, I guess.
Really though, I have no clue what the second game would be in this case.

Maybe I'll have both of the TW3's DLCs finished by then. Sob.
FUCK YES. IT WOULD BE PERFECT.
I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH I WANTED THIS UNTIL NOW.
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It's either that, or we need a proper AAA Arcanum re-imagining
but ActiBlizzard owns Sierra now, so I don't see that happening.
I think CD Project has grown enough to develop 2 major titles at the same time,or at least lay the foundations until the majority of the devs set in.
So yeah,it's not impossible at all

Why would you double dip come next gen when you already have a PC version?
I'm not, I'm getting the PC version. There are people out there though that don't play on PC's, I know I was shocked as well.
? I thought you meant you would double dip the game on PC + Next Gen? That's why I asked, chill. Geez.
Lol ok, i respect that
But
i still think they will try to have a product geared towards a continuous stream of revenue
The should release all the Witcher games in one box for next gen and call it The Red Box:
The Witcher and TW2 remake with the newest engine.
The Witcher 3 enhanced (E3 trailer graphics). All games with RTX support.
Thronebreaker.
Would sell 5+ million copies.
Yeah this is what i would guess. And I'm not mad because I'll take quality over quantity.
They have it.
It's called "Gwent"
They also have a digital storefront selling retro games not available anywhere else.
Dude i know but they're both not setting the world on fire are they?
Just recently we got the news of layoffs and the end of the FPP on GOG
I like the idea that they're double-dipping into Mike Pondsmith's IPs and the other game is Castle Falkenstein, so Steampunk. :D
You say this while Cyberpunk 2077 offers full customization of your protagonist.
And I would have preferred a defined protagonist in cyberpunk too, but whats done is done . And Cyberpunk is completely different IP with different design goals and approach. Me wanting a defined protagonist in next witcher game has nothing to do with Cyberpunk, despite feeling disappointed in their decision
Cyberpunk 2077 - 2019 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
Cyberpunk 2077 GOTY Edition - 2020 (PS5/Scarlett/Stadia)
Witcher 1 Remake/Cyberpunk Multiplayer Game - 2021
Cyberpunk 2077 GOTY Edition - 2020 (PS5/Scarlett/Stadia)
Witcher 1 Remake/Cyberpunk Multiplayer Game - 2021
You're all getting me hyped with the Witcher 1 remake speculation. I tried that game two years ago, but I just couldn't stand the controls and dropped it halfway through chapter two.
