CD Projekt Red is working on more games set in The Witcher and Cyberpunk universes, as well as a brand new franchise that is being created entirely in-house.
There was an announcement for The Witcher. The first game in the trilogy will be called "Polaris" and was announced in March by CD PR. Unreal Engine 5 is going to be used to develop the game. The games will be delivered over a six-year period starting from the release of Polaris, according to Adam Kiciski.
There are more than one new game in the works. There is a title called "Canis Majoris" but it is not a part of the new trilogy. An outside studio will develop it. CDPR is willing to work on more games with external partners.
The other title, called "Sirius," will have a single-player experience, a campaign, and a story, according to CD PR. CDPR acquired The Molasses Flood in October of 2021. The next-gen release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is expected to launch before the end of the year.
The next Cyberpunk game will take the franchise further and continue to harness the potential of the dark future universe, according to CD PR. CD Projekt Red North America is the new studio based in Boston that will be working on the game. There is a new studio in Boston. The Cyberpunk 2077 expansion, called Phantom Liberty, will be released in 2023.
The new and third major franchise is called Hadar. The project is in the early stages of the creative process, which means we are not developing any game yet, but working exclusively on the foundation for this new setting We don't know when we'll be able to play a game from this franchise, so we may be waiting a while.
One thing to look forward to is that it sounds as if CDPR is looking to incorporate more of its upcoming games in part because of Unreal Engine 5. "UE 5, our new engine, offers a solid tech framework allowing us to develop Multiplayer for most of our future titles."
The co-founder and joint CEO of CD PR will be stepping down. He is going to become the chairman of the company's board.
