CD Projekt has just revealed a slew of new games by announcing the company's plans for the next few years. The company's long-term outlook includes six new projects, ranging from a brand new IP, to more Cyberpunk content, and several new Witcher games.

The Witcher series will see three entries in a new trilogy and two spinoff games. Codename Sirius is "an innovative take on The Witcher universe" and will be developed by The Molasses Flood--one of CD Projekt's studios, though not to be confused with CD Projekt Red themselves. Project Canis Majoris will be a "story-driven, single-player open-world RPG" based in The Witcher universe, and will be developed by an unnamed third-party studio that consists of former developers from previous Witcher games.

Project Polaris is an ambitious one, promising not only a brand new Witcher title developed by CD Projekt Red, but a full trilogy of games. Polaris will be "built on the legacy" of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and is currently in the pre-production stage. Once the initial game in the trilogy is released, CD Projekt Red plans on delivering the other two sequels within a 6-year period.

Cyberpunk isn't left out of the party, either--a major expansion for Cyberpunk 2077, titled Phantom Liberty is currently nearing the end of its development, and will be released next year, adding lots of new story content to the game. Beyond that, CD Projekt Red plans on eventually developing a full sequel for Cyberpunk 2077; one that "will prove the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe".

Most of these projects have no set timeframe for release, and are early on in either development or even pre-production. Finally, a new internal IP is in the works, currently only in the conceptual phase, and worked on by "a small strike team", titled Project Hadar. This one will be developed internally, and has been an idea thrown around by the studio since late 2021. According to CD Projekt, this one will be distinct from either The Witcher or Cyberpunk 2077.

You can dream big when even the most unfinished and raw hot garbage is bought by 20mln dunderheads.

Sequel?? Is the game even completely stable now and well polished, to begin with?

CYBERBROS! GET IN HERE! WE EATIN GOOD!

Game is in a fairly decent state in terms of bugs. Very much playable with more updates, overhauls, a dlc on the way. But theres just some story/engine, fundamental issues that can’t be fixed with updates. It’s best to polish this up as best as possible, hop onto UE5, and start building up night city to its fullest potential there. The lore is rich, the setting is awesome, it deserves a second shot

CDPR dev: sir our last game released unfinished and a mess because we were overworked, are things going to get better now that we've fixed 2077?

CDPR boss: (:

Cyberpunk 2077 was one of the most well written, and frankly extremely fun games I've ever played. I'm more than excited for a sequel if the same talent is working on it. Especially after how real Judy's story was.

 

[Kioku]

A new Witcher trilogy? That's pretty neat. Wonder if they've got all of the stories outlined then since they're going that far out?

I still need to run through Cyberpunk...

I also genuinely enjoyed Cyberpunk and am excited for a sequel. I played it at launch, so yes there were bugs, but honestly some of the worst of them just made me laugh and enjoy the game more. Didn't really run into anything truly frustrating, personally. One of my favorites, I wish I'd had a screen recorder running for. A guy spawned inside a car, standing up. So of course I think "What happens if I drive this car?", I got in, drove it an inch, the guy splits into like 60 guys and the car goes flying. Literally one of the best bugs I've ever encountered in any game, I was laughing for probably a whole minute. Regardless of how you feel about bugs, I agree with one of the above posters that the story was genuinely excellent. If the sequel has good story and actually manages to bring official VR support, it's gonna be another day-one buy for me. I can forgive bugs, but I still really want VR support like we were supposed to have in the original.

I forgot they were changing engines. I thought they would be like Bethesda, and just keep updating their old one.

 

[osaka35]

can't wait for cyberpunk to be "finished" before i play. it's safer for my sanity to consider AAA releases to be beta releases, and only finished after a few years of bug-fixes and dlc updates. not a great perspective if i want to stay fresh for my streaming, but eh.

hoping all these come to fruition. i quite like my story-driven rpgs.

At this point almost all AAA games, even Nintendo ones, are just hot garbage and prototypes at heart. People should not bother with them anymore, play indie games or older games.

 

[Bladexdsl]

Cyberpunk 2077 sequel is this one gonna be delayed for 10 years this time?

 

[Noctosphere]

CyberPunk 2078 : Coming in late 2078

 

[ChibiMofo]

I wonder how many people will be dumb enough to pre-order Cyberpunk 2077's sequel after the absolutely unforgiveable fiasco that was the original?

I'm just hoping I won't be too old to game by the time it actually releases.

lol, so you probably haven't played many games, have you? Otherwise this statement must be trolling.

 

[AndorfRequissa]

the sequel will be a finished version of the original game lol

Yeah I know it's unthinkable to someone with a reddit rageface for a pfp but some people actually genuinely enjoy video games

I tried to play Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time yesterday on my new gaming rig... I now have a RTX 3070, so I thought, hey, the game received years of patching and I have a card that is more than sufficient! I can probably even do Ray-Tracing!

And yet... it refuses to give me a stable 60 FPS. I cannot imagine how it must have felt for the team to need to ship the first version that made it to market. If this is the performance NOW... just wow.
