The Witcher: CD Projekt Red announces a remake on the Unreal Engine 5, 1st info

    CD Projekt Red dropped the bomb on The Witcher's official website: a remake of the very first episode released in 2007 is currently in development. Excellent news both for the fans of the first hour, but also for all those who, until now, had not had the courage to embark on the adventures of Geralt of Rivia. According to what we are told, it is not CD Projekt which is directly in charge of the project (too monopolized, no doubt, by the future of Cyberpunk 2077 and the next The Witcher) but Fool's Theory, a another Polish studio which notably worked on Outriders and Baldur's Gate 3. That's not all, since it is also at work on Project Vitriol (code name), an RPG based on a brand new license.

    Purists can be reassured, CD Projekt Red indicates that it is closely monitoring the progress of the work. "Collaborating with Fool's Theory on the project is just as exciting, since some people there have been involved in the development of The Witcher games, assures boss Adam Badowski. They know the source material well, they know how much the players expect this kind of recreation, and they know how to make ambitious and incredible games." Certainly aware that the announcement of The Witcher Remake will cause impatience within the community, CD Projekt Red immediately calms the game. "It is still early days and we want to ensure that the creation is done with the utmost care and attention to detail possible, so while we're thrilled to share the news, we ask for your patience as we won't be sharing project details for a while," it read. 

    “The Witcher is the project that started it all for us, for CD Projekt Red, adds Adam Badwoski. It was the very first game we did, and it was a big moment for us at the time. at that time and recreating the game for the next generation of players to experience, that's just as huge for us, maybe even more so." No, the remakes are not about to stop, especially with a series that has more than 50 million games sold worldwide.
