CD Projekt RED, the producer of The Witcher trilogy and Cyberpunk game, announced that they will bring 5 new Witcher games to the players in the past months. Later, the studio announced that The Witcher, the first game of the Witcher universe, will be remade by Poland-based sister studios “Fool’s Theory”.
Today, CD Projekt RED officials made some statements about this remake. According to the information given, the game will be quite different from the first game.
You will rediscover the Witcher universe
According to CD Projekt RED’s investor meeting today, The Witcher Remake will be quite different from the original game. If you remember, aside from the graphics of the 2007 game, the gameplay mechanics were pretty shallow and seedy. Aware of this, CDPR officials stated that the game will be open world instead of “running from mission to mission” and will be equipped with a fighting mechanic similar to the Witcher 3.
Having worked on popular games such as Baldur’s Gate 3 and Divinity Original Sin before, Fool’s Theory is an experienced team especially in story-based open world games. Of course, it is said that we can see one of the biggest open world games we have seen to date, with the contributions of experienced CDPR employees who have worked on The Witcher trilogy. It was also announced that the only thing that will not change in the game will be the story of the original game.
CDPR’s statement about The Witcher Remake that “it will remain like the original game next to Witcher 3” raises expectations about the game. However, the fact that the company made similar statements just before the Cyberpunk 2077 debacle also greatly discourages the players.
At the meeting, no information was shared about The Witcher Remake’s release date.
