That is proper, people, you may lastly begin counting down the times to the following Witcher recreation, as manufacturing has lastly kicked off at CD Projekt Crimson.
Now, do not get too excited because it’s nearly undoubtedly nonetheless years away, however these of you desperately hoping for some Witcher updates lastly have a juicy one: the director of the following Witcher recreation has confirmed that manufacturing has began on Challenge Polaris (the codename for the following entry within the widespread RPG sequence). “I am thrilled to announce that Challenge Polaris has entered the full-scale manufacturing section!” wrote Sebastian Kalemba on his private Twitter account. “With new challenges simply across the nook, it’s the gifted and hard-working individuals who make me imagine we are able to collectively make the upcoming Witcher Saga a outstanding expertise. No stopping now! Keep tuned for what’s on the opposite aspect of the coin!”
That final line is in reference to a photograph paired with the tweet, which you’ll see above, of some cash laying on a stone flooring. Clearly if manufacturing has solely simply began on the sport, we’re nonetheless a great few years out from being truly capable of play it. What number of years? Do not ask me! Have not the foggiest, however I will cross my fingers for all you Witcher followers that it will be someday this decade on the very least (we have about 5 years to go till the following one, however all of us keep in mind what occurred to Cyberpunk 2077, do not we).
One necessary factor to notice about this upcoming sequel is that it appears unlikely to outright be The Witcher 4. Subsequent 12 months it’ll have been a full decade since The Witcher 3 got here out, and with recreation improvement taking so lengthy numerous video games are designed to be welcoming to new gamers even when they’re sequels (simply have a look at Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and the way little it references Breath of the Wild).
The voice of Geralt himself has even stated the following one is not concerning the sequence’ mainstay protagonist, although he would not know who will probably be about. Again when the sequel was revealed it even famous that it is the begin of a brand new saga, so it is fairly secure to say this’ll be beginning recent, kind of. I am positive we’ll discover out extra when CD Projekt Crimson is able to present extra.
