CD Projekt RED has announced five new projects: a new witcher<\/em> game codenamed \u201cSirius\u201d by The Molasses Flood, new witcher<\/em> trilogy by CD Projekt RED, new witcher<\/em> game codenamed \u201cCanis Majoris\u201d by a third-party, new Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> game codenamed \u201cOrion\u201d by CD Projekt RED’s new Boston studio, and an entirely new intellectual property codenamed \u201cHadar\u201d by CD Projekt RED. <\/p>\n

Get the details below.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Long-Term Product Outlook<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u25a0 The Witcher<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNow, allow me to introduce our production plans for further years. The first three releases in our pipeline will belong to The Witcher<\/em> franchise, and we’ve already started pre-production of two of them,\u201d said CD Projekt RED president and Joint CEO Adam Kicinski.<\/p>\n

Sirius<\/strong> (by The Molasses Flood)<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

\u201cThe Molasses Flood game, codenamed ‘Sirius,’ is set in the Witcher universe and is being created with support from CD Projekt RED developers. It will differ from our past productions\u2014in the sense that it is targeted at a broader audience. Along with the single player experience gamers will be able to play with others, as ‘Sirius’ will contain multiplayer.<\/p>\n

new witcher<\/em> trilogy<\/strong> (by CD Projekt RED)<\/p>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n

\u201cAnother project, codenamed ‘Polaris,’ is the game which opens the new witcher<\/em> saga further expands upon the open world storytelling known from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em>. There will be three games in the saga and we aim to deliver them over a six-year period starting from the release of Polaris. It’s a bold statement as we are talking about three large-scale productions, but we really mean it and we have a plan on how to achieve it. Both the second and the third installations will, in technological terms, benefit from the groundwork laid during development of Polaris. In this way we aim to smoothen the development process while at the same time staying creatively ambitious.<\/p>\n

canis majoris<\/strong> (by Third Party)<\/p>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n

\u201cThe next project\u2014codenamed ‘Canis Majoris’\u2014will be another full-fledged witcher<\/em> production. It will be created by an external studio that Michal just spoke about, headed by experienced developers who have worked on earlier witcher<\/em> games. Techwise, we plan to use Unreal Engine 5 and the toolset we are creating for Polaris.<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Cyberpunk 2077<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAs you have seen there is a lot happening in the world of The Witcher<\/em>so let’s jump into the dystopian future.<\/p>\n

Phantom Liberty<\/strong> (Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> Expansion by CD Projekt RED)<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we plan to release [\u2026] a major expansion for Cyberpunk 2077<\/em>titled ‘Phantom Liberty.’<\/p>\n

Orion<\/strong> (by CD Projekt RED)<\/p>\n

\"Cyberpunk<\/figure>\n

\u201cAnother project that we want to focus on is Orion, again it’s a codename, the next cyberpunk<\/em> game that will fully unleash the potential that this universe offers. Our ambitious plans will require a lot of work, dedication and further growth of the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cSpeaking of which I have important news to share. We are creating a new studio based in North America. Next to The Molasses Flood\u2014which will remain solely focused on Sirius\u2014we are setting up a team in Boston, that together with our existing Vancouver-based team will establish CD Projekt RED North America. This studio will be in charge of leading development of Orion. This move will enable us to fully draw upon the North American talent pool.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u25a0 New IP<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hadar<\/strong> (by CD Projekt RED)<\/p>\n

\"Hadar\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cI am excited to announce that CD Projekt RED has begun creative exploration on a third, entirely distinct IP\u2014codenamed ‘Hadar,’\u201d said CD Projekt RED senior vice president of business development Michal Nowakowski. \u201cWe had started thinking about it a few years ago. Early-stage conceptual works commenced in 2021, and\u2014for the first time in our history\u2014the IP is being incubated entirely within CD Projekt RED. It is important to understand that we are not making a game just yet. We are working on the foundation of this new setting.<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Multiplayer<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"CD<\/figure>\n

\u201cThat would be all about the new games, but we have more to share with you today. While we believe that our games and worlds we create within them are telling great stories that impact many, we also believe that letting gamers interact with each other will create new experiences for them. By doing so, we do not want to make the single player experience smaller in any way because of that direction. What is important, Unreal Engine 5\u2014our new engine\u2014offers a solid tech framework, allowing us to develop multiplayer for most of our future titles. Our approach to developing online competences, and a broad overview of the technological changes occurring at the Group, are presented by Board Members responsible for these respective fields.\u201d<\/p>\n

Message from Marcin Iwinski<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cHi everyone,<\/p>\n

\u201cToday I have some news that’s both important to me and to the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am beginning a brand new personal chapter at CD Projekt, as I will submit my candidacy for the role of Chairman of the Supervisory Board, leaving behind my Joint CEO role.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the end of 2022, I’ll hand over my duties to my colleagues from the board. For me, this is a huge moment. I’ve been at CD Projekt for almost 30 years and I have seen it go from a handful of passion-driven rebels to an internationally recognized developer of story-driven role playing games loved by millions globally. Back when Michal Kicinski and I founded the company, I don’t think either of us would have been able to imagine this incredible journey, not even in our wildest dreams.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I think about the future of CD Projekt, it is so exciting for me. Today, the company consists of over 1,200 people across offices all over the world. But CD Projekt has never been about physical place or scale\u2014it’s all about the huge amount of talent we have, and the hard work and dedication of everyone who chooses to work here.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is thanks to that commitment and amazing talent that right now I have that same feeling I had all those years ago\u2014hunger and optimism for what’s ahead. It really feels like this is only the beginning. Our hugely ambitious strategy has such an inspiring and strong team at the helm, and I deeply believe in our plan to take CD Projekt to new heights. As such, I intend to remain a major shareholder, and in my new non-executive role I will remain active and engaged dedicating my focus on supporting the entire Management Board. I will also remain connected to the core of what makes us special, which is making the best storytelling games in the world and doing right by gamers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to thank everyone who has ever been a part of what I think is one of the most vibrant video game companies in the world. I say this to every RED team member, every business partner, and-most importantly-every gamer\u2026 From the bottom of my heart thank you!\u201d<\/p>\n
