CD Projekt Red has announced<\/a> that it\u2019s working on a brand-new Witcher <\/em>game, which will \u201ckick off a new saga for the franchise,\u201d and the first new mainstream title in the series since The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt<\/em><\/a> was released all the way back in 2015. <\/p>\n

The biggest news, however, is that the upcoming Witcher game will see CD Projekt Red switch over from its existing in-house REDengine engine \u2014 which the company has used for over a decade \u2014 to Unreal Engine 5<\/a>, as part of a \u201cmulti-year strategic partnership\u201d between CDPR and Epic Games. <\/p>\n

Despite that partnership, the next Witcher<\/em> game won\u2019t be exclusive<\/a> to the Epic Games Stores, and CDPR will continue to use REDengine for some current projects, like the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 <\/em>expansion, too. <\/p>\n
