CD Projekt are best known for their award winning Witcher series. The Witcher 2 looked beautiful and excelled in the RPG category, they listened to the community and offered free, quick patches and free future content. Now they are talking about making a new AAA title that will be “set in a totally different universe” from the Witcher series. Having experience in making a great RPG one can only assume they’ll be making a new RPG set somewhere else. What do you think?
It’s great to see a company make a new, original IP. Publishers are so scared of investing in an original idea today that they will only invest if the developers are pitching to make a sequel to a successful game.
CD projekt are in no rush to spill details and will do so “…when the time is right.”
Sounds like something to look forward too.
Scifi? Fantasy? History? Zombies? Modern? A new IP could be many things, but the style of CD Projekt of more gritty, adult RPGs sounds nice. I have the Witcher 1 but I have not gotten round to play it yet, it is one of the many.
I’ve yet to play Witcher 1. I started on Witcher 2 and because i was new to the series there was no tutorial so i found it really hard to use powers and learn combat. They however did fix this by adding a tutorial and a new arena game mode in the latest patches.
