Hey, there's another Witcher game on the way. It's in development at CD Projekt Red right now and will apparently run on Unreal Engine 5. That's pretty neat. CPDR announced the news today with a single image: a mysterious witcher medallion buried in snow.It's also likely the only image we'll have of the sequel for quite some time, so let's dissect it to see what we can glean about the next Witcher game right now. For starters, let's cover what we already knew about The Witcher 4 before today.
Hey, there’s another Witcher game on the way. It’s in development at CD Projekt Red right now and will apparently run on Unreal Engine 5. That’s pretty neat. CPDR announced the news today with a single image: a mysterious witcher medallion buried in snow. It’s also likely the only image we’ll have of the sequel for quite some time, so let’s dissect it to see what we can glean about the next Witcher game right now. For starters, let’s cover what we already knew about The Witcher 4 before today. Geralt won’t be the protagonist (but could cameo) It’s likely still years away It probably won’t be called The Witcher 4 These facts bring us to today’s snowy teaser. We don’t know where Witcher 4 will take place or who the protagonist will be, but that medallion raises some major questions, starting with: Is that a Cat school medallion? Is that a Cat school medallion? Sort of, but not really. The School of the Cat is one of seven witcher schools depicted in the books and games. As with witchers as a whole, the Cat school is essentially defunct and few of its witchers remain by the time the games come around. There aren’t many cat witchers wandering around the world of The Witcher, but we do know what their medallions look like. Here’s a Cat medallion (left) compared against the new medallion (right) shown in today’s Witcher 4 teaser.
