Last start delay The Witcher 3 for PS5 and Xbox Series X | S forced CD Projekt RED to step out and soften the news. In conversation with investors (via polygonal), a Polish study claimed that the game didn’t go into “development hell”or development hell.
Michal Nowakowski, the company’s senior vice president of business development, tried to downplay the problem. While he didn’t elaborate on the hypothetical release date for the highly anticipated game on the current generation of Sony and Microsoft consoles, he did mention that the new delay will not be as long as expected.
According to the director, the headlines around the delayed landing The Witcher 3 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, they were not entirely successful. “One that really caught my attention said:The Witcher 3 release for next-gen consoles delayed indefinitely‘ as if the game was in some kind of development hell. I would like to state that this is not true. There were a lot of hints that we are going to release it next June or something like that. It’s not like that at all,” he said.
What Nowakowski says is aimed not only at reassuring investors, but also at the players. who have already expressed their impatience with repeated delays. Also, after the launch fiasco Cyberpunk 2077, every setback in CD Projekt RED’s production (no matter how small) becomes an invitation to unbridled criticism on social media. It is then likely that the firm is trying to minimize this reaction.
“No one is saying the game will be delayed for a monumental amount of time,” he added to back up his stance.
When will he arrive The Witcher 3 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S?
CD Projekt RED has not yet announced a specific arrival date The Witcher 3 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Recall that the most recent delay in its launch corresponds to the decision of the Poles to resume its development in their own studios. this is the version next generation was in the hands of Saber Interactivewho has already worked on publishing this game for the Nintendo Switch.
It is assumed that the reason for such determination is related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. Although Saber was based in the United States, it has always had ties to Russia and this may have influenced CD Projekt RED’s final decision; however, this has not been confirmed or denied by the parties involved. “The game will be finalized internally. We value our time and that requires a bit of investigation,” Nowakowski explained.
When The Witcher 3 reaches current Sony and Microsoft consoles, this will be done with an arsenal of novelties in the technical section. The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S version of the game will offer higher resolution and higher frame rates; more detailed textures and support ray tracing. As for content, DLCs inspired by the successful Netflix series starring Henry Cavill were promised mid-2021.
