They know the source material well, they know how excited gamers are to see the remake and they know how to make amazing, ambitious games. And while it will be a while before we’re ready to share more about and about the game, I know it will be worth the wait.”

“I’m very happy that my professional paths have crossed again with fellow developers from when we worked together on The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 3. Especially when it comes to a remake of a project which is so dear to us. We are thrilled to partner with CD PROJEKT RED, and our goal is to bring players another great game in the iconic Witcher series.”
