- The co-CEO of CD Projekt Red states that the demand for single-player games will never disappear.
- He believes that coming titles, like Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk Sequel, will continue to be popular.
- The studio has also confirmed that it will double down on making more single-player games.
While many developers have been focusing on live-service projects, recent years have suggested that single-player games are still the best, and most gamers still prefer them over multiplayer titles.
Just now, CD Projekt Red has also stated that demand for single-player titles like The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk will never disappear as the genre remains popular.
Why it matters: Not too long ago, the Astro Bot director stated that developers should create smaller games as players have a backlog of games they can’t complete.
The latest financial report from CD Projekt Red discussed multiple things, like when to expect the next entry in the Witcher franchise, and the demand for single-player games was also discussed.
Co-CEO Michał Nowakowski talked about how the studio will continue to develop single-player games and believes that titles like The Witcher 4 and the Cyberpunk sequel will continue to be popular.
We believe that cutting-edge single-player games rooted in strong franchises and immersive narratives will continue to enjoy great popularity.
Michał Nowakowski also discussed how the company collaborates with global tech and innovation leaders to offer fans top-quality games.
Our experience, along with brands such as The Witcher and Cyberpunk, which it is our pleasure to further develop.
The studio has also confirmed that it won’t use generative AI for its upcoming projects. Still, fans must wait a long time to try a new title from the studio, as The Witcher 4 won’t be released before 2027.
Recent reports have also suggested that Rocksteady will return to Batman’s single-player game after the failure of Suicide Squad. So, the coming years must be exciting for the genre’s fans.
