States A Very Bright Future For The Game!

Story Highlight
  • The ex-design director of Project Sirius teased a bright future for the multiplayer title.
  • The game will be “one for the books”, according to him.
  • Project Sirius had a rocky start under The Molasses Flood but will be back on track with CDPR following their merger.

The Witcher franchise is set to see a surge in new releases, with CDPR working on multiple new entries. Among these announced titles is Project Sirius, a multiplayer Witcher project.

CDPR hasn’t disclosed many details regarding the game, but Project Sirius’ ex-design director has teased a bright future for the game

Why it matters: The Witcher franchise has been regarded as one of the best RPG franchises of all time. Expectations for the future entries are high, and such claims ensure that CDPR won’t be letting Witcher fans down.

The Witcher 4
Project Sirius Will Target A Much Broader Audience

In a new LinkedIn post, Damian Isla, Project Sirius’ ex-designer, had this to say.

It’s going to be an amazing game, one for the books

Damian worked on the project for the last 3 years as a design director before he departed the studio recently.

Moreover, the studio The Molasses Flood, which developed the game, was recently absorbed into CDPR. CDPR had only overseen the project previously, but now they’ll take over the title entirely.

Project Sirius did face a rocky development that even led to layoffs for its studio and a reboot of the game. However, the multiplayer title is now back on track and will be developed under a new framework.

CDPR Will Avoid Repeating The Same Mistakes They Made With Cyberpunk 2077 In Future Projects

Project Sirius will offer a unique experience within the Witcher universe as job listings revealed co-op and PvE elements for the game. Additionally, procedural generation was also teased, promising much more replayability and individualized interactions every time. 

Project Sirius will be developed on Unreal Engine 5, but a release date for the title hasn’t been set in stone yet. With a much more recent reboot, the game could still be years away and will potentially launch after Witcher 4, which is expected in 2027.
