‘The Witcher’ will be remade with Unreal Engine 5

Going back to the beginning makes a lot of sense for CDPR. The Witcher was released in 2007, and although it earned positive reviews, it wasn’t until The Witcher 3 (and the Netflix program based on the source books) that the brand gained traction. It’s hardly a leap to think that gamers who discovered the series later might be interested in Geralt of Rivia’s early exploits.
