Multiplayer Witcher Game Could Be In Development, Leak Hints
A recent listing from CD Projekt Red's website hints that The Witcher might be getting its own multiplayer game soon. As of last March, CDPR had confirmed that a new saga of Witcher games was in development, though the company has since remained quiet. The developer hasn't delved much into multiplayer components, with the mainline Witcher series having remained exclusively single-player since CDPR's original 2007 title.
CD Projekt became a household name after 2015’s The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. The latest chapter in the saga of Geralt of Rivia was not only an exemplar of open-world games but also narrative-driven RPGs. The success of Witcher 3 would go on to spawn two massive DLC packs, and spin-off games like the very successful digital card game Gwent. After the troubled release of Cyberpunk 2077 and the acquisitions of studios Digital Scapes (now CD Projekt Red Vancouver) and Molasses Flood, rumors began to circulate of CD Projekt’s return to the popular Witcher series. This past March, CDPR laid those rumors to rest when it teased a new Witcher game in an announcement that crashed the official Witcher website.
