ABOUT THE GAME

The Witcher (Polish: Wiedźmin pronounced [ˈvʲɛd͡ʑmʲin]) is a 2007 action role-playing game developed by CD Projekt Red for Windows and Mac OS X. It was based on the fantasy novel series The Witcher by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. The game's story takes place after the events of the main saga. The Witcher received positive reviews from critics. A console version, The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf, was scheduled for release in 2009 using an entirely new engine and combat system. This was suspended as a result of payment problems with console developers Widescreen Games. A sequel, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, was released in 2011. The third installment, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt released in 2015 and the fourth, The Witcher 4 is planned to release in 2028. A remake of The Witcher was announced in October 2022, which was formerly first teased under the codename "Canis Majoris". Entitled The Witcher Remake, it will be developed using Unreal Engine 5, the same engine in use for the planned second trilogy. Fool's Theory will mainly develop the remake with full creative supervision from The Witcher series staff and CD Projekt Red.
