"It covers not only licensing, but technical development of Unreal Engine 5, as well as potential future versions of Unreal Engine where relevant. We'll closely collaborate with Epic Games' developers with the primary goal being to help tailor the engine for open-world experiences."

No, it has DLC in development.

in fact, the article even says 'While this new Witcher game will utilize Unreal Engine 5, CD Projekt Red did say that REDengine is "still being used for the development of the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 expansion."'

It's pretty wild how much Cyberpunk has destroyed CDPR's reputation. Even reddit is reacting quite tepidly to the new Witcher announcement.

The main gaming subreddits were practically a Witcher 3 fansite for most of the late 10s. Heck, r/gamingcirclejerk's motto is "Gaming Circlejerk - Home of CD Projekt Red" and the description is "Do you guys remember The Witcher 3?" to poke fun at it.

Should we assume this will still focus on Geralt, or do we expect it to be Ciri now despite the canon being that women can't become witchers? Curious how this will go..
