After the debacle of Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt says The Witcher 4 is already running on PC and consoles, promises 'it's going to run' on all target platforms
Sure, it's a low bar, but after the Cyberpunk 2077 fiasco you can understand why CD Projekt Red would want to make the point.
CD Projekt Red has acknowledged the launch issues faced by Cyberpunk 2077 and assured that its upcoming game, The Witcher 4, will be designed to run smoothly on all target platforms, including PC and consoles. Co-CEO Michał Nowakowski explained that the studio's initial focus on pushing graphical boundaries on PC led to performance challenges on PlayStation 4, which resulted in the game being removed from the PlayStation Store.
Nowakowski emphasized that CD Projekt Red is taking a more cautious approach to The Witcher 4, addressing any platform-specific issues promptly rather than rushing through the development process. He stated that the game will launch simultaneously on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X, ensuring a consistent and optimized experience across all platforms. While The Witcher 4 does not currently have a release date, it is expected to debut in 2028.
