Developer CD Projekt Red has reaffirmed that fans of The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt will get a patch for the next generation PS5 and Xbox Series X in late 2021
The announcement was made via a strategy update video posted on the studio's YouTube channel There, co-CEO Adam Kiciński presented a roadmap of what fans and investors can expect from CD Projekt Red this year
Overall, the video below is thin on "The Witcher 3" details Fortunately, CD Projekt Red confirmed in a blog post last year that updates on next-gen consoles will include ray tracing support and faster loading times It is also likely that the resolution will be raised to 1440p or 4K and the frame rate will be increased
Apart from a next-gen patch scheduled for late 2021, The Witcher: Monster Slayer: Monster Slayer will be released later this year It is a mobile game similar to Pokémon Go, in which GPS data and augmented reality allow players to defeat monsters in The Witcher's world
A massive 12 patch with hundreds of fixes is planned for Cyberpunk 2077, and CD Projekt Red is planning more patches and updates, as well as free DLC and updates for next-generation consoles
After last year's rocky launch of Cyberpunk 2077, which led to class action lawsuits and refund issues, Kiciński reiterated CD Projekt Red's core values These include quality, passion, tolerance and fairness, independence, and a gamer-centric approach Commenters are cautiously optimistic Fans were burned by "Cyperpunk 2077," but given the studio's transparency and lingering goodwill from "The Witcher 3," there seems to be room for trust restoration and forgiveness
CD Projekt Red is restructuring its studio to allow for parallel development of AAA games Leaving aside the trivia about studio structure, ultimately CD Projekt Red is trying to undo the studio culture that led to the failed release of Cyberpunk 2077 This means better communication and more agile inter-game collaboration
CD Projekt Red's primary focus is to be a single-player, story-driven RPG studio The Witcher and Cyberpunk will be the pillars of the company, although they are willing to experiment with mobile derivatives like Monster Slayer and competitive card-battling games like Gwent
In short, CD Projekt Red will use its existing franchises to expand its user base Fans can expect more toys, figures, comics, anime, and TV shows An animated feature for "Cyberpunk: Edge Runner" is already in production on Netflix And, of course, fans are eagerly awaiting "The Witcher" Season 2 on Netflix
An exact date for the next-gen patch for "The Witcher 3" has not been revealed
