The Witcher 4 dev shares concern over meeting expectations set by The Witcher 3

CD Projekt Red's upcoming release The Witcher 4 is facing high expectations, and the studio acknowledges the pressure of following up one of the most critically acclaimed RPGs of all time. In a recent interview with GamesRadar+, narrative director Philipp Weber admitted that the development team is aware of online discussions questioning how the next game will match the success of The Witcher 3. Weber responded to this by saying, 'I'm like 'yeah, how are we going to do that?'' He added that while expectations are high, the team remains committed to the creative principles that guided the previous title. 'The way we want to do justice to the legacy of The Witcher 3 is to take the philosophy we had during The Witcher 3 – how to make a game, how to really care about these things, how to tell stories – and keep that philosophy.' He also explained that the goal isn't to replicate the previous game, but to create a new experience that honours its foundation. 'This is supposed to feel like a true sequel, not just redoing what we did before,' Weber noted. Although the game is still in early development, it has been confirmed that The Witcher 4 is set in Kovir and will use Unreal Engine 5. CD Projekt Red has not yet announced a release date.

CD Projekt Red and Epic Games have unveiled a new technology demonstration for The Witcher 4, offering an early look at the game's graphical fidelity and open-world design powered by Unreal Engine 5. Presented during the State of Unreal keynote at Unreal Fest 2025 in Orlando, the demo follows protagonist Ciri and her horse Kelpie exploring the newly introduced region of Kovir, a location not previously seen in the Witcher series. Below is the full video of the event. Although not actual gameplay footage, the tech demo highlights several advanced Unreal Engine technologies designed to elevate realism and performance. Nanite foliage technology renders individual leaves and branches on trees with dynamic wind effects, while chaos physics simulates natural movements of cloth and muscle, exemplified by Ciri's cape and Kelpie's musculature. Character motion matching ensures fluid interaction between Ciri and Kelpie, showing realistic weight shifts and movement synchronization.
