The Witcher and The Witcher 2 PS4 not in the pipeline, says CD Projekt Red

The lead producer on The Witcher franchise has said there are no plans to release an enhanced version of The Witcher and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Speaking during an interview with GameZone (via GamePur), Piotr Krzywonosiuk made it clear that the team is entirely focused on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for the time being, and after that, CyberPunk 2077.

"All of our focus is on [The Witcher 3] Wild Hunt,” said Krzywonosiuk. "And then we have some other things going on, one of them being Cyberpunk. So I don’t think it’s in the plans."

The Witcher 3 is scheduled to ship in February 2015 for PS4, PC, and Xbox One. The game is set to be the final chapter in Geralt story arc, and takes place in a lush, fantasy landscape that is around 20 per cent larger than that of The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim’s game world.

Following its appearance at E3 last week, Wild Hunt impressed us so much that it scooped our reward for Best RPG, which you can read here.
