Fool's Theory

The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered, which was released last week to exceptional critical acclaim, also helped lay the foundation for the upcoming new trilogy.

Polish studio Fool's Theory led the remaster, plus is co-developing the Songs of the Past expansion with CD Projekt for 2027 and the Witcher 1 remake for 2029 or later, and used the toolset created for the new saga.

These releases give CD Projekt something new to market during a long production cycle and help lay the groundwork for The Witcher 4 and all that comes after.

There are other new projects at different stages behind the scenes too.

It's best viewed as a potential seed for the next decade, along with a couple other unannounced projects whose scale and role remain undisclosed and may or may not turn into anything substantial.

For now, the company's upcoming success is all about making the most of The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2.

CD Projekt has seemingly done a good job working with partners, Fool's Theory in particular, which includes a bunch of ex-CD Projekt veterans, And Nowakowski describing the company's intended structure as, quote, three isolated teams with clear leadership, with clear vision, end quote, while acknowledging that CD Projekt cannot keep expanding beyond what it can supervise, sounds like a reasonable setup.

The best days may be ahead.
