CD Projekt RED Has Plans to Release “Heretofore Unannounced Gaming Project” This Year

by

CD Projekt RED recently announced in its FY 2025 earnings report that it will launch a brand new game later this year. Social media user SynthPotato spotted the news, which also confirmed that the company is still actively working on its existing projects and intends to expand its development teams when necessary.

The Studio plans to spend the next few quarters finishing projects already in development and will also reveal a new game that hasn’t been announced yet. At the same time, they’ll continue to grow their development teams, adjusting how those teams are organized and how many people are on them to support working on multiple projects at once.

CD Projekt RED hasn‘t shared many specifics about their upcoming game, but rumors suggest they’re working on a new downloadable content expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. This expansion is expected to be a significant story moment, centering around the main character, Geralt.

An analyst suggested CD Projekt RED is planning to release their new DLC in September to avoid competing with the November 19th launch of Grand Theft Auto 6.

The analyst believes that CD Projekt Red will likely release The Witcher 3‘s DLC before November, and potentially around September, to avoid competing with the launch of the new GTA. They suggest September is a good time because it’s after the summer vacation period and coincides with people returning to school or regular routines. However, the release timing isn’t set in stone and could be pushed back a few months. (This information came from a machine translation.)

So, during the earnings call, they gave us a little update on what they’re working on. Apparently, Project Hadar is really starting to take shape! The developers are even building several different prototypes to figure out the best way the gameplay will actually feel. It’s cool to hear things are progressing and they’re experimenting to make it the best it can be.

During our earnings call, we shared an update on our third franchise, Hadar. Development is moving forward quickly, and the team has successfully built the core elements of this brand new game world. We’ve now established what makes Hadar unique, and created key features that will not only shape the game, but could also be used in future projects.

The team is currently working on the details of what will be in the game. They’re building several test versions and putting them directly into the Unreal Engine to see how different features and gameplay actually work in practice.

CD Projekt Red first announced Project Hadar in 2022, stating it was being created entirely in-house. Unlike their games Cyberpunk and The Witcher, this new project isn’t based on existing source material; it’s a completely original story.
