CD Projekt Red, developers of The Witcher series, reaffirmed their commitment to focusing on core competencies after decades in the gaming industry. Chairman Marcin Iwinski emphasized the necessity of maintaining a sharp focus, admitting past attempts to diversify led to setbacks. Joint-CEO Adam Badowski reiterated that the company aims solely to develop AAA RPGs, particularly open-world narrative-driven titles. Although they faced temptations to explore outside their niche, Iwinski stressed the importance of not spreading the team too thin. Upcoming projects include sequels for The Witcher and Cyberpunk, reinforcing their commitment to established franchises.
We've learned that we have to be razor-sharp focused. We cannot do so many things we would love to do--we are tempted to do. We tried and it didn't work out.
We're gonna develop AAA RPG, open-world narrative-driven games and this is our, let's say, niche. So the focus is there.
If we spread ourselves too thin, we'll not deliver. Let's take a deep breath and come back to what we're doing.
The company also experimented with an augmented reality game called The Witcher: Monster Slayer, which shut down in 2023.
