Time flies... It's hard to believe that 20 years have passed since CD PROJEKT RED was founded. The last two decades have been filled with adventure, and we’re so proud to have created video games that players all around the world have enjoyed — not to mention having such a strong, supportive community that has been with us at every step!

Although our studio was established in February 2002, we’ve chosen to celebrate the anniversary today, July 1st, because on this exact date 20 years ago CD PROJEKT (at that time known as CD Projekt) announced its shift in focus to game development. It’s a special date that marks the beginning of our studio as we know it today. It’s where our journey into making RPGs began, and we think that’s definitely worth putting in the spotlight!

But today is not the only day we’re going to celebrate this occasion. It’s 20 years, after all! We’ve got a bunch of activities planned for the coming months, and we invite you — our awesome community — to join in the fun! Here’s the plan:

• For those hungry for knowledge, we’ve got CD PROJEKT RED trivia & facts coming at you every Friday!
  
• On Wednesdays, we’ll be taking trips down memory lanes with special streams devoted to our games.
  
• On Mondays & Thursdays, we’ve cooked up some special birthday Challenges for you — with prizes up for grabs, of course!
  
• And that’s not all! We have more to come.. But why spoil the surprise now?

And every day you can also visit our dedicated anniversary website: http://20yearsof.cdprojektred.com to celebrate the past twenty years by sharing your memories of our games with us! We have a Birthday Gallery where you can submit screenshots, photos, drawings or anything else you can come up with!

We can’t wait to see what you send us!

We’re happy to announce that the next installment in The Witcher series of video games is currently in development, kicking off a new saga for the franchise.



This is an exciting moment as we’re moving from REDengine to Unreal Engine 5, beginning a multi-year strategic partnership with Epic Games. It covers not only licensing, but technical development of Unreal Engine 5, as well as potential future versions of Unreal Engine, where relevant. We'll closely collaborate with Epic Games’ developers with the primary goal being to help tailor the engine for open-world experiences.

At this point, no further details regarding the game — such as a development time frame or release date — are available.

REDengine, the technology which powers Cyberpunk 2077, is still being used for the development of the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 expansion.

If you wondered how The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt plays on Steam Deck, you can rest easy! We're pleased to confirm that our game has been Verified for Steam Deck Compatibility.

Steam Deck users are able to enjoy Geralt's adventures to the fullest. If you already have a copy of the game in your Steam Library then it's ready to run on your new hardware.

We’re working closely with Valve on the compatibility and performance aspects of our games on the Steam Deck. The goal is to provide the best possible Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 experience on this platform, while keeping in mind its unique hardware characteristics.

Please note that the above pertains to our recent games — there is no plan to provide additional Steam Deck optimizations for our legacy titles (like The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director's Cut).

We're back with our third episode of "It's All about You" — Novigrad's Treasures. This time, the spotlight is once again on creations from the Continent! Want to be in one of the future episodes? Find out more on our website: https://cdprojektred.com/AAY

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released 6 years ago!

Time flies when you're surrounded by friends. Happy anniversary, everyone!

We’re working on the next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!

Developed to take advantage of the most powerful gaming hardware, the next-gen edition of the game will feature a range of visual and technical improvements — including ray tracing, HDR and faster loading times — across the base game, both expansions, and all extra content.

The next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will release as a standalone purchase, as well as a free update for everyone who already owns the game.

It’s hard to believe that it’s already been 5 years since Geralt of Rivia embarked on his last epic adventure. Your help in finding Ciri, fighting off the Wild Hunt and mastering gwent was invaluable, friends! Thank you, it wouldn't be the same without you!



To celebrate the 5th anniversary of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Marcin Przybyłowicz, the Music Director, invited Taylor Davis, Miracle of Sound, Malukah, Tina Guo, Łukasz Kapuściński, Alina Gingertail and Jasinka to recreate the main theme from the game!
