CD Projekt Red clarifies Unreal showcase of Witcher 4 was tech demo, not gameplay
CD Projekt Red has emphasised that footage of The Witcher 4 showcased at State of Unreal 2025 was not gameplay.www.gamesindustry.biz
Yeah, that's why I'm emphasizing 'Tech Demo.' But let's be honest here, they wouldn't release that if they didn't want fans to have the expectation the final product will be around that ballpark.
'If it looks that good on a PS5, just how amazing would it look on PC with the modern hardware in 2027?'
Also it should be noted Witcher3 faced accusations of 'graphical downgrading' of the release date product in comparison to the gameplay trailers.
CDPR's controversies didn't start with CP2077 on its release date.
And I say all of this as someone who loves CDPR, Witcher3, and CP2077. I'm just reminding everyone who will read this to not get your expectations up too high.
I'm very sure Witcher4 will be a groundbreaking game....eventually.... though if it will be on Day1... let's hope CDPR learned the right lessons from their past mistakes and not over-emphasize the fact that CP2077 has sold 60 million copies.
