"I believe I can say it'll be an excellent entry point for many players, without forgetting the long-time fans who still wish to follow Geralt's adventures," says CDPR's Sebastian Kalemba.
In a new RED Streams episode tomorrow, CDPR will reveal details on the upcoming Update 2.1, which will arrive with the Ultimate Edition.
However, CD Projekt says the project is "going to be developed or moved in the direction next year."
CD Projekt RED is slowly ramping up production on the next Witcher title, with almost half the studio now working on the game.
CD Projekt estimates a 20 percent attachment ratio for the acclaimed expansion, available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC.
With Cyberpunk 2077 having completed its redemption arc, CDPR senior writer Magda Zych speaks with GamingBolt about the game's journey and what the future might hold for the property.
PS5 and PC players who purchase the Ultimate Edition physically can download the expansion with a digital code included in the box.
Bundling the base game, Phantom Liberty and all updates, it will be available physically and digitally for current-gen platforms.
"Any talented actor who will help us tell our stories the way we imagined them and at the same time who is able to help us reach new audiences from among their fans is a great opportunity for us," say...
"I think these kinds of stories can take place anywhere that uber-capitalism develops, causing the collapse of societies," says CD Projekt RED's Magda Zych.
It will allow players to "create your own experiences" by "making something completely new or editing existing quests and content."
Quest director Pawel Sasko says working with Epic Games is "a challenge" but "also an honor" and something "we can also learn from."
"We did consider a couple of other scenarios. But none were a continuation of the main game story," says narrative director Igor Sarzyński.
The update, announced earlier this month, brings fixes for several missions, as well as some gameplay balance changes to Cyberpunk 2077.
The upcoming update also fixes bugs that caused cyberware to downgrade to Tier 1 and issues with skill progression passives.
Of the two massive first person RPGs, which one comes out on top?
The expansion is currently available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, and has sold three million copies in its first week.
The developer has previously revealed that the base game's budget was around $316 million.
CD Projekt RED confirms its four flagship releases so far have sold over 100 million units put together.
But quest director Paweł Sasko feels that "the first-person perspective is the main characteristic for Cyberpunk."
