CD Projekt RED is giving Cyberpunk 2077 another go with the announcement of a new entry codenamed “Orion” that will be headed up by CD Projekt RED’s new Boston studio. That’s on top of four other new titles announced by the studio, including three new projects based on The Witcher franchise.

According to CD Projekt RED, “Orion” will “fully unleash the potential” of the Cyberpunk 2077 universe. Of course, the first Cyberpunk 2077 game is still a focus for the studio, what with the recently-announced “Phantom Liberty” expansion.

As for the new titles based on The Witcher, the first is codenamed “Sirius,” and will be developed by The Molasses Flood. The new game is set in the Witcher universe, but will differ from past productions in that it will target “a broader audience.” “Sirius” will also have a multiplayer component on top of a single-player experience.

The next is “Polaris”, which is an entirely new trilogy of games, and “further expands upon the open world storytelling known from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.” The games are positioned to be released “over a six-year period starting from the release of Polaris.”

Lastly there’s “Canis Majoris”, which will be created by an external studio “headed by experienced developers who have worked on earlier Witcher games.” It will be powered by the Unreal Engine 5 and the toolset that the team are creating for “Polaris”.

As for the fourth project, its codename is “Hader”, and will be an “entirely distinct IP” that began its conceptual stage last year. The new IP is being “incubated entirely within CD Projekt RED”, a first for the company. The team stresses that production hasn’t begun yet, but that they are “working on the foundation of this new setting.”
