Quick Details

• Project Sirius: An innovative take on the Witcher universe telling an unforgettable story. Developed by molasses flood
• Project Polaris: A new witcher trilogy. They plan to release 3 games within a 6 year timeline.
• Project Canis Majoris: Story driven single player open world game set within the Witcher universe(this is separate from project Sirius)
• Project Orion: A Cyberpunk 2077 sequel.
• Project Hadar: New standalone IP distinct from the Witcher and Cyberpunk universe, developed 100% internally.

New Witcher Content
The fact that they are developing another Witcher trilogy is not surprising in the least. The Witcher games have been extremely popular and sold very well. Also Netflix is pushing out new Witcher content, getting the brand in front of millions and millions of people. No doubt CD Projekt Red is looking to capitalize on that. One wonders how much Witcher content is too much.

Netflix getting a Witcher game?
I'm curious though about project Sirius being developed by molasses flood. We know that Netflix has made some moves recently to enter gaming. Considering we now know that CD Projekt red is developing another Witcher trilogy and then another story driven game in the Witcher universe, that like about "an innovative take" on the witcher universe stands out. Could this be some type of Netflix gaming release? That would actually make a lot of sense since we already know that we have a ton of traditional Witcher games headed to consoles in the future. Something to keep an eye on.

Cyberpunk sequel
Cyberpunk 2077 had its trouble at launch but still sold like crazy. From what I hear now the performance issues are all resolved on the latest consoles. They are definitely going to do well with the latest expansion so getting to work on full scale sequel now makes a ton of sense.

New Top Secret IP Being developed 100% internally
The information released so far about project Hadar would seem to indicate that the game is an original IP by CD Projekt Red but its only in the conceptual phases and handled by a small strike team. This would normally be the sort of news that generates the most intrigue but since its very very early stage I imagine we won't be hearing anything substantial about this project for at least 3 years. And that's if everything goes according to plan.
