CD Projekt Red is working on a selection of new titles for gamers, but what does the renowned developer consider as its "most advanced" project.

For those that didn't know, CD Projekt is currently working on four new titles, all of which are named after stars. Firstly, there is Canis Majoris, a remake of The Witcher that is currently being developed at Polish studio Fool's Theory. Next is Orion, which is the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 that is being helmed by developers at the Boston studio. Next is Sirius, a Witcher spin-off game that is being developed at Molasses Flood in Boston.

Lastly, Polaris is a completely new Witcher game that is being helmed by the main CD Projekt studio in Warsaw, Poland. In a recent interview with Flow Games, associate game director Pawel Sasko said most of the titles are currently in their "early stages" and the new Witcher saga, which is slated to enter production sometime this year, is "the most advanced of all of those".

An indicator of Sasko's comments ringing true is CD Projekt Red's recent earnings report, which revealed Polaris having more employees working on it than any other project being developed under the CD Projekt banner.

As for when we will see something from the new Witcher game, I wouldn't expect to see anything for at least a couple of years, as CD Projekt Red learned its lesson from the unveiling/release of Cyberpunk 2077. The dystiopian RPG was originally unveiled in 2012 and then prematurely released in 2020 to the massive disappointment of fans complaining about performance problems. CD Projekt won't be making that mistake twice.
