And, just to warn you, they all have quite corny codenames at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of The Witcher franchise, CD Projekt has announced that five different games are currently in the works: on top of the already-announced <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/the-witcher-4-release-date\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">trilogy of Witcher games<\/a> from CD Projekt Red (the first of which is codenamed Project Polaris), there is also Project Sirius (a separate game developed by The Molasses Flood) and Project Canis Majoris (another separate game, developed by a \u201cthird party studio led by ex-Witcher veterans\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>Those two Witcher games that fall outside the main new trilogy also got little descriptions today. Project Sirius is said to be \u201can innovative take on The Witcher universe telling an unforgettable story for existing Witcher fans and new audiences\u201d, while Project Canis Majoris is described as a \u201cstory-driven, single player open-world RPG set within The Witcher universe\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Over in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe, CD Projekt revealed its plans beyond the upcoming <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/cyberpunk-2077-phantom-liberty-dlc\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Phantom Liberty DLC<\/a> for the original game. Today\u2019s announcements confirmed that a full sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 is in the works: it is codenamed Project Orion, and is described as a \u201cCyberpunk 2077 sequel that will prove the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe\u201d.<\/p> <p>And on top of that, there is also Project Hadar, which CD Projekt is billing as its third major intellectual property. No details were revealed, beyond the fact that it is still in the conceptual phase and will be developed 100% internally.<\/p>\n<p>Confused by all the codenames? You\u2019re not the only one, don\u2019t worry. The graphic below might help you wrap your head around exactly what CD Projekt is working on at the moment.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;\" data-dnt=\"&quot;true&quot;\"><p lang=\"&quot;zxx&quot;\" dir=\"&quot;ltr&quot;\"><a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/t.co\/yrIj5A8nC1&quot;\">pic.twitter.com\/yrIj5A8nC1<\/a><\/p>\u2014 CD PROJEKT IR (@CDPROJEKTRED_IR) <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/CDPROJEKTRED_IR\/status\/1577317074778587138?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&quot;\">October 4, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async=\"\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;\" charset=\"&quot;utf-8&quot;\"\/><p>Clearly, it is a busy and productive time over at CD Projekt, and it will be interesting to watch along as these products gradually develop over the years to come.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s announcements also mentioned \u201cintroducing multiplayer to most of our new games to enrich the single-player experience\u201d, which certainly tallies up with general trends in the gaming world right now.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, \u201cexpanding into TV and film\u201d was mentioned as a going concern \u2013 this makes sense considering the recent success of <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/edgerunners-cyberpunk-2077-connect-to-the-cyberpunk-2077-connections\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Cyberpunk Edgerunners<\/a> on Netflix (not to mention The Witcher series on Netflix, which is technically based on the books, but can\u2019t have hurt the games\u2019 sales).<\/p>\n<p>Mobile games were mentioned, too, with the possibility of \u201cexternal partners\u201d helping to deliver them.
