To celebrate the launch of The Witcher 3 Update Next Gen, CD Projekt has released the updated version of the Complete Edition booklet. In a passage of the volume, the Polish software house provides interesting advances on the scenario of Polaris, the first act of the New Witcher Saga.
In the tab that closes the new digital booklet with the description of the characters and the story of The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, CDPR opens a new window on the dimension of The Witcher Polaris to explain to fans of the role-playing series that “the adventure will continue”.
In addition to the already unveiled image of the medallion of the New Witcher Saga, CD Projekt RED points out that “the Continent still holds many secrets and incredible stories just waiting to be discovered”. According to what was reiterated by CDPR, therefore, The Witcher Polaris and, presumably, also the other chapters of the New Witcher Saga on Unreal Engine 5 will be set in the area known by all fans of the videogame and literary series of the Strigo like the Continent.
In addition to Northern Kingdoms and the Empire of Nilfgaardthe Continent also includes the kingdoms of Zerrikania, Haakland and the desert of Korath: it is therefore a truly enormous setting, as the Polish developers themselves explain by specifying that the Continent will also be the backdrop for The Witcher Sirius project by The Molasses Flood and, of course, the Remake of the first The Witcher entrusted to Fool’s Theory.
In recent weeks, the Narrative Director of CDPR Philip Weber has provided further details on the possible setting of The Witcher Polaris.
