“It’s mainly because we have Matrix demo preview created by Epic We asked ourselves if UE5 was ready to ship games like the ones we made… the answer was no, it wasn’t yet, and not even in the base version. ”
“But if we could Partner with Unreal And working on some of the specific aspects needed to make a game of similar size and scope…then it can really work. ”

“Our goal wasn’t really to create technology, but to tell stories. But then we realized that to tell stories the way we wanted to, we absolutely needed the right technology,” he added. “[Utilizzando l’Unreal Engine 5] We are not responsible for creating technology from scratch; Develop those customized little details This will ultimately make a big difference. ”
Finally, we’d like to point out that The Witcher 3 expansion wouldn’t be possible without a remastered version of the base game.
