New Witcher spinoff game was vetted "by multiple loremasters, writers and producers" at CD Projekt Red, devs say, so they couldn't get away with everything: "Hordes of zombie witchers was considered a step too far"

The Witcher 4.

The developers behind The Witcher spinoff game Reigns: The Witcher may shyly tell GamesRadar+ it's only a "fan-fiction simulator," but, crucially, it's fanfiction that IP holder CD Projekt Red approved.

Reigns narrative designer Oscar Harrington-Shaw and design director Francois Alliot explain in their joint interview with GamesRadar+, saying CD Projekt Red devs have "been extremely generous with their time. Every scenario you face in the game has been read by multiple loremasters, writers and producers on their end to ensure that all of the content is in keeping with the tone and lore of the Witcher universe."
