On June 3, we finally got to see The Witcher 4 up close, albeit in the form of a vertical slice and a tech demo that demonstrates its use of the latest Unreal Engine 5. What CDPR presented was some of the most awesome and most advanced gameplay to date—but given past experiences, I'd rather be cautious than optimistic.
During State of the Unreal, CD Projekt Red gave a live presentation of The Witcher 4's technical capabilities, utilizing the latest and greatest version of Unreal Engine 5 to demonstrate just how far we've come. From realistic movement, physics, environments, simulated LOD that looks great from any distance, and some of the most interactive and dynamic NPCs ever shown on screen, CDPR certainly is going all out on this title.
