As CD Projekt Red announced three Witcher games, the details started to come along. One of the games called Project Sirius is said to be a more casual type of game rather than address hardcore RPG fans. The explanation was made by business development SVP Michal Nowakowski in a Q&A session after the financial report.
Game’s description says that Project Sirius will offer “multiplayer gameplay on top of a single-player experience including a campaign with quests and a story”. Nowakowski explained that they actually thought about making a mobile game, but they rather wanted to reach broader demographics. They also want to catch the potential players who watched the TV show but not entirely into playing dark-themed hardcore RPG games.
On top of that, Project Polaris is said to be a continuation of the core series in contrast to the Project Sirius. In case you want to have a true Witcher game with all great elements of it, you might want to focus on that game. A couple words are also spoken about the Project Canis Majoris, which will be a AAA standalone project. But Nowakowski ends his words by saying that Project Sirius is an ambitious project which is just different than what we used to see in Witcher series.
