Henry Cavill Wants to Make a Video Game Using a Vague Google Tool
Henry Cavill, star of Superman and Netflix's The Witcher adaptation, is reportedly developing a video game using a Google tool called Googlebook. The claim, reported by Gamekult, rests on very few verifiable facts and raises serious questions about the marketing logic behind the announcement.
Cyberpunk 2077 Third-Person Mod: The Game-Changer for PC
CD Projekt RED locked Cyberpunk 2077 into first-person perspective — a hard break from The Witcher 3's external camera. The PC modding community just closed that gap with what looks like the most polished third-person mod for the game yet. Night City from the outside, with V in frame: a real alternative for everyone the subjective camera ever put off.
Geralt Crashes Diablo IV: The Crossover Nobody Saw Coming
Blizzard Entertainment and CD Projekt RED made it official at Gamescom 2026: Geralt of Rivia is invading Sanctuary via Diablo IV, while The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt joins the Battle.net catalog. Two franchises at peak visibility swapping marketing bandwidth. The question remains: what do players actually get out of it—and what does this deal reveal about the state of the market?
The Witcher: Major Release Every Year Through 2028
CD Projekt Red confirmed it during its latest financial results: The Witcher franchise will roll out major releases annually from 2026 to 2028. Three years, three events. For the Polish studio, it's a gamble on its industrial capacity and the staying power of a license far from exhausted. The real question isn't whether releases will be plentiful, but whether they'll measure up.
Cavill Defends Witcher Fans: Passion or Denial?
Henry Cavill speaks out to reframe how fans of The Witcher are perceived, calling their vehemence passion rather than toxicity. A sincere defense from an actor who left the Netflix series on bad terms with production—and who voices aloud what many think privately about the gap between the source material and its adaptation.
Gamescom 2026: The Witcher and Gears Set the Stage in Cologne
Gamescom 2026's opening conference takes place August 25 in Cologne. The Witcher and Gears of War are among the confirmed titles on the program, alongside other unannounced projects. This annual showcase has become Europe's premier industry event, capable of competing with American giants. What's expected tonight isn't so much a barrage of announcements as a signal: where CD Projekt and Xbox stand heading into late 2026.
Gamescom ONL 2026: The Witcher, Metro 2039, and Silent Hill Townfall Confirmed
Gamescom 2026's Opening Night Live shapes up as a packed affair: additional content for The Witcher, a confirmed appearance by Metro 2039, and fresh footage of Silent Hill Townfall headline the slate. This is no ordinary lineup—three franchises with heavyweight nostalgia and demanding fanbases, all on the same stage. The pressure on publishers is real, and managing expectations without disappointing audiences will be a high-wire act.
The Blood of Dawnwalker Borrows Its Combat from Guitar Hero
The combat system of The Blood of Dawnwalker, the Rebel Wolves RPG expected in early September, draws direct inspiration from Guitar Hero according to the game's director. A rhythm mechanic applied to action: the idea is surprising, potentially decisive. For a studio founded by former CD Projekt Red veterans that claims the legacy of The Witcher 3, this design choice reveals a clear ambition: not simply to reproduce a formula, but to reinvent it.
Project Sirius: Layoffs Hit The Witcher Multiplayer Spin-off
The Witcher multiplayer spin-off is hitting turbulence. Project Sirius team members have been caught in layoffs while CD Projekt Red juggles the Songs DLC and other projects tied to the franchise. A warning sign for a project that has shown little to the public, raising serious questions about the studio's ability to manage multiple fronts simultaneously.
The Witcher's Geralt Voice Actor Threatens Legal Action Against AI Platforms
Doug Cockle, the English-language voice of Geralt of Rivia since the original The Witcher, has publicly declared he would pursue legal action against any AI platforms using his voice without authorization, if he had the legal means to do so. A hardline stance that reflects a broader battle waged by voice actors against the unauthorized training of generative models — one that directly affects one of gaming's most voice-defined franchises.
Geralt Without Emotion: CD Projekt Red's Risky Gamble
Doug Cockle has voiced Geralt for over twenty years. In a recent interview, he reveals that CD Projekt Red initially asked him to play the witcher as a character completely devoid of emotion. A directive that sheds singular light on the construction of one of gaming's most recognizable characters—and says something precise about how a studio can stumble, then correct course, to create an icon.
CD Projekt Red Absorbs CD Projekt: Rebrand or Real Signal?
CD Projekt will cease to exist as a separate entity and merge entirely into CD Projekt Red. A name change that coincides with news of a new Witcher DLC featuring Geralt. At its core, this reorganization reveals something precise about the direction the group intends for its communication and brand identity—and perhaps about where The Witcher 4 will sit in the studio's next decade.
