Some days I wake up and remember that Witcher 4 will be on Unreal Engine 5👀 Reminder that what you have seen is a TECH DEMO of Witcher 4. UE shared this clip of tech demo in 2020 and there has been not a game that looks this good... on Unreal Engine 5. The scale of Witcher 4 has me worried about its performance on UE5, and as I hope for the next best detailed game after GTA6, I can't help but think it would be Intergalactic because Witcher 4 will likely cut corners for optimizations, given that it's not their in house engine.show more

Even with their in house engine, CDPR's games launch with major issues, some of which require specific mods to improve quality. I think they're not great with optimisation. I do hope to be wrong and that they learned their lessons but with what happened with TW3R on PS5.. idk

I think main reason of their migration was better testing across different platforms but UE comes with its own fair share of performance issues if not optimized well.

Wrong. UE5 IS CDPR’s new in house engine. They have been pouring a ton of development into it as part of their cooperative agreement with Epic.

Ahhh... I can't remember once that games have lived up to what we used to call "bullshots" in demos and screenshots. Not on single time. I don't think they are gonna start now 🫤

The only time they can look like that is the game is in fact a tech demo some how sold as a product 😅

Nice 😊 Besides that! Hey have you heard last news, COD WW2 and Mafia 3 are free in some PS store regions (UK FR DE and maybe others)

No I did not, that's great info!

Yeah, it could be a glitch for more than an hour, many game news accounts are posting about them

It’s not UE5 from other games, it’s gonna be newest version and heavily modified with Red Engine assets

It will be a disaster, they can't even launch their releases at a decent state on their own engine.

the sad real truth to them choosing ue5 is because the competence left the company and the current employees has no interest in learning that aspect of game development. The technical development. This is why they hire studios that has the old employees, such as fools theory.

It'll run at 792p upscaled to 4K on PS5 and 360p upscaled to 1080p on Xbox Series S lol

Witcher 4 will probably sadly be a broken mess

The games can look good but they run at 9fps or stutter every 30 seconds

After the cyberpunk 2077 broken mess disaster, we should wait for Witcher 4 to release

I am not worried about The Witcher 4 as CD Projekt Red aren't just developing the game in Unreal Engine 5 they are developing Unreal Engine 5 for The Witcher 4,5 & 6 and were Forged in the Fires of Fan Backlash while releasing the Broken Cyberpunk 2077

I know they're different types of games, but The Coalition just did a pretty good job with Gears. And given the disastrous launch of Cyberpunk, I think better performance near the top of the list of priorities. We'll just have to wait and see

I'm less worried about UE5 and more worried about CDPR
