Two new games set in the Witcher universe are being made by studios outside of CD Projekt Red.
The game codenamed Sirius is being developed with the help of CDPR, and will include multiplayer alongside the mainline single-player quests.
Canis Majoris is a “full-fledged” Witcher game separate from the new saga CDPR previously announced, developed with the help of former CDPR members.
CDPR also clarified that this previously announced game will be developed into an entirely new Witcher trilogy.
It will feature a new protagonist, which fans believe will be series favourite Ciri.
The new announcement revealed that the upcoming trilogy will also be from the RPG genre.
Cyberpunk 2077 will also be receiving a large-scale update currently codenamed Project Liberty.
On top of this, a new game is in development to turn Cyberpunk 2077 into a series.

It’s codenamed Orion but few details of the project were shared aside from the fact that it will expand the world of Cyberpunk 2077.
Finally, a whole new IP was announced, currently under the codename Hadar.
Hadar is not even in the pre-production phase yet, and is more an idea that CDPR is building on.
With this plan the company hopes to release and develop three separate franchises in order to keep the studio successful.
Aside from Sirius, CDPR also stated that it hopes to incorporate more multiplayer into its games moving forward.
This could mean that Orion and Hadar will also be developed with multiplayer in mind.
