Yesterday's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:State of Unreal 2025 live stream saw 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:CD Projekt Red unveil more of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Witcher 4 and its features in a new tech demo – one that game director Sebastian Kalemba now clarifies is n🙈ot a demo of the actual RP🦄G itself.

The tech demo left fans of The Witcher series in a chokehold, blown away by the upcoming game's stunning 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new setting in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:never-before-seen kingdom of Kovir and its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:hyper-realistic horse anatomy. But acco✨rding to Kalemba, it wasn't exactly an entirely accurate showcase of the RPG as it'll be when it releases, but rather a deep dive into the impressive Unreal Engine 5 technology that's powering The Witcher 4.

following the stream. "This demo is the direct result of the strategic partnership we announced back in 2022 between 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:CD Projekt Red and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Epic Games," writes the lead, going on to describe the studio's work with Epic to enhance the Unreal Engine's toolset. "Since the♕n, we've been working closely together to develop new tools and enhance existing features in Unreal Engine 5."

That's where yesterday's State of Unreal stream comes in – as a look into the "ambition" CD Projekt Red has for the game, rather than the actual final product in action. "The tech ꦍdemo, running on PlayStation 5 at 60 frames per second," writes Kalemba, "showcases both our ambition for the g✨ame and the in-engine capabilities powering The Witcher 4." The director then stresses again that the tech demo is just that.

"One super important thing to remember: this isn't a demo of the g🥀ame itself, but rather a showcase of the engine and its capabilities," concludes Kal♒emba. "It's an early look and demonstration of what's possible at this stage of development, thanks to everyone's joint efforts."

In a follow-up , he also explains that, while ꧅the demo ran on a PlayStation 5, the technology "works across all platforms the gam꧅e will launch on."

Despite knowing the tech demo was a quick peek into what the Unreal Engine can do myself, I can't help but be all the more excited for the yet-to-arrive RPG – I mean, just look at those 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new Witcher 4 screenshots shared yesterday.

Need even more to look forward to yourself? Here are other 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games coming this year and beyond.
