Why would they go Epic exclusive when they have GOG?

Doubt it will be just on epic. Epic is paying devs based on a sale estimate they come up with for the period of time the game is exclusive on epic store. They'd have to shell out like 500 million for a game of this magnitude, or more. After Cyberpunk was the 3rd biggest pc game in history on steam and made so much money, not launching a Witcher game on steam would be too stupid to even comprehend.

Fantastic news! Finally they realised the should stick to Witcherverse games.
Tbh, though, I kinda liked their own engine. The graphics were always pretty good and never too heavy on my rig. With unreal I fear they will face problems unless they somehow "hybridize" them both...though fat chance of that happening.
Still good news!

Why new engine, I don't get it. Witcher 3 with mods looks amazing.
I have a bad feeling about this.

This will be a low risk cash cow. A Ubiesque game like Witcher 3 with a much smaller scope, 1/2 the size of Witcher 3. UE5 probably cheaper on all aspects. The Witcher franchise will sell itself so no need for any inovation.

Here's what I READ:
The Witcher... blah blah... Unreal Engine 5... blah blah... Epic Games... blah blah... Unreal Engine 5... blah blah... Epic Games... blah blah... Unreal Engine 5... blah blah... Cyberpunk 2077.
_
And here's what I UNDERSTAND:
The Witcher... blah blah... TIMMY... blah blah... TIMMY... blah blah... TIMMY... blah blah... TIMMY... blah blah... TIMMEH!!!!111... blah blah... Cyberpunk 2077.

UE is terrible, though. UE went from leading in PQ to drowning in ugly screen space effects. I’m really not sure which is worse at this point.
