The Witcher 4 “Polaris” Being Developed Using Unreal Engine 5 Could Lead to Stuttering Issues Improvements in All Titles Powered by the Engine

The Witcher 4, also known as the "Polaris" project, will be the first entry in the series to be powered by the Unreal Engine 5. While this was definitely disappointing to learn for a lot of fans due to the known stuttering issues of the engine, the move could lead to some improvements that could benefit all of the games powered by the ending.

According to the tech experts at Digital Foundry, if there is one development team that could solve the stuttering issues plaguing the engine, it is CD Projekt Red. Also, the team is well aware of them, as shown in a photo shared by Alex Battaglia in the video below taken during an Unreal Fest presentation by CD Projekt Red. As such, there's no doubt that the developer will try their best to solve the issues, and whatever they are able to come up with, it's extremely likely it will be integrated into the engine, thus improving every game powered by Unreal Engine 5.

Very little is currently known about The Witcher 4 "Polaris", other than the fact that it is the game in the works at CDPR in the most advanced state of development, and that it will mark the beginning of a new saga. Geralt of Rivia, however, will return to our screens at some point, as a remake of the first entry in the series is also in the works. Little is known about this remake as well, but it has been said that it will do away with parts of the original that are outdated and bad.
