    I don’t suspect it will, but they got the better adaptation. I love Witcher more than Cyberpunk by a wide margin, but holy shit is Edgerunners pure gold, whereas Netflix Witcher on the other hand… Just a real waste of Henry Cavill

      Different production approach, AFAIK

      Didn’t the Witcher Netflix series entirely bypass CDPR, going entirely by the novel as the source material?

        It was sorta supposed to be based off the books, not the games, but they made a whole bunch of… choices

        But it doesn’t really matter anyway. The series’ will still have those adaptations under their belts, and The Witcher did not impress many who watched it. Haven’t heard a single bad thing about Edgerunners, and it’s honestly way better than the game IMO

          It impressed a lot of people when it first came out. Now it’s just total shitshow tho.
