CD Projekt marks the 19th anniversary of its first Witcher RPG with a tribute to BioWare: 'Their support helped turn our vision into Geralt’s first interactive adventure'

Today, October 26, is the 19th anniversary of The Witcher, the groundbreaking RPG that introduced Geralt, and CD Projekt, to the world. To mark the moment, CD Projekt took to social to pay tribute to friends who made it all possible: BioWare.

CD Projekt joint CEO Michał Nowakowski spoke warmly of BioWare last week in the immediate aftermath of the studio's shocking closure, crediting it as "a massive part of CDPR history." The Witcher was built on BioWare's Aurora engine, which it created for Neverwinter Nights, but BioWare did more than just share technology: It also worked to help bring the upstart Polish RPG to much wider attention.

"19 years ago, an ambitious dream to bring an iconic book series into the world of video games came to life with the release of The Witcher. It was the start of an unforgettable path, which wouldn't have been possible without our friends at BioWare," CD Projekt wrote.

"From lending us their Aurora Engine and sharing their knowledge, to giving us a spot at their booth at E3, their support helped turn our vision into Geralt’s first interactive adventure. Thank you to everyone who has walked the Path with us from the very beginning. Happy 19th anniversary, witchers!"

It was the start of an unforgettable path, which wouldn't have been possible without our friends at BioWare.
