playing The Witcher 3 which is an amazing AAA open world game, I'm sure most of you know it or have played it I've been thinking is it possible to create such a game by a common person like me? because games of this quality that are AAA are created by big companies but nowadays can't I create something like this myself on my own merits? I would love to know more about creating my own game that is AAA of the quality of The Witcher 3. It seems to me that it would be more than a dream come true. Does anyone know if this is possible and how to do it?
Creating a game on the level of
The Witcher 3 solo might sound impossible — and in terms of matching its full scope, budget, and polish, it kind of is. That game was made by hundreds of developers over several years with a massive budget. But here’s the good news: with today’s tools, a solo developer
can create a smaller, inspired version of that dream.
Using engines like
Unreal Engine 5 or
Unity, leveraging
pre-made assets, and tapping into
AI tools and free tutorials, you can absolutely build a
story-driven open world RPG — just on a smaller, more manageable scale. Focus on what makes
The Witcher 3 special to you (rich story, choices, exploration), and build your unique vision around that.
It’s definitely possible to create a AAA-style game like The Witcher 3, but you need a massive team, budget, and years of development. Indie devs can aim for smaller-scale RPGs with deep storytelling and smart mechanics. Interestingly, I’ve seen platforms like

Start small. Dream big. Keep going.
