Finally the Twitter thread lead to the final announcement, that CD Projekt Red’s new IP projekt has been given the codename of Hadar.

Hadar is a codename for a third, entirely distinct IP, created from scratch within CDPR. The project is in the earliest stages of the creative process, which means we are not developing any game yet, but working exclusively on the foundation for this new setting. pic.twitter.com/1LdoXSTniv

Each of these codenames comes from the name of a Star constellation. This likely means that the codenames having little to do with the actual projects themselves.
