CD Projekt Red began early work on their next Cyberpunk game. The company plans to release this sequel around 2030. The team has almost ten years to build on what they learned from Cyberpunk 2077. Company leaders said during earnings calls that games usually take four to five years from start to finish. Game development timelines can change based on new technology and creative challenges.
About 96 workers focus on the new Cyberpunk project right across different departments. The Witcher 4 has 422 people working on it, making it the studio's largest project. This split lets CD Projekt Red develop both major games at the same time. More workers will move to Cyberpunk 2 as early planning ends. The studio wants to keep both games moving forward without delays.
The new game will not continue the story from Cyberpunk 2077 directly. Instead, it will expand the shared world with new city areas and characters. The team tests new graphics technology and smarter computer-controlled characters. They also work on online features that could connect players. Marketing for the game will probably start around 2028 or 2029.
