CD Projekt Red Certain It Can Recapture Cyberpunk Success

With reinforcements from Super Earth's Ministry of Defense pushing back Automatons and Terminids in the liberation campaign, has introduced the LAS-99 Quasar Cannon. This Cannon stands out as a shoulder-mounted anti-tank Stratagem described as a tool that "

It can be a little difficult to imagine Cyberpunk 2077 being in a completely broken state looking at the game we have on our hands now, but that was the case just a little over three years ago. With constant updates, a fantastic new expansion in Phantom Liberty, and an ungodly amount of money, CD Projekt Red managed to turn one of the biggest launch disasters in gaming into one of the best RPGs the industry has ever seen.

CD Projekt Red's chief operating officer Piotr Nielubowicz has said that the studio's single-player games may never have microtransactions, but its inclusion in multiplayer projects hasn't been ruled out.

CD Projekt Red, the studio behind The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077, apparently has no intentions of implementing microtransactions in its single-player games.

CD Projekt Red is continuing to bring patches for Cyberpunk 2077 with some regularity, but with the focus moving to other projects, the team supporting the sci-fi RPG is down to a skeleton crew. The studio says this is plenty to handle the game's current needs.

Following CD Projekt RED's recent quarterly report, where we learned that The Witcher 4 (Polaris) is still in pre-production, a couple of executives were invited by the Polish financial site StockWatch to answer a few questions.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is seemingly a superb game, when it's not buggy or surprising its players with microtransactions.

CD Projekt Red's chief financial officer, Piotr Nielubowicz, has said that the company doesn't "see a place" for microtransactions in its single-player games.

Microtransactions have become an unavoidable reality in games in the modern context, especially with game development budgets continuing to balloon to ridiculous degrees, but even so, seeing in-game monetization in single-player experiences never quite sits right with the vast majority. We had a very recent example of that with Dragon’s Dogma 2, a game that, despite widespread acclaim, still drew plenty of backlash for its post-launch inclusion of microtransactions. Not all players in the industry see the value in such a strategy, however.

CD Projekt's chief financial officer, Piotr Nielubowicz, says the company does «not see a place for microtransactions in the case of single-player games».

Last week, Thing Trunk’s deck-building hack-and-slash title Book of Demons was available for free on GOG. Now, according to the consistently accurate dataminer billbil-kun, Hammerting will be the next offering from the popular storefront, apparently being free to claim for 72 hours starting March 29 at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET.

Cyberpunk 2077 will be available to play at no cost as part of a limited trial over the coming weekend, according to developer CD Projekt Red. The popular game will be free to play for a few hours on current generation consoles from Microsoft and Sony, but not for PC gamers. You will have access to the base Cyberpunk 2077 game — which will need to be downloaded in its entirety in order to access the trial. The Phantom Liberty expansion won't be part of the trial this weekend.
