In the conversation, Powel Sasko from CD Projekt also focused on the successor to “Cyberpunk 2077”, which apparently retains a large proportion of the experienced management team.
Experienced managers remain on the Cyberpunk team
After “Cyberpunk 2077” was completed and received the planned “Phantom Liberty” expansion, part of the team was shifted to the development of “The Witcher 4,” which CD Projekt is “working intensively” on, according to Sasko.
Fans don’t have to fear that “Cyberpunk” will be neglected. “Most of the managers and most of the directors who were involved in Cyberpunk and Phantom Liberty” would be involved in the new “Cyberpunk” – internally referred to as “Project Orion”. Some of the senior developers are on board, which Sasko justifies with the “needs of a project at a certain time.”
“Project Orion” is still in a “fairly early stage” of development and is therefore being driven forward by developers who are “well trained” through their work on “Cyberpunk 2077” and the expansion.
