Cyberpunk 2077’s disastrous release still has a negative impact on the CD Projekt Red front. The production, which entered the game world in December 2020, was criticized so much that some investors recently took the issue to court.

While mutual agreements were made with the parties, some details emerged. While the amount to be paid by the company will be 1.85 million dollars, it has been learned that the other party will be completely removed from the company. Because, among the information received in the agreement, the plaintiff group also approved the clause “was waiver of all claims against CD Projekt Red and the members of the Board of Directors”. However, the company, which throws the ball to the court, is also very pleased that the process will be completed.
