It's beenThe Witcher 2 directly toThe Witcher 3 in parallel withCyberpunk and then, later onTW3 base of operations game, straight onto 2 large expansions:Hearts of Rock andBlood and Wine. To realize our ambitions regardingCyberpunk 2077nosotros demand to scale the size of the team working on information technology which means from 300+ to 500+", Mamais said.

CD Projekt Red currently consists of two studios – the Warsaw and a Kraków-based studio. The later will play a crucial part in CD Projekt Red's expansion according to Mamais, and will hopefully grow to a studio with its own identity, which eventually will give ascension to a new AAA championship.

"Kraków volition play a critical role in that expansion and the intention is to grow that studio from 30 now to 100+ in the side by side yr (representing most 20% of the dev team on CP). Kraków is already planned to work on some key areas ofCyberpunk. But it'due south office of the goal to build a studio with its ain identity and to requite the Kraków team buying. Thereafter in Kraków it will exist more and more growth and a new independent full AAA game conceived, pitched, and developed in Kraków", said the future head of CD Projekt Red's Kraków studio.
