AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
CD Projekt Red has provided a new development update on Cyberpunk 2, revealing a growing team size of around 135 developers and noting that Cyberpunk 2077 has surpassed 35 million copies sold.
CD Projekt Red has offered a fresh look behind the curtain for the upcoming Cyberpunk sequel, previously known internally as Project Orion. Alongside the studio's latest financial updates, the team confirmed that development is moving steadily forward while Cyberpunk 2077 continues to rake in impressive numbers, crossing the 35 million copies sold milestone. That kind of sustained financial success gives the studio a massive runway as it builds out the next chapter in the franchise, especially after the rocky road the original title had to navigate to reach its current status as a fan favorite and revenue powerhouse.
Studio numbers show that the team size for Cyberpunk 2 has grown to roughly 135 developers, up from 116 earlier in the year. While the game is still early in pre production and shares studio attention with the ongoing work on The Witcher 4, details are slowly starting to emerge from the developers and franchise creator Mike Pondsmith. Past interviews have hinted at major additions, including a second primary location described as a grittier, Chicago inspired dystopian counterweight to Night City.
For players and community members, these early updates offer a reassuring glimpse into the long term vision for the intellectual property. CD Projekt Red is clearly aiming to build trust and keep communication open following the lessons learned from past launches. As production ramps up and more creators begin discussing the trajectory of the franchise on streaming platforms and community hubs, this upcoming sequel is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated titles on the horizon for cross platform gamers.
