Cyberpunk 2077 Eclipses 35 Million Copies Sold, Work on Cyberpunk 2077 Sequel Continues to Scale Up

CD Projekt RED reported its latest financial results today with its third-quarter 2025 earnings report. The report included a couple of notable updates on the studio's ongoing projects and a significant update about the studio's most infamous release, Cyberpunk 2077.

After what no one will deny was an absolutely disastrous launch, true to its word and commitment to try and right its wrongs, CD Projekt RED has overhauled and patched Cyberpunk 2077 to the point where the game has now sold 35 million copies since it launched in December 2020.

This announcement comes almost exactly a year to the day after CD Projekt RED announced Cyberpunk 2077 had reached 30 million copies sold. Its continued success is certainly proof that the studio achieved its objective of making it accessible even to gamers who aren't overly fond of shooters.

CD Projekt RED also talked about The Witcher 4. Work on the return of CDPR's other major franchise has continued to be the company's main focus, with 447 developers all working on it. Meanwhile, the percentage of developers working on the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel continues to scale up, with 135 developers now spread out between the studio's Vancouver, Warsaw, and Boston branches, the latter of which was opened specifically to work on the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel.

Once The Witcher 4 (which officially went into its production phase in November 2024, as promised earlier in 2024 by CD Projekt RED) is out the door, we can expect to see more of the company move to working on Project Orion, which is the given code name for the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, which CDPR has also begun calling "Cyberpunk 2."

"We are very happy and satisfied with the fact that - despite the passage of time - Cyberpunk 2077 remains such a well performing title and continues to attract new players," said Michał Nowakowski, joint chief executive officer of CD Projekt RED in today's presentation. "Sales of the game have exceeded 35 million copies, which testifies to the franchise's enduring power and enables us to be even more audacious about charting its future."
