CyberPunk 2077 Can Be A Bigger Success Than The Witcher 3 … – GamingBolt

Heres hoping they top themselves!

From going to making niche, cult hit cRPGs, to one of the biggest and most acclaimed AAA titles in history, CD Projekt RED has had a hell of a ride- and its not stopping any time soon, because right now, all hands on deck are working onCyberPunk 2077. CD Projekt has previously said thatCyberPunk will be its most ambitious outing till date- and speaking to Polish website Gazeta, CD Projekt RED co-founder Micha Kiciskhas stated yet again thatCyberPunk could go on to become an even bigger success thanThe Witcher 3.

I think that none of us expected such an unbelievable success of the game and CD Projekt itself. Were talking about a game, that has pretty much won every single award and accolade that you can in this industry. If were to expect something more, it would be even better sales of the game. My brother Adam (CD Projekts CEO) spoke about it at one of the investors conferences. The Witcher 3 was of course a gigantic commercial success, but in terms of sales theres still a lot of room for growth. CD Projekts ambition is to catch up with the largest developers in the world in that area.

And why willCyberPunk achieve greater success? Well, one reason could be its science fiction setting, inherently more appealing than a fantasy setting.

The Witcher was a fantastic material for a game, but it also constraint us. For starters, were working with a story set in a fantasy world. Secondary, were promoting a brand, that was mainly known in Central-Eastern Europe, and not in the west. Im confident, that Cyberpunk 2077 can be a much bigger commercial success than The Witcher 3. The futuristic world of the Cyberpunk is much closer to what we know from our daily lives. Its also much more popular, massive as you can tell by its presence in the films, books, comics and games. You have to remember, that fantasy is a much more niche topic.

I believe, that in case of Cyberpunk, CD Projekt can fight not only for prestigious awards and accolades, but also for a huge commercial success. Its hard to achieve both of those in our industry, but its perfectly doable, as shown by Rockstar and, in the past, Blizzard.

I wish CD Projekt RED all the luck in the world. WithThe Witcher 3, they have proven they are a talented bunch. Now lets see ifThe Witcher 3 was just a flash in the pan.
