After the debacle of Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt says The Witcher 4 is already running on PC and consoles, promises ‘it’s going to run’ on all target platforms

Cyberpunk 2077 was initially unsuccessful, plagued by bugs and glitches, particularly on PlayStation 4, leading to its removal from the PlayStation Store by Sony. After being reinstated six months later, it came with a warning about ongoing issues. CD Projekt Red's co-CEO Michał Nowakowski noted that the studio's ambition to develop the game primarily for PC contributed to its rocky launch, as they underestimated the challenges of scaling it for consoles. Learning from this experience, CD Projekt Red is adopting a more cautious approach for The Witcher 4, ensuring smooth performance across all platforms and addressing any issues before proceeding. The targeted release for The Witcher 4 is set for 2028, with a focus on quality and stability.
