CD Projekt Red has announced that the next-gen version of The Witcher 3 has been postponed until "further notice,"but a recent investors call insists that the game isn't in any kind of development hell.
Earlier this week, an investors call was made where CD Projekt's senior vice president of business development Michał Nowakowski touched on the state of the next-gen version of The Witcher 3 (via PC Gamer).
"I've been looking at the headlines that popped up here and there over the internet, and I've seen one that really drew my attention, which is, 'Witcher 3 next-gen delayed indefinitely,' which sounds like the game is in some sort of development hell," Nowakowski said. "I want to state this is not the fact. There's been a lot of insinuations that we're going to launch, like, June next year or something like that. That's completely not the case."
In its latest financial report, CD Projekt announced Cyberpunk 2077 has sold over 18 million copies as of April 14, 2022.
The last figure shared was back in December 2020 when it was reported the game had surpassed 13 million copies sold worldwide. SuperData estimated that 10.2 million were digital units, and that the game grossed $609 million in digital sales as of December 31, 2020.
According to CDP, the first expansion for the game is on track for release next year. We knew at least one was in the works, and more are to come, but in the meantime, the team is still working on improving the game.
