CD Projekt Red Kickstarts Development of Cyberpunk 2077 Sequel

Phantom Liberty Expansion's Success Paves Way for Next Installment

CD Projekt Red has officially begun development on the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, codenamed Project Orion, with the team expressing excitement and promising it to be 'something special'.
The original Cyberpunk 2077 game, despite its problematic launch, has made a significant recovery with its Phantom Liberty expansion selling over 5 million copies.
The Phantom Liberty expansion has an impressive attach rate of approximately 23%, meaning almost one out of every four players who bought the base game went on to purchase Phantom Liberty.
The success of Phantom Liberty has been compared to the performance of The Witcher 3's DLC offerings, despite being released years after the base game.
CD Projekt Red's co-CEO, Michał Nowakowski, has stated that the success of Phantom Liberty proves that 'solid content that people are happy with is the way to go.'
