Issues are going fairly good for CD Projekt proper now. The writer has simply shared its full monetary outcomes for 2024, and revealed that it simply recorded its greatest internet revenue for a yr during which it did not put out any main releases. Cyberpunk 2077 was the primary driver behind this, because it continues to assist maintain down the fort till The Witcher 4 arrives.

This information’s detailed in a recent press launch and presentation from the corporate during which it seems again on its monetary outcomes for the entire of 2024. There’s additionally a pleasant video starring CDPR CFO Piotr Nielubowicz that goes by means of the highlights.
