"CD Projekt Red's Plans for The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2 Production"

CD Projekt Red is preparing to start production on The Witcher 4, codenamed Polaris, with a target of 400 developers by mid-2024, while also planning to begin work on a Cyberpunk sequel later in the year. The new co-CEOs have emphasized that AI will not replace human developers, despite forming an internal team to investigate its potential uses in game production. The company aims to avoid negative press following Cyberpunk 2077's troubled release and is looking to hire more staff for its North American studio due to eased wage pressures.
