To say Cyberpunk 2077‘s initial launch had a negative impact on the reputation of the previously reputable CD Projekt RED would be a bit of understatement. Prior to its release, gamers knew this Polish dev for some really big hits, but with the awful state their 2021 title was in at launch, it was no surprise that this wasn’t taken flippantly by players, particularly these on previous-gen {hardware}.

One of the largest points was the testing or lack thereof when it got here to wanting over the console variations for bugs and glitches. It obtained so dangerous that Sony even stepped in and never solely pulled Cyberpunk 2077 from PSN, but additionally refunded these unlucky sufficient to purchase the sport throughout its launch interval, one thing Sony doesn’t do fairly often.

Future entries in The Witcher, which has one other recreation within the works, a brand-new IP codenamed Hader, a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, and different tasks from the studio will apparently be extra vigilant in the case of testing on different platforms.

It appears CD Projekt RED is utilizing a brand new technique following the bombed launch.

“We test gameplay quality on every platform from the get-go, and do not focus only on the developers’ PC build. Of course, this makes early stages of the creation process a bit more tedious, but it also gives us greater control and confidence at later stages.”
