CD Projekt has negotiated a potential settlement with investors, and investors filed a class-action lawsuit against the company because Cyberpunk 2077.
According to court documents, if both parties agree to a settlement, the next step is to seek court approval (thanks to VGC).
The document read: “Once certain additional formal conditions are met, the court will issue a decision on whether to approve the settlement and allow its implementation.”
