The sequel to Cyberpunk 2077
Moving on to ‘Cyberpunk 2077’, the studio announces ‘Project Orion‘, the code name of his futuristic RPG to be developed by CD Projekt Red North America (with the opening of a new studio in Boston). The project will “demonstrate the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe,” they say of the company, but for that they need a lot of manpower. Therefore, “we are creating a new team in Boston which, together with the expanding team in Vancouver, will form our new studio: CD PROJEKT RED North America.”
A new IP in the design phase
But CD Projekt RED does not close its sights on known licenses and the Polish developer himself would rework on the creation of an original IP.
