The studio, which also produces The Witcher games, says the files taken from CD Projekt Red are old “and largely unrepresentative” of the current version of Cyberpunk 2077, but are apparently sensitive or potentially revealing.
CD Projekt Red studio head Adam Badowski said earlier this year that development on the game was “quite advanced,” with several hundred people currently working on Cyberpunk 2077.
Early game concepts could be leaked publicly Developer CD Projekt Red said today that internal files belonging to the company, including “documents connected to early designs” for role-playing game Cyberpunk 2077, are being held for ransom by “an unidentified individual or individuals” and may be exposed publicly.
It’s not clear how those internal files made their way into the ransomers’ possession; CD Projekt Red doesn’t specify how they leaked.
