Cyberpunk maker CD Projekt sued by investor over botched launch
Citiraj:
CD Projekt SA, the Polish video-game publisher of Cyberpunk 2077, was sued by an investor who claims the company misled him about the potential of the error-plagued game whose botched release this month caused shares to dive. Andrew Trampe sued Thursday in federal court in Los Angeles and seeks to represent other investors who bought the company’s securities. CD Projekt failed to disclose that Cyberpunk 2077 was “virtually unplayable on the current-generation Xbox or Playstation systems due to an enormous number of bugs,” according to the complaint. As a result, Sony Corp. removed Cyberpunk 2077 from the Playstation store, and Sony, Microsoft Corp. and the company were forced to offer full refunds for the game, according to the complaint.

The Polish studio said it sold more than 13 million copies of the game by Dec. 20, a figure which factors in the number of refund requests the company has received. The update doesn’t include information about the scale of refunds themselves, just providing the net sales number. The 13 million copies of Cyberpunk represents the estimated volume of retail sales across all hardware platforms, factoring in returns submitted by retail clients in brick-and-mortar as well as digital storefronts.
