Cyberpunk 2077 sequel director says CDPR may "never" win some fans back, but hopes future games like The Witcher 4 will: "That's unfortunately the price we have to pay"

Reflecting on the notoriously poor launch of Cyberpunk 2077, devs at CD Projekt Red have been talking about how they can regain fans' trust going forward, and it sounds like they largely want their next works to do the talking. 

Speaking to Eurogamer, CD Projekt joint CEO Michał Nowakowski doesn't mince words when it comes to admitting just how disastrous Cyberpunk 2077's launch was for the company, noting that the perception of it from before that fateful release is something "we've probably lost forever," even if "you can repair some things" to an extent.

Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty DLC was received far more positively than the base RPG initially was, so we'll just have to hope that CD Projekt Red can keep it up for those upcoming releases. We still don't know right now when we can expect the Cyberpunk sequel, new Witcher game, or totally fresh IP to release, but I'm sure that fans everywhere can agree that the devs should take
