Part of the roadmap includes "several deep transformations", Kiciński said, which will help the studio make "quality games, on time and without crunch". Kiciński said the layoffs are a part of "refining the shape" of the company's teams as it works on its ambitious roadmap of projects, including a new trilogy of games in the Witcher series and the next Cyberpunk game codenamed Orion. The layoffs will affect "around 100 people", Kiciński wrote, which he said is about nine percent of the studio's entire headcount. The announcement was made by Adam Kiciński, president and CEO of CDPR, in a statement uploaded to the company's website.

The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red has announced yet another round of layoffs.
