Cyberpunk 2077: CDPR pays disappointed investors $ 1.85 million – lawsuit withdrawn

Cyberpunk 2077 brought several lawsuits against the developer studio CD Projekt RED.

Cyberpunk 2077-Development studio CD Projekt RED is said to have misled its own investors about the state of the game at the time of publication a year ago. In any case, the investors accused the studio of that and sued for it. Now the lawsuit is history because an out-of-court settlement was reached. CDPR pays plaintiffs a total of $ 1.85 million, off the hook.

Investors’ Cyberpunk 2077 lawsuit has been dropped for cash

This is what it’s about: When Cyberpunk was released in 2077, it was in dire straits, especially on PS4 and Xbox One. Of which the investors apparently did not know, which is why there has been a lawsuit. The allegation was fraud: The development studio had lied about the state of the game and the launch chaos had a negative impact on the value of the shares.

You’ll find more about it here:

Out-of-court settlement reached: Now reported VGCthat CD Projekt RED and the investors have come to an agreement. The developer studio only has to pay the plaintiffs the equivalent of 1.85 million US dollars, which corresponds to around 1.6 million euros. The investors then withdraw all lawsuits against the company and its management.

Probably good for CDPR: In view of the fact that Cyberpunk 2077 sold over 13.7 million times in the first month after launch alone and CDPR only made 563 million US dollars in the month of launch despite everything, the payment of 1.85 million dollars seems like a stick. As early as May it was said that four other complaints had been removed.
