CD Projekt Red “Very Happy” With Cyberpunk 2077 Sales On Switch 2
CD Projekt Red has expressed satisfaction with the commercial performance of Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on Nintendo Switch 2, emphasizing that player happiness remains the studio’s primary concern. The game emerged as one of the standout titles for Switch 2’s 2025 launch, alongside Mario Kart World, and became a flagship open-world experience for the platform.
The success represents a significant turnaround for the franchise, which infamously suffered a troubled launch across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. However, through sustained post-launch development and continuous improvements, Cyberpunk 2077 has been substantially refined. By the time of its Switch 2 release, the title had evolved into one of the most impressive open-world games available on any platform.
The Switch 2 port’s success demonstrates both Nintendo’s new console attracting major AAA titles and CD Projekt Red’s continued commitment to rehabilitating the game’s reputation. The studio’s emphasis on player satisfaction rather than purely sales metrics reflects their strategy for long-term brand recovery following the original launch crisis, suggesting that sustained support and quality improvements can overcome even major initial setbacks.
