A judge has approved the $ 1.85 million deal between CD Projekt and some investors for the disastrous launch of Cyberpunk 2077.
A Californian judge has finally approved the $ 1.85 million settlement between CD Projekt and some of its investors, concerning the disastrous launch of Cyberpunk 2077 . The settlement for this amount was disclosed in December 2021, but District Judge Fernando M. Olguin ruled against the settlement in April 2022, saying the draft included much information not in the motion and not supported by statements or other documents . Over the next few weeks, the parties’ lawyers provided a new version of the settlement.
The lawsuit dates back to December 2020. It was brought soon after the launch of Cyberpunk 2077, when the game’s numerous problems emerged, especially those of the Xbox One and PS4 versions, which were described as “virtually unplayable” due to “the enormous number of bugs “. The lawsuit also focused on CD Projekt’s deceptive communication about the final quality of the game.
It should be noted that the agreement has not yet had its final approval, which should take place by June 1, 2023, after a further request from CD Projekt and the Rosen law firm, which represents the investors, made by April 28, 2023.
