CD Projekt Red Has Shared A Big Update On Cyberpunk 2077's Sequel, Which Might Even Have A Name Now

Summary
- CD Projekt has released an earnings update for shareholders.
- The sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 is referred to as Cyberpunk 2.
- Cyberpunk 2077's sequel has entered pre-production, according to the presentation.
As a publicly-traded company, CD Projekt is obliged to give shareholders regular updates on the progress of its projects. This means the studio regularly posts presentations and reports for shareholders and other stakeholders who are unable to attend meetings.
A recent earnings presentation outlined the commercial performance of the studio in the first quarter of 2025. There's a couple of neat statistics in there, such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt eclipsing 60 million sales.

The presentation also included an update on the progress of the unnamed sequel to Cyberpunk 2077. A single slide simply says, "Cyberpunk 2 has entered pre-production phase." There's a chance that the sequel will simply be called Cyberpunk 2, but there's also a chance that this could just be a project title used here for simplicity's sake.
We don't know a lot about Cyberpunk 2077's sequel. The majority of CD Projekt's resources are currently being allocated to The Witcher 4, which has entered full production.
CD Projekt is currently working on multiple projects, but we've seen from its past staff allocation strategies that the majority of developers are allocated to the next big project, with smaller teams left on pre-production for other projects. Cyberpunk 2, The Witcher 4 and a new IP, codenamed Hadar, are all currently being worked on at CDPR.
Cyberpunk 2, previously called Project Orion, is primarily in production at CD Projekt's new Boston studio, with additional support from Vancouver and Warsaw. The game is being directed by Pawel Sasko, who was a quest director on Cyberpunk 2077 before his promotion to associate game director.
The Witcher 4, which was revealed at last year's Game Awards, is not expected to release before 2027. It's unknown if CDPR's Boston studio intends to enter full production on Cyberpunk 2 before The Witcher 4 is released, or if the game will remain in pre-production in the coming years. If it's the latter, then we may not see Cyberpunk 2 before 2030.
