He hopes The Witcher 4 will serve as an opportunity to rebuild that trust, though notes the redemption arc may not be complete. Despite Cyberpunk 2077 eventually surpassing The Witcher 3 as CDPR's top-performing title, the studio views its reputation as its most important asset. CDPR currently has over 600 developers working on The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2, with The Witcher 4 not expected before 2027. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
