Polish developer CD Projekt Red just released the most-anticipated game of the year, making its top executives very rich. But the December 10 release of Cyberpunk 2077 soon became a disaster of Fyre Festival proportions. “I'm not in the position to advise anybody,” he told Forbes on the phone as Cyberpunk 2077 neared its crunch period in July. Such flaws in the production pipeline would eventually become disastrous for Cyberpunk 2077, but Kiciński left that for others to solve. CD Projekt Red reportedly intensified the crunch—including 6-day work weeks—to meet the final deadline.
