CD PROJEKT RED, the studio behind Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher games, has announced that it is planning to lay off 100 people—a number that would equate to roughly 9% of its entire team. The news was shared today by Adam Kiciński, CD PROJEKT's CEO, who explained that the company has to let some of its workers go because it is currently overstaffed. Kiciński has told affected team members to stay in touch even though they won't be part of CD PROJEKT RED anymore.

CDPR is likely winding down on Cyberpunk 2077 and its upcoming DLC. We know they are doing a sequel, but its early days. They won't need those extra people until later on in the game's development.
 
Yea I don't see this as an evil move. Though some outplacement to other studio's would be nice.

Alongside it comes a major overhaul of the base game, it's basically a 2.0 release on top of a new campaign. It definitely won't be bug free.
