CD Projekt Red has confirmed layoffs at Project Sirius, the multiplayer spin-off set in The Witcher universe. Nine employees have been let go, while another nine have been invited to apply for internal roles elsewhere in the company.
The studio said the cuts were part of a re-evaluation of the project's scope and commercial potential. No changes have been announced for other Witcher titles or the Cyberpunk 2077 franchise.
Gaming layoffs are often painted as a sign of industry decline, but here the numbers are small and the studio is offering internal transfers. The real test is whether Project Sirius survives this re-evaluation or gets shelved entirely. If the remaining team cannot deliver a workable prototype in the next year, the project may never see release.
