This Is One Of The Most Profitable Video Game Makers You've Probably Never Heard Of: How It Made $120M In Net Profit Last Year
CD Projekt ADR (OTC:OTGLY), the maker of popular video games like Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher, reported net profits exceeding $120 million in its annual earnings for 2023.
《賽博朋克2077》和《巫師》等熱門視頻遊戲的製造商CD Projekt ADR（場外交易代碼：OTGLY）報告稱，其2023年的年收益淨利潤超過1.2億美元。
CFO Piotr Nielubowicz declared it as the company's second-best year ever. He attributed this success to the release of Phantom Liberty, 2023's Cyberpunk 2077's expansion pack.
首席財務官彼得·尼盧博維奇宣佈這是該公司有史以來第二好的一年。他將這一成功歸因於2023年的《賽博朋克2077》擴展包幻影自由的發佈。
Phantom Liberty had been purchased over 5 million times in 2023, according to IGN.
根據IGN的數據，幻影自由在2023年被購買了超過500萬次。
Nielubowicz lauded Phantom Liberty's impact, especially given the three-year gap since Cyberpunk 2077's debut, calling its sales "an excellent result."
Nielubowicz稱讚了幻影自由的影響力，特別是考慮到《賽博朋克2077》首次亮相以來的三年間隔，稱其銷量 “非常出色”。
However, it's worth noting that CD Projekt underwent a round of layoffs in summer 2023, reducing its workforce by around 9%. Nielubowicz described it as "an alignment of the scale and size of the team with the requirements of ongoing projects and the CD Projekt Group strategy."
但是，值得注意的是，CD Projekt在2023年夏季進行了一輪裁員，裁員人數約9％。Nielubowicz將其描述爲 “團隊的規模和規模與正在進行的項目的要求和CD Projekt集團的戰略保持一致。”
These layoffs spurred the creation of the Polish Gamedev Workers Union, reflecting broader concerns within the industry regarding job security.
這些裁員刺激了波蘭Gamedev工人工會的成立，反映了業內對就業保障的更廣泛擔憂。
Moving forward, CD Projekt is reallocating more resources towards the development of The Witcher 4: Polaris as progress continues steadily. Additionally, the company is mapping out plans for its next Cyberpunk installment, known internally as Orion, alongside a forthcoming live-action project set within the Cyberpunk universe.
展望未來，隨着進展的穩步推進，CD Projekt正在重新分配更多資源用於《巫師4：北極星》的開發。此外，該公司正在制定下一部《賽博朋克》（內部稱爲 Orion）的計劃，以及即將推出的以《賽博朋克》世界爲背景的真人項目。
