Lawsuit against CD Projekt Red:

A global investor rights law firm called Rosen Law has recently filed a class-action lawsuit against CD Projekt Red for Cyberpunk2077’s buggy launch. Rosen Law has filed the class-action lawsuit on behalf of the purchasers of securities of CD Projekt Red between January 16, 2020, and December 17, 2020. The lawsuit apparently aims to recover damages to investors under the federal securities law.

The main focus of the class action lawsuit is that CD Projekt Red supposedly made false/misleading statements or failed to disclose some information. The first point of the lawsuit states that Cyberpunk 2077 is literally unplayable on last-gen consoles because of massive amounts of bugs. The lawsuit also points to the fact that Sony removed Cyberpunk 2077 from the PSN store and offered a full refund for the game.

It also claims that CD Projekt Red suffered massive blows to it’s reputation. Because of all these reasons investors suffered financial damage after the game’s launch claims the lawsuit.
