CD Project is a studio that loves ambitious games. Between Cyberpunk 2077 and the saga of The Witcherthe Polish team has made a good reputation among fans of RPGmost titles are available on computers and home consoles, even if the studio has already attempted the adventure on mobiles with The Witcher Battle Arena (the servers were shut down after a year), Gwent: The Witcher Card Game or The Witcher: Monster Slayer (discontinued in 2023).
CD Project is therefore not necessarily very comfortable with mobile games, but he is not abandoning these platforms. The Polish studio was organizing a meeting with investors recently, one of them asked the CEO delegate Michał Nowakowski if CD Project considered licensing its franchises to third-party studios to make mobile games. In short, ask another developer to create a game for iOS and Android. Here is the response from the delegated boss of CD Project :
The answer is pretty simple here. The answer is yes, we are considering such an approach. We were actually looking, through conversations, for opportunities like that. We don’t have anything to announce at this time, but when the time comes, we will.
As far as a one-off business model or otherwise related to such a potential partnership, we won’t comment on the details here, to be honest, and besides, there’s nothing in place that we’re talking about.
But there is no predefined economic model that we look at in this case, whether it’s one-time or shared profits. This is an other story. But when the time comes, we will definitely share information.
Of course, in these kinds of meetings, the question of money arises, but CD Project seems clear here, nothing concrete has been launched to lend its franchises to third-party studios with a view to developing video games for mobile. As mentioned above, the saga The Witcher has already had adventures on iOS and Android with more or less success, while Cyberpunk 2077 confined itself to PCs, PlayStation And Xbox for the moment. The Polish studio already has a lot to do with its own productions, calling on a third-party studio to port a license to mobiles and making a little money in the process remains the best solution.
While waiting to discover games The Witcher And Cyberpunk on iOS and Android, you can find Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition from €49.99 on Amazon, Cdiscount, there Fnac And GOG.com.
