A new report from Bloomberg, comprised of several interviews from developers (who requested anonymity to protect their careers), details the various issues plaguing the development process of Cyberpunk 2077 up until its troubled launch.

The studio is currently facing two possible lawsuits: the New York Times reported that the studio behind Cyberpunk 2077 could be facing a lawsuit from a regulatory filing from Warsaw, Poland.

This same RPG has seen its share of other controversies even before launch with reports of transphobia, and crunch culture, as well as the studio also refusing to share information about the game’s accessibility.

According to a new report from the Bloomberg, executives at CD Projekt took responsibility for the buggy release of Cyberpunk 2077 and told staff that they will receive their full bonuses no matter how the game is reviewed.

A report released by Bloomberg found that the game’s glitches and rocky launch have cost the founders of CD Projekt Red over $1 billion.
