The makers of The Witcher say thieves have stolen design documents for their next game, Cyberpunk 2077. And those thieves demanded a ransom—that the developers say they won’t pay.

In a tweet today, Polish developer CD Projekt Red said that it would not be acquiescing to a ransom demand laid out by “an unidentified individual or individuals” with access to early design documents for Cyberpunk 2077. “We will not be giving in to the demands,” the company said, “which might eventually lead to the files being published online.”

Damnnn. Hope those thieves get arrested and then sexually molested by a snake on drugs

Typical cyberpunk marketing trick.
Or fake news as it's called today.

Well, at least the context makes sense, since Cyberpunk is very related to the hacking culture!

Those damn Russians at it again!

Horrible people doing this man, cd project red are legends at creating and supporting amazing games, no reason except greed to do this to them.

I will make sure to avoid any spoilers.

They hack it and WikiLeaks will release it
