CD Projekt Red’s Witcher multiplayer game, known internally as Project Sirius, has suffered another round of layoffs.
According to a new report from Kotaku, nine people were let go from the Project Sirius team, with a further nine moved to other projects within the studio as part of a broader shift in development strategy.
CD Projekt Red had not responded to press requests for comment at the time of writing.
Project Sirius was announced in October 2022 as a co-op and single-player Witcher spin-off developed by The Molasses Flood, the Boston studio CDPR acquired in 2021. The project was rescoped in 2023 alongside a round of 29 layoffs. The Molasses Flood was fully absorbed into CDPR proper in April 2025.
The news comes as Supermassive Games similarly announced a third round of layoffs earlier today, potentially impacting up to 75 positions.
