CD Projekt Red says putting Cyberpunk on cartridge was “The right thing to do”


Jan Rosner, the VP of business development at CD Projekt Red, has been chatting about Cyberpunk 2077 on the Nintendo Switch 2. One thing that you all will have noticed is the amount of third party developers taking the admittedly cheap option and making their games Key-Cards. Rosner said in interview that the decision to have Cyberpunk on a cartridge was an easy one, as they simply felt it was the right thing to do.

“It’s not a matter of getting away with something,” Rosner argues. “Nintendo at physical retail is still strong, and retail is, in general, not going anywhere. I don’t think we’ll soon experience a reality where we’re just having all games digital.

“But again, it’s especially important for the Nintendo audience. We maybe could have got away with it, but is there a point? The right thing to do was to have it out on the cartridge with a plug and play experience.”

In advice to other studios, he adds: “Do not underestimate the physical edition. It’s not going anywhere and Nintendo players are very appreciative of physical editions that are done right.”
