CD Projekt Red Boss 'Isn't Worried' About Delays for Next-Gen Consoles as RAM Prices Soar

CD Projekt Red's joint CEO, Michał Nowakowski, expressed no concerns about potential delays in next-gen consoles due to soaring RAM prices. Speaking with The Game Business, Nowakowski stated that consoles are necessary to attract casual and semi-casual gamers. He believes that consoles will weather any storm, regardless of pricing.

While the possibility of next-gen hardware delays is a rumor, Nowakowski is not very concerned by it. For him, the content is king, and as long as the content is good, players will find a way to access it. CDPR's dev team has always been eager for more power to showcase their best work, but they are realistic and prepared to adjust if the next-gen consoles are delayed.

The developer remains confident that consoles will stick around as long as gamers want to use them. CDPR has also shown support for indie developers and ensured physical goodies for fans of The Witcher 4, even if its release comes after PlayStation's game disc cutoff date.
