CD Projekt Reports Strong First-Half Results
CD Projekt reported an improvement in financial performance for the first half of 2026, supported by continued sales of games from its major franchises.
The Polish video game developer recorded consolidated revenue of PLN 435 million during the six-month period, representing a 23% increase compared with the same period a year earlier.
Consolidated net profit reached PLN 249 million, up 37% year over year.
Revenue Reaches PLN 435 Million
CD Projekt's first-half revenue increased as the company benefited from strong sales of titles connected with its Cyberpunk and The Witcher franchises.
The company reported net profitability of 57.2% for the first half of the year.
The results also underscore the importance of established intellectual property as CD Projekt continues to generate revenue from games with large global audiences.
Cyberpunk and The Witcher Support Performance
Sales from the Cyberpunk and The Witcher universes made an important contribution to the company's results.
Both franchises remain central to CD Projekt's announced product lineup, which includes new releases and additional content connected with its established properties.
The performance reflects how the company continues to generate revenue from games beyond their initial releases. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has sold more than 65 million copies, while sales across the series have surpassed 90 million copies, according to CD Projekt.
Licensing Becomes More Important
CD Projekt said licensing its intellectual property made a significant contribution to revenue during the first half of the year.
The company said licensing is progressively becoming more important as its brands gain wider recognition in global popular culture.
This gives CD Projekt another source of revenue from its intellectual property beyond direct video-game sales.
The Witcher 3 Remastered Release Set for September
CD Projekt is preparing to release a remastered edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on September 29, 2026.
The updated release will be available for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and, for the first time, as a native Nintendo Switch 2 release.
The Witcher franchise remains a key part of CD Projekt's long-term release strategy.

The Witcher 4 is one of CD Projekt's major planned future releases.
Its planned release window is 2028, following the scheduled 2026 release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered and the 2027 release of Songs of the Past.
CD Projekt is aiming for one large Witcher-themed release each year between 2026 and the launch of the fourth game in the series.
Strong Results Coincide With Further Development
The first-half results come as CD Projekt prepares several new releases tied to its established intellectual property.
The company is developing new Witcher content while continuing to generate revenue from games in the Cyberpunk and Witcher universes.
Licensing income was also a significant contributor to first-half revenue, according to the company.

The company identified game sales and licensing income as contributors to revenue, while its announced schedule includes releases in the Witcher universe in 2026, 2027 and 2028.
Cyberpunk 2077 has also surpassed 40 million copies sold, while its Phantom Liberty expansion has sold 15 million copies, according to CD Projekt.
