Cyberpunk 2077 lawsuit over launch woes settled for more than $1 million

The complaint, filed by two legal firms in Californian District Court on December 24, 2020, alleged that statements made by CD Projekt Red made about the game in the runup to its release in December 2020 were "materially false and misleading" because the company did not disclose that it "was virtually unplayable on the current-generation Xbox or Playstation systems due to an enormous number of bugs."
