Valve - the software giant that brings you Steam as well as the occasional game release - has fewer people working in the entire company than CD Projekt Red has working on The Witcher 4.
An antitrust lawsuit brought against Valve in 2021 (via The Verge) failed to fully redact a year-by-year payroll chart that states that, three years ago, Valve had a total of 336 employees. That suggests that Valve's headcount has stayed pretty stable for the past decade - PC Gamer notes that there were 360 employees in 2016 and 330 in 2013.
