On July 1st, 2022, CD PROJEKT RED celebrates its 20th anniversary, marking two decades since the studio entered the video game development scene and began work on the first entry into The Witcher series of games.

After seeing success in the realms of video game distribution and localization, CD PROJEKT turned its attention to the development of its own game which led to the creation of CD PROJEKT RED, a video game development studio, and official announcement of that fact on July 1st, 2002.

In the twenty years since, CD PROJEKT RED has become a global industry name. The Witcher series of games — highlighted by 2015’s critically acclaimed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — has sold over 65 million copies, with development on an all new mainline The Witcher game having recently been announced, as well. Cyberpunk 2077, the studio’s latest release, has also become a globally recognized franchise, spawning its own anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, created in collaboration with Studio Trigger and premiering on Netflix in September 2022. Currently CDPR is also working on the expansion for the game, to be released in 2023.

Looking back on the past 20 years, Head of Studio Adam Badowski said:

When we started CD PROJEKT RED, we didn’t know what you can and can’t do in the video game industry. We were rebels from the get-go, and we had to learn everything ourselves. That gave us the freedom to develop our games our way, and that distinct and personal approach has formed the core of our DNA — which you can see has shaped our games. These last twenty years have been exciting and fruitful for us, unpredictably so, and we are extremely proud of our achievements and the fact that we can constantly count on the support of our community. That in particular is something we all cherish here, and it is with this positivity and optimism we head into our twenty-first year and beyond.

The studio is focusing much of its anniversary celebrations around its passionate community. CD PROJEKT RED has held a close relationship with players since day one, and it is thanks to their support over the years that the studio is where it is today. Gamers have always been at the core of CDPR’s work and mission statement, and the recently announced 20th anniversary celebrations are the studio’s way of sharing this special occasion with its equally special community.

To that end, the studio has launched its own 20th anniversary website which invites community members to share their own memories of CD PROJEKT RED and its games via photographs, screenshots, artwork — and more. Gamers can upload their memories to the Birthday Gallery, and share this momentous milestone with both the studio and community members from all around the world.

Over the next few months, regular streams of CD PROJEKT RED games will be hosted on the 20th anniversary website, with studio members taking the audience on trips down memory lane every Wednesday, starting from July 6th. Visitors to the website will also be able to learn studio trivia, take part in challenges — and win prizes — and more.

Sydney, Australia, (July 1, 2022) – A new trailer, teasing the story of The Chant – a third person horror action-adventure game due to ship later this year – is unveiling today.

Welcome to the Prismic Science Spiritual Retreat on remote Glory Island. Discard your baggage from the past and transform your Gloom to Glory. When a ritualistic chant goes wrong, the negative energy of the group opens up a dimension of cosmic terror.

To survive, you must uncover a cult mystery of both past and present as the others slowly go mad from a host of parasitic creatures. These horrors prey on your own fears, which will be fatal unless you carefully balance your mind, body and spirit. Choose to flee or fight with an assortment of spiritual weapons and abilities to seal up The Gloom and escape from Glory Island.

To quote Mike Skupa, Creative Director: “We aim to surprise players with an off-kilter mix of 1970s cult horror and New Age spirituality.  As a boutique studio we have the freedom to try new things, and we’re challenging ourselves each day with our first title, The Chant”.

Sydney, Australia – 1^st July 2022: Let’s keep the fun going, Sonic fans! Following the worldwide release of Sonic Origins – the remastered multi-game collection of the original Sonic titles, today, SEGA released the third episode of Sonic Origins Speed Strats, bringing players up to speed on all things Sonic CD in Sonic Origins.

In the third episode of Sonic Origins Speed Strats below, SEGA dives into how Sonic met Amy Rose, a kind-hearted and cheerful hedgehog who likes mystical things and fortune telling, as he tries to stop Dr. Eggman from destroying Little Planet and stealing its Time Stones. Amy Rose’s trusty tarot cards reveal she’d have a fateful encounter with Sonic, but events take an unexpected turn when Metal Sonic, Dr. Eggman’s super advanced robot and Sonic’s look-alike, kidnaps Amy.

Below, you can find an overview of how players can help Sonic travel to the past and future to save Amy, Little Planet, and all of time from Dr. Eggman and Metal Sonic in Sonic CD:

• Time Travel Mechanics – In Sonic CD, the blue blur will have to time travel in each zone to stop Dr. Eggman and his Badniks from taking over Little Planet. This episode highlights the signs players can pass to reach top speeds and jump into the past or future. As players go into the past, they will be tasked with destroying Dr. Eggman’s equipment and holograms of Metal Sonic to stop his destructive plans in the future.
• Special Stages – Players must earn 50 Rings or more and jump into the giant ring to enter a Special Stage. Players may recognize this mechanic from Sonic the Hedgehog 1.
• Time Stones – Although these special stones look similar to Chaos Emeralds, the mythical Time Stones have the ability to grant the user power to control time once all seven are collected. In Sonic CD, players will embark on a mission to collect all seven Time Stones to ensure that Little Planet has a future. In order to get the Time Stone in each special stage, players must defeat all of the UFOs within the time limit. Time decreases if Sonic touches water, so do your best to avoid it!
• New Features – In Sonic Origins’ updated version of Sonic CD, players can employ Spin Dash as well as “Dash,” also known as the “Super Peel Out,” to start sprinting in a flash. When playing in “Anniversary Mode,” Sonic has his “Drop Dash” ability – first introduced in Sonic Mania. Also, players will be able to find Coins – the new currency in Sonic Origins. Sonic fans can also assume the role of the two-tailed fox: Tails. With his abilities to fly and swim, exploring each level becomes a whole lot easier. Story-wise, Sonic Origins includes two new animated cutscenes for Sonic CD. However, the original intro and outro are still available.

Sonic Origins is now available starting at $59.95 on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, the Nintendo Switch™ family of systems and PC.

3X GTA$ on Land Races

Storm and slipstream your way past your competitors in Land Races this week to edge the rest of the pack out and earn 3X GTA$, all week long.

To sweeten the pot, Racers who complete all Independence Day Special Land Races — Across the Wilderness, Mud, Sweat and Gears, Swamp Monster, and Tour the Lake — will receive a bonus to the tune of GTA$200K (delivered within 72 hours of completion).

Meanwhile, retrieved crates might contain the Pisswasser Beer Hat, Benedict Beer Hat, Patriot Beer Hat, Supa Wet Beer Hat, or Statue of Happiness T-Shirt. Because nothing says “stylish and healthy patriot” like a hat specifically designed to deliver alcohol into an awaiting gullet.

2X GTA$ and RP on Lester Contact Missions

Lester Crest’s reputation precedes him — as one of Southern San Andreas’ most successful career criminals, the FIB and other agencies are constant flies in his prescription-strength ointment. Help him out of various binds in Lester Contact Missions to earn 2X Rewards, all week long.

This week marks the return of a selection of modes with chaos woven into their very DNA: Overtime Rumble, Overtime Shootout, Inch by Inch, and Running Back (Remix). Make sure to get your kicks in while they’re available to play.

Everyone loves an underdog story. Case in point: Running Back (Remix), where a pint-sized Panto either barrels its way into the end-zone or gets obliterated in the process. Two teams of Tezeracts duke it out to protect or destroy the tiny hatchback on its mission — and everybody involved gets 3X GTA$ and RP for risking life and limb.

Only on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S
