Cyberpunk 2077 is planned to sell no less than 19 million copies in its first quarter, according to brokerage firm Vestor DM, a company whose job it is to facilitate the buying and selling of financial securities. Better yet, they feel it is going to be as polished as Red Dead Redemption 2!
Cyberpunk 2077's developers, CD Projekt RED, have become synonymous with gaming industry leaders following their release of the critically-acclaimed and fan-beloved The Witcher 3, and so it is no surprise that everyone's got extremely high hopes for their next project.
According to a recent article by Stockwatch, a Polish financial website, expectations for Cyberpunk 2077 are immense: "The brokerage house maintains the belief that Cyberpunk 2077 will sell 19 million copies in its first quarter. These are incredibly ambitious predictions, putting the Polish developer in a row with a company that currently does not really have competition in our industry. Rockstar functions in its own elite league."
Yet, Vestor DM seem to stick to their guns: "We maintain the assumption of a debut in Q4'19 (it can not be ruled out that it is the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, i.e. in fact Q1 2020 - perm. aut), sale of 19 million copies in the first quarter of the premiere and revenues of 1.9 billion zlotys."
1.9 billion zlotys amounts to about $525 million, which is - well - impressive, to say the least. According to CD Projekt RED CEO Adam Kiciński, the quality of Cyberpunk 2077 will justify such numbers: "Without a doubt, quality is of paramount importance. We strive to publish games which are as refined as Red Dead Redemption 2, and recent Rockstar Releases in general."
All that's really left to say is that the expectations for Cyberpunk 2077 seemingly keep rising higher all the time and, honestly, things are looking really good so far. Let us hope that CD Projekt RED deliver once again.
