CD PROJEKT has been hacked, the company announced this morning in a tweet posted on its official account. The hackers left a ransom note, threatening to release source codes for several games developed by CD PROJEKT RED, including Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher 3, and Gwent. The hackers also claim to have stolen documents related to HR, accounting, administration, legal, and investor relations. The company does not wish to give in to the ransom request, however.

Yesterday we discovered that we have become a victim of a targeted cyber attack, due to which some of our internal systems have been compromised.

An unidentified actor gained unauthorized access to our internal network, collected certain data belonging to CD PROJEKT capital group, and left a ransom note the content of which we release to the public. Although some devices in our network have been encrypted, our backups remain intact. We have already secured our IT infrastructure and begun restoring the data.
