Cyberpunk 2077 External QA Team Apparently Misled CD Projekt Red

Cyberpunk 2077

It sounds like the broken nature of Cyberpunk 2077 at launch wasn’t entirely in CD Projekt Red’s hands. A new report is pointing fingers at the dev’s external QA company, Quantic Lab, for misleading the developer over the size and experience of the team assuring its quality.

According to the report from Upper Echelon Games, who was sent a 72-page document consisting of the QA testing file, HR paperwork, and the game’s QA workflow, alongside evidence of the source’s employment.

It seemed CDPR was very proud of the number of QAs on the game, proudly showing off 75 individuals employed by the Romania-based firm. It isn’t like they’re new to the game either, having found work with other big names like Ubisoft, Paradox, Techland, and Deep Silver before it was acquired by Embracer Group.

According to the report, the QA team was largely made up of staffers with less than a year of experience in the field. Upper management didn’t help either with a required 10 bugs a day, meaning it’s possible the devs were too busy sweating the small stuff while major glitches slipped through the cracks before they finally stopped reporting the minor glitches and bugs to focus on the bigger picture.

Finally, it sounds like management even fumbled its job and misled people including CDPR with the size of the team with the boost from 30 to 60 people being new hires who was only given “weeks” of training. Quantic Lab even supposedly barred its QA testers from ever talking about their involvement in the process even for their portfolio, making what they did for Cyberpunk 2077 and their experience basically null in the eyes of perspective employers.
