A look at how big budget game developers outsource crunch

· March 4, 2021 ·

When Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red promised none of its employees would have to work overtime to get the game done, did this also apply to the many developers working on parts of the game at its support studios? As far as Cyberpunk is confirmed, well, that point is now all moot . But it's an interesting question, and as pretty much every big budget game employs support studios, it's a topic well worth exploring.

That first slide does show how far we've come though, and AMD is at least definitely in the game at this stage. The fact it has a GPU that can beat the RTX 2080 Super at 1440p is nothing to be sniffed at. When it comes to the more up-to-date graphics cards, things look fairly healthy, although we'd recommend the usual pinch of sodium chloride, as AMD may have cherry-picked these games to some extent.
