CD Projekt Red tested AI-based tools designed to generate realistic crowds of non-player characters (NPCs) for use in The Witcher 4 and the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel. As of the company's 2025 Management Board Report, some of these initiatives had progressed from research to preliminary utilization, with the AI team pursuing approximately a dozen active research projects.

According to CD Projekt Red's official 2025 Management Board Report, the studio's dedicated AI research team investigated both existing AI-based tools and custom-built solutions, focusing specifically on automating prototyping, game testing, and generating realistic crowds of NPCs. The company confirmed that as of 2025, some ongoing initiatives had moved to 'testing and preliminary utilization.' The studio has stated its AI work does not focus on generative AI for in-game content, citing legal uncertainties around intellectual property ownership as a reason for that constraint.
