CD Projekt is a video game distributor and publisher located in Warsaw, Poland. The company’s history goes back to May 1994 when it was founded by Michal Kicinski and Marcin Iwinski. Before founding the company, Marcin and Michal were both game retailers. Moreover, the company is most famous for The Witcher games, which were created by CD Projekt Red, their own division, and the digital supplier service GOG. In addition, CD Projekt started translating big video game issues into Polish. They were working with Interplay Entertainment back then for 2 Baldur’s Gate games.

The company was working solo on Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance PC version when Interplay was into financial problems. However, Baldur’s Gate was officially cancelled and they decided to use the same code for their own new video game. Later sometime, the game became known as The Witcher. After The Witcher was published, the company started working on a port named The Witcher: White Wolf. However, increased costs and development problems almost led CD Projekt to bankruptcy. Sometime later, the company published The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. In addition, in 2015, they released The Witcher 3: Wild Hint.
