I remember that the trailer caused an earthquake – everyone praised both the idea and the execution (as well as collaboration Archive, signifying CDPR's strong emphasis on the game's culturally relevant soundtrack).

Let’s get one thing straight, though: we do not mean to diminish the magnitude of work and achievements of the Warsaw studio. We have the utmost respect for their work, and we’ve previously voiced our solidarity with the developers.
