Piracy Backlash Follows Cyberpunk 2077 VR Mod DMCA Takedown

Cyberpunk 2077's R.E.A.L VR mod creator Luke Ross says pirates are punishing him after CD Projekt Red's DMCA takedown, with the paywalled mod seeing widespread illegal sharing. He argues making a Cyberpunk 2077-specific version would be technically difficult due to support for 40+ engines, and notes that CDPR's fan guidelines allow donations but forbid paywalls. The NDA Ross received was tied to the Patreon setup rather than the mod itself, but piracy spreading the mod online underscores tensions between modders and big studios.

CD Projekt DMCA blocks Cyberpunk 2077 VR mod over Patreon paywall, prompting creator to step back

CD Projekt issued a DMCA against Luke Ross’s Cyberpunk 2077 VR mod, part of the R.E.A.L. VR framework, because it was behind a Patreon paywall; the company said monetization without permission violated its fan-content guidelines and demanded the mod be made free (with optional donations) or removed. Ross argues the move shows the company’s focus on profit and says he’s stepping away from the project, noting prior takedowns of his other mods. The dispute underscores tensions between fan-made VR mods and IP owners, with Ross planning other VR work such as a Baldur’s Gate 3 mod.
