20 years of CD PROJEKT RED: Did you know? #6 — RED Cryptolect

[Vattier]

Did you know that we use codenames to talk about projects before they're released?

For example: "Lava" meant REDengine, GWENT used to be called "Seawolf", and when REDs discussed "R6" they meant Cyberpunk 2077.

InternalVersion: 3.0.3333840 P4CL: 4269468 Stream: //R6.Root/R6.Release

What are these names?

One thing that can I think of for a red engine could be the game "Floor is a lava", which could mean they were trying to avoid it

Yamaha - YZF R6
