(Reuters) -CD Projekt SA reported on Monday that its profit fell by more than half in the first quarter from a year earlier as its flagship game, "Cyberpunk 2077," was kept off Sony's PlayStation Store, which a company official said will continue to impact results.

"Cyberpunk 2077," featuring Hollywood star Keanu Reeves, was one of the most anticipated games last year. It was delayed three times, and after a bug-ridden premiere it has been delisted from Sony's PlayStation Store for more than five months.
