Cyberpunk 2077 - the new open-world action adventure

With Cyberpunk 2077, Polish developer CD Projekt RED has set itself the task of creating an extraordinary role-playing game that offers even more narrative and gameplay than The Witcher 3. You are V, a mercenary in the fictional city of Night City in California in 2077. The dark game world offers an open world with six different regions that will be freely accessible. CD Projekt RED is still keeping tight-lipped about the plot, but we know that the alteration of the human body and its properties through technical implants will be in the foreground.

Release date finally announced!

The science fiction role-playing game was originally supposed to be released in April 2020. Then the release was first postponed to September 2020. But in September, fans of the long-awaited blockbuster had to wait another two months. CD Projekt RED cited the difficult conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic as well as the fact that they really wanted to release the game only when the final touches were completed.

Now the developer has assured via the official Twitter account of the game that there will be no further postponement. Cyberpunk 2077 will definitely be released on November 19, 2020 for Playstation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows.

The world of Cyberpunk 2077 reacts to you

At the latest since the presentation of the creation mode for the player character V it is clear that CD Projekt RED has set itself high goals. According to the developer, V can be completely customized by you. Gender, clothing, weapons, implants: These areas are all said to influence how the fights take place, how non-player characters (NPCs) react to you and which decision-making options become available during the course of the action. Now more details about the NPCs have been added. Many of them can temporarily become your companions according to CD Projekt RED. However, a dynamic friend-enemy system can also lead to you making new enemies among the NPCs.
