CD Projekt RED fuels expectations for Cyberpunk 2077. They aim to surpass games like The Witcher 3.
Since BioWare fell from grace with Mass Effect: Andromeda, no other development studio has represented good RPGs as much as CD Projekt RED. Recently, they developed one of the best RPGs of all time with The Witcher 3 (if not the best). However, for the creators, this is far from the end of the road. The upcoming Cyberpunk 2077, set in a futuristic version of our world, is intended to outshine the fantasy game Witcher by a large margin.
As CD Projekt Red CEO Adam Kicinski mentioned in a seminar, “Cyberpunk is our new Witcher 3, but even more ambitious.”
Many fans expressed concerns that Cyberpunk might jump on the loot box hype or even become a purely online game. However, this has also been denied again.
“We are working on a new, futuristic universe. We believe it will be very appealing to players, not just RPG players – but it is a pure RPG like Witcher 3, for an adult audience. It is a handcrafted, detail-loving, and of course open world.”
Although CD Projekt RED particularly likes to release on the GOG platform (a Steam competitor), the game will also be released on Steam – whenever that may be.
Fans have been waiting for fresh information for years, as the last trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 was quite some time ago. For a long time, there was complete silence, leading to fears that the project had been canceled. However, a few weeks ago, the Twitter account of Cyberpunk 2077 returned with a small word, and the fans went wild.
The impatience of the fan community continues to grow, and everyone hopes that there will be at least a new trailer at E3. We will keep you updated.
