Cyberpunk 2077 is an upcoming role-playing video game developed by CD Projekt RED and published by CD Projekt.

Gameplay

Cyberpunk 2077 is a role-playing video game played from either a first-person or third-person perspective.[1][2] It is set in an open world[3][4] metropolis called Night City. The game will feature non-English speaking characters. Players who do not speak the languages can buy translator implants to better comprehend them; depending on the advancement of the implants, the quality of translations will vary, with more expensive implants rendering more accurate translations.[5][6] "Braindance", a digital recording device streamed directly into the brain, allows the player character to experience the emotions, brain processes and muscle movements of another person as though they were their own.[7]

Along with the single-player story, Cyberpunk 2077 will include a multiplayer component.[4]

Development

Around the time of pre-production, approximately fifty staff were working on Cyberpunk 2077.[8] CD Projekt RED later devoted a team larger than that of the developer's previous title The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.[9] CD Projekt RED started upgrading its REDengine 3 game engine for the game around the time The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released.[10] Mike Pondsmith, who created the original tabletop game Cyberpunk 2020, is consulting on the project.[11] Marcin Przybyłowicz was chosen to write the music.[12]

A funding application for the Polish government, granting CD Projekt RED US$7 million, noted that the release could potentially take place in 2019 and confirmed the employment of REDengine 4.[13] CD Projekt RED issued a statement in June 2017 explaining that data containing early designs had been stolen and threatened to be released to the public. The developer refused to comply with the ransom demand.[14][15]

Release and marketing

Cyberpunk 2077 was announced in May 2012.[8] On 10 January 2013, the teaser trailer was released online.[16] It received the People's Choice award for Best Animation at the 2013 FITC Awards,[17] the award for Best Trailer at the 2013 Machinima Inside Gaming Awards,[18] and a nomination for Best Video Game Trailer at the 2013 Golden Trailer Awards.[19] The game has been confirmed for Microsoft Windows, with PlayStation 4 and Xbox One cited as probable platforms.[20]
