CD Projekt RED has revealed that the highly anticipatedCyberpunk 2077 will be getting a multiplayer mode down the line, and that this modewill actually be a standalone experience that will not affect the game's single-player mode at all; it will only expand on the experience.

Cyberpunk 2077's multiplayer experience will be featuring microtransactions, but these will not negatively impact the game in any possible way; again, this is a standalone experience. Whatever the case, the word microtransaction has a pretty bad connotation, for all the good reasons, but CD Projekt RED urges players to trust them in this regard.

As revealed by CD Projekt RED PresidentAdam Kicinski, the multiplayer mode for Cyberpunk 2077 will feature microtransactions, but he reveals that they "will not be aggressive" in this particular regard, and that this will likely make players happy.

"Well, we're never aggressive towards our fans!We treat them fairly and we're friendly. So of course not--we won't be aggressive--but you can expect great things to be bought. The goal is to design monetization in a way that makes people happy to spend money. I'm not trying to be cynical or hide something; it's about creating a feeling of value," stated Kicinski in a recent earnings report.

Kicinski also compares their strategy in regards to microtransactions to their single-player titles mentioning that both aim to make players happy, while also giving them a run for their money; microtransactions, in this case, will not be the exception.

"Same as with our single-player games: we want gamers to be happy while spending money on our products," Kicinski then added. "The same is true for microtransactions: you can expect them, of course, and [Cyberpunk 2077] is a great setting for selling things, but it won't be aggressive; it won't upset gamers but it'll make them happy--that's our goal at least."

With all of this said, CD Projekt RED has yet to officially announced this muliplayer experience for the game. Cyberpunk 2077 is expected to release in November, so it may be a while before we hear from the studio and their ideas for this multiplayer mode, but it definitely sounds like they won't be ripping anyone off with these microtransactions.

Even if microtransactions do end up ruining thismultiplayer mode for some, Cyberpunk 2077 will still give players the full video gaming experience they've been looking forward to since the game was announced; multiplayer is optional, expected to release at some point in 2022,and will not ruin the main campaign in the slightest.

In the most dangerous megacity of the future, the real you is not enough. Become V, a cyber-enhanced mercenary outlaw going after a one-of-a-kind implant the key to immortality. Customize your cyberware and skillset, and explore a vast city of the future obsessed with power, glamour and body modification. The choices you make will determine the story and shape the world around you.

Cyberpunk 2077 will be releasing for thePlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on Thursday the 19th of November; PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X release date to be revealed.
