Cyberpunk 2077 Release Date, Trailers And Latest News – Cultured Vultures

Cyberpunk 2077 was a much-anticipated game long before The Witcher 3s rampant success. Following the worldwide love-in for CD Projekt Reds masterpiece, however, the hype levels for what the Polish developers could do with their next big project have gone through the roof.

As is customary for the developer, they have flatly refused to talk about the game until theyre good and ready, so any news has usually come from internet trawlers and detectives. We dont know exactly what kind of game it will end up looking like, but that hasnt stopped everyone from putting Cyberpunk 2077 on a pedestal as arguably the most exciting game still to come.

Heres what we know so far.

What is Cyberpunk 2077s release date? Coming: when its ready.

The closing line from the games teaser trailer shows that they wont be rushed into releasing Cyberpunk 2077, but rumours abound that we might find out more at E3 2017.

However, an interesting point to note is that the game was given millions in Polish government funding to work towards a 2019 release.

Where can I play Cyberpunk 2077? Nothing confirmed, but you can bet your house that it will come to all modern consoles and PC. It worked wonders for them for TW3, so expect the confirmation alongside its release date.

What genre does Cyberpunk 2077 belong to? Now thats a question.

Its going to be an RPG in the same way Geralts last hurrah was, but as for exactly how it will play, your guess is as good as ours.

It can, however, be played either in first or third-person, and will feature multiplayer elements.

Strap in, CDPR went into a lot of detail:

In Cyberpunk 2077, the player will be thrown into a dark future. The metropolis of Night City is a stage set to tell the tale of one individual, raised on the streets, who tries to lift himself up from the gutter and find a way to survive amongst boostergangs and megacorporations in a city of filth and sin. Drugs, violence, poverty and exclusion havent disappeared by 2077, as people stayed they were for centuries greedy, closed-minded and weak. But not only ghosts of the past trouble mankind, but new issues have appeared. Psychos go on rampages and the streets are filled with junkies addicted to a new form of entertainment the braindance, a cheap way to experience the emotions and stimuli of someone else, someone living a more exciting life.

Braindances are digital recordings of a persons experience. The viewer can stream a braindance directly into his neural system via special brain augmentations, called a BD player. Braindances allow the viewer to experience all brain processes registered, including emotions, muscle movements and all stimuli perceived by the recording person.

The range of themes of these recordings varies from simple braindances made by mega-corporations, which e.g. allow the viewer to feel the full experience of an explorer with all its thrills, sweats, smells, views, sounds and the real feeling of curiosity that pushes men to go beyond the horizon against fear and physical weakness. But there are also more controversial sides of braindance, because some recordings are created illegally in the underground. Entering the mind of a serial killer means not only seeing the monstrosity he performs, but also living his lust to kill and fulfillment.

You havent experienced the latest New Hollywood recording? Youre nobody! The streets live with braindances, everyone just got crazy and wants to be a part of this new entertainment fad. Some people push it even too far and they cannot stop living other peoples lives. If youre not linked to a braindance right now, you are probably discussing what happened to you during your last session. Of course, just like every great new cultural movement, BDs have people who criticize them.

The development was granted $7million from the Polish government in December 2016. The song in its teaser trailer is Bullets by British band Archive. It will be built on RedEngine4. Sandboxes will feature, as a job listing by CDPR confirms. This means that it will be open-world. It will feature Seamless Multiplayer, which might be Ubisoft-style multiplayer or that it just works smoothly. Humans will be augmented. Cyberpunk 2077 will be far bigger than anything the developers have done before. Its based on the role-playing game Cyberpunk 2020 by Mike Pondsmith, who will also act as a consultant for 2077. Marcin Przybyowicz returns from TW3 to take charge of the music. Cyberpunk 2077 will take place in Night City, a futuristic city that looks dangerous close to being dystopic.

Of course. Thats a silly question.

CDPR have a mighty high mountain of hype to climb over and are probably going to disappoint plenty of people when it isnt the exact game they imagined it would be, but its a safe bet to say that its going to be better than most stuff out there.

As long as we get blade arms, were cool.

Sometimes I think I only started this site so I could make up important sounding positions for myself.
