CD Projekt Red, famed for its Witcher series, has released a new trailer for its next open-world action RPG game Cyberpunk 2077, which you can watch above.
Members of the games writing community have also had time with the game (I’m sure that was an interesting exercise in logistics, given the current global pandemic), spending time with the first few hours, and previews are up about their foray into Night City, but personally, I’m trying to watch as little as possible: I want to go into Cyberpunk 2077 as fresh as possible.
That said, I can guarantee that I’m going to be playing Cyberpunk 2077 as my children pre-ordered the game for me on PlayStation 4 as a Father’s Day present [Father’s Day in New Zealand is in September] – but I had been expecting to play it in April, as many gamers had been hoping, until it was delayed – and now it’s been delayed until November this year [which is, suspiciously, the same time that many expect the next-generation PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series to be out].
Also, it seems CD Projekt Red & Netflix have teamed up to produce a new anime show Cyberpunk Edgerunners which takes place in the same universe as Cyberpunk 2077. Coming out inj 2022, a media release about the series says it’s a “standalone, 10-episode story about a street kid trying to survive in a technology and body modification-obsessed city of the future. Having everything to lose, he chooses to stay alive by becoming an edgerunner—a mercenary outlaw also known as a cyberpunk.”

Anyone else planning on checking out Cyberpunk 2077?
Definitely going to upgrade my laptop for this game. I can’t wait!
