Cyberpunk 2077 has been delayed till September 17th. CD Projekt Red introduced on Twitter today that, whereas technically playable from begin to end, Cyberpunk wouldn’t be prepared for its deliberate launch on April 16th. There’s a bit extra work to be achieved sprucing the streets of Night City, and the group wants a number of extra months to get it achieved.
Sorry, Keanu.
CD Projekt clearly have fairly lofty ambitions for Cyberpunk 2077, throwing round modest phrases like “crowning achievement for this generation.” As it occurs, three months wasn’t sufficient time to make these expectations a actuality, so that they’re shopping for themselves a number of extra.
“Cyberpunk 2077 received’t make the April launch window and we’re transferring the launch date to September 17th, 2020.
“We are currently at a stage where the game is complete and playable, but there’s still work to be done. Night City is massive – full of stories, content and places to visit, but due to the sheer scale and complexity of it all, we need more time to finish fixing, playtesting and polishing. We want Cyberpunk 2077 to be our crowning achievement for this generation and postponing launch will give us the precious months we need to make the game perfect.”
Our personal Matt wasn’t fairly as enamoured with Cyberpunk when he acquired his mitts on it at E3 last year. From what I hear, the hacking’s shaping up alright, however the taking pictures sounds prefer it might use a number of extra months of tweaking and tinkering.
Studio head Adam Badowski and co-founder Marchin Iwinski did, not less than, promise to ramp up the updates on improvement as the discharge date approaches. In the meantime, I’ve nonetheless acquired loads of The Witcher three to plug by after leaping on the Netflix bandwagon. Toss a coin, and all that.
