New Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay will be shown to the world next week, CD Projekt RED confirmed today.
On August 30th, at 8PM CEST (11AM PT), CDPR will show a 15.minute edit of the gameplay demo that is being shown to the press at this year's Gamescom.
Next week we’re going to host a stream during which we’ll unveil a 15-minute edit of what we’ve been showing to journalists and gamers here at gamescom, and then interview devs from the studio for additional information on what you just saw. Expect a lot of insight into the thought process behind creative decisions, information about Pacifica—one of the districts of Night City—and TONS of stuff on playstyles you’ll be able to adopt when you launch Cyberpunk 2077 next year.
Yesterday, CD Projekt RED commented on the Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer portion, which is still in the R&D phase.
We are doing R&D into multiplayer but we’re focusing on single-player experience, and that’s what you’ll get in 2020 when Cyberpunk 2077 ships. It doesn’t mean we’re saying no multiplayer, but it doesn’t mean we’re saying yes either. It’s still an R&D phase.
If you add multiplayer functions it has to be right. Immersion is super important for us and we have to make sure everything fits together. The single-player experience, it all fits together. We’re not just going to slap some [multiplayer] feature in and that’ll be it.
It’s possible if it doesn’t fit, it doesn’t fit. We would never make anything that’s not at least The Witcher standard for Cyberpunk 2077. I don’t know what the future holds but we will make sure everything we make will be high quality.
Cyberpunk 2077 launches in April 2020 on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
