Cyberpunk 2077 - Gamers Guide
Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 is an action role-playing video game developed and published by CD Projekt. The story takes place in Night City, an open world set in the Cyberpunk universe. Players assume the first-person perspective of a customizable mercenary known as V, who can acquire skills in hacking and machinery with options for melee and ranged combat.
The game was developed using the REDengine 4 by a team of
around 500 people, exceeding the number that worked on the studio's previous
game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015). CD Projekt launched a new division in
Wrocław, Poland, and partnered with Digital Scapes, Nvidia, QLOC, and Jali
Research to aid the production. Cyberpunk creator Mike Pondsmith was a
consultant, and actor Keanu Reeves has a starring role. The original score was
led by Marcin Przybyłowicz, featuring the contributions of several licensed
artists.
After years of anticipation, CD Projekt released Cyberpunk
2077 for PlayStation 4, Stadia, Windows, and Xbox One on 10 December 2020,
followed by PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on 15 February 2022. It received
praise from critics for its narrative, setting, and graphics, although some of
its gameplay elements received mixed responses, while its themes and
representation of transgender characters received some criticism. It was also
widely criticized for bugs, particularly in the console versions, which
suffered from performance problems; Sony removed it from the PlayStation Store
from December 2020 to June 2021 while CD Projekt rectified some of the
problems. CD Projekt became subject to investigations and class-action lawsuits
for their perceived attempts at downplaying the severity of the technical
problems before release; these were ultimately cleared with a settlement of
US$1.85 million.
