CD Projekt RED announced in its financial report that Cyberpunk 2077 has entered its final stretch of development. The game will come out on September 17th, 2020, and this development/status update more or less confirms that the game will meet that release date deadline.
As CD Projekt RED stated:
“CD Project Red is carrying out with the final stage of development of its most expansive RPG to-date, Cyberpunk 2077. The game features a vibrant, high-tech open world, where players assume the role of V; a cyberpunk who has recently migrated to the most dangerous metropolis of the future: Night City. Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay follows the rules of the Cyberpunk 2020 RPG system created by Mike Pondsmith.”
Moreover, CD Projekt RED announced that The Witcher series has sold more than 50 million units. The first The Witcher game came out in 2007. Thus, it took the franchise around 13 years in order to surpass its 50 million milestone.
Over 50 million adventurers joined Geralt on his journey from Kaer Morhen to Vizima, through Flotsam and Vergen, Velen and Novigrad to Skellige Isles and Toussaint, and many, many more places, time and time again…
Thank you and may we meet on the path again! ⚔️ pic.twitter.com/cZwOup9CEc

CD Projekt RED has also released a sales infograph for The Witcher series. As we can clearly see, the release of The Witcher 3 gave the team a big boost.
Lastly, and as we’ve already reported, the PC version of The Witcher 3 is selling great. According to CD Projekt RED, most of the game’s sales these days come from the PC version. Additionally, The Witcher 3 has sold around 28 million copies, accounting of more than a half of the series’ total sales.
Since The Witcher games were a huge commercial hit for CD Projekt RED, it will be interesting to see whether we’ll get another one. CD Projekt RED claimed that it may, one day, return to this franchise. However, don’t expect a new game with Geralt. After all, Geralt’s story has ended.
Stay tuned for more!

meh, whatever, who cares.
just show us gameplay CDPR
show us more gameplay, none of that scripted nonsense you showed last year at E3
and for the love of god no more behind doors private gameplays
hope you don’t downgrade your game like you did with the Witcher 3
but i guess you can’t downgrade what’s already looking like last gen graphics
Remember when they released Witcher3 for PC and you couldn’t rebind WASD, bet everything else was fine to rebind? I’m waiting this time. Can’t trust after that mishap took months to patch.
Can’t effing wait to play this.
It’s amazing what they managed to create.
Just 3 more months and 2 weeks.
it’s in the final stretch, which means it’s only a few years away
they should have announced it 2 years ago not in g0ddamn 2013, it’s been 7 years !!!
I am a completely different person now!
they always get ahead of themselves in terms of EVERYTHING
I just really hope the wait has been worth it because things are not looking upIMO, we’ve yet to see proper uninterrupted gameplay, night time footage, a main mission or at least some exploration
to be honest, nothing about this game in its current state interests me.
the visuals lack the artistic touch we have come to expect from and associate with this genre, the music is loud and ludicrous, the gang system is downright boring, the combat seems mediocre and the engine will most certainly be unoptimised. the only thing I’m counting on them to not mess up is the story and the side missions.
as for the LGBT agenda, I don’t really care what they put in their games so long as they create their own IPs and stop incorporating their own personal preferences into a long-standing genre with its avid fanbase and then use it as a medium to propagate whatever it is they believe in. it would be their prerogative to do so if they had actually created the IP and the lore from scractch.
Anybody else just tired of this overhyped game already? Been hearing about this thing for 7 years now, and based on recent footage, it looks like nothing special.
The more things we know about it, the worse it gets…they are selling this on hype alone, it would bite them in the as* no matter how well will sell.
Really hyped for this.
The more ir ead about it the hyped i get.
Closing in on that release date.
Everything they have shown till now made me really interested in the game.
Hopefully not many buggs will pop up after release since thats the reason they pushed back the game.
While i did preorder this. I’m a bit more interested in the multiplayer.
But thats a few years away it seems. I can see them doing some randomly generated stuf with the Netrunner features. Since that class can go online and atack Datafortresses. Those are different each time. Can only be hopeful XD.
I never pre-order anything. I’m waiting for the game to release to make my decision but if the game turns out to be as good as I think it will then this will be one of the very, very few games that I will consider worth paying full price for.
I still have a good feeling about this game. I think CDPR is going to make a huge amount of money eventually on this game.
For anyone that doesn’t mind buying the game on GOG then that would be the best thing for CDPR since they get all of the money for the game that way and don’t lose 30% to Steam.
I buyed Witcher 3 for 15 eurors GOTY edition. And as a Thanks i will buy this Day one. Because i feel i ripped the developers.
You shouldn’t feel like you cheated the Publisher/Developer. No one is twisting their arms to lower the price. They know that some people aren’t going to pay full price so they wait until sales at full price have slacked off a lot and then the sales and discounts come to try to squeeze a few more dollars out of the game. It’s a business decision on their part and I think it’s pretty smart. $15 is better than nothing.
That’s why the big Steam sales started to begin with. People end up buying a bunch of games that they might never play anyway and the Publisher/Developer gets some money that they may never have gotten any other way.
Yeah but i feel that i want to thank them more. I hope i like this game too. I just want to support the company who actually cares for gamers. There has been several good will from CDPR that i have seen not like other developers. I can only vote with my wallet, and if they start f*k up i won’t give them my money anymore. But everything you say is right too. I am playing games from 2017 right now because i am just so much down on the games that i want to play and i usually don’t buy new games until most have been completed. Have a nice one in this crazy crazy times.
