Cyberpunk 2077: gameplay and story

Cyberpunk 2077 is the long-awaited new title from the Polish game house of CD Projekt RED, the brains behind the Witcher series around Geralt von Riva. Read here which information about the story and gameplay of the science fiction action role-playing game is already known.

Cyberpunk 2077: making history in Night City

Cyberpunk 2077 has been one of the long-awaited game titles from CD Projekt Red since its announcement in May 2012. So far, little is known about the actual story. Just that it was inspired by a pen and paper role-playing game called "Night City" from the Cyberpunk series by Mike Pondsmith. Night City is the name of the city, which will also be the main setting for Cyberpunk 2077.

• The Pen & Paper template takes place in 2020, 57 years before the game, and describes the destruction of an entire district by armed conflicts between mobs and companies. Cyberpunk 2077 will likely shed light on its implications and opportunities to make big money in this environment.
• The controlled character is called V and this is a "cyberpunk". V can use modifications to adapt all aspects of the body, such as skills, appearance and even gender, at will. V is always on the lookout for the next lucrative business to get by in the night city dominated by drugs, sex, corruption, crime and poverty.
• So far, no more is known about the possible story content in Cyberpunk 2077. Likewise, no release date has yet been set, but the period from late 2019 to 2021 seems realistic. The title will be released for PS4, Xbox One and Windows.

Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay: mix of open world, role playing and first person shooter

Cyberpunk 2077 is a very ambitious project according to the well-known CD project Red-Manner and the official gameplay demo already allows deep insights into the gameplay. Main character V stands out particularly. You can determine the gender of the character and its appearance yourself. In the course of the game, you can make numerous augmentations on your body, which significantly influence the capabilities of V and range in quality from black market goods to military technology. For example, augmentation offers a blade that protrudes from V's arm, other hacking tools or scanners for the environment. But that's not all the gameplay mechanics that are waiting for you in the sci-fi inspired FPS role-playing game.

• Interactive Open World : CD Projekt Red relies on an extensive Open World to interact with numerous objects such as billboards, vending machines for drinks or moving objects. These can be used to obtain information or create advantages in combat. So it is possible to move cars and use them as protection against a hail of bullets.
• Dialogue Options : With numerous characters in the world, there are just as many dialogue options. These enable free movement in space via the ego perspective and thereby create smooth transitions from game world to conversation and cut scene. The player also has several answer options to choose from.
• Romantic relationships : As in The Witcher, relationships are also waiting for the player. These range from heterosexual to homosexual to bisexual and you can decide for yourself which potential partner you want to give a chance.
• Vehicles : V can use vehicles to get from A to B, escape or pursue opponents. How free this system is implemented is not yet known.
• NPC Behavior : The behavior of the NPCs towards the character changes depending on clothing, augmentation and the decisions made during the game.
