The Future Is Now

Cyberpunk 2077 is set to be the most exciting game of the coming year. OXM went deep with CD Projekt red’s first-person sci-fi RPG, and over the next few pages we bring you everything you need to know about everyone’s most-wanted game

Every time we’re treated to some new information about Cyberpunk 2077 or see the game in action, we invariably get more excited about it. And it’s not hard to see why, given that it’s tapping into our innate desire to venture into a world in which we can live out our ultimate cyberpunk fantasy. The mere thought of wandering the streets of Night City and basking in its neon glow is enough to make us go haywire with excitement.

Top it off with the fact that it’s going to star one of the nicest people on the planet – we are, of course, referring to the rather breathtaking Keanu Reeves. But despite its impressive cast, we’ve played games inspired by the cyberpunk genre before – so what is it that makes this any different? The simple answer is that it’s being developed by one of the most talented triple-A development studios around. CD Projekt Red is renowned for creating games that are rich in both narrative and design, such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and it’s the studio’s approach to story-telling that leads us to expect this game will be nothing short of spectacular.
