Well…ok, here we go again. CD Projekt Red has confirmed that once again they are pushing back release of Cyberpunk 2077 and this time by 21 days to December 10th 2020.
From this official tweet it seems this delay is down to the amount of testing they are doing across the multiple versions of the game for current gen in PS4 and Xbox One, PC and then next gen with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. With everyone working from home, that strain has a cost and price for a game the size of Cyberpunk 2077 but this is the 4th delay now, the 3rd of 2020 alone for it and just two weeks since they celebrated the game going gold and ready to go into physical production.
But being honest, this news sucks as much for fans but especially for the developer team who have put years into this game and November has a packed list of releases ready for the launch of the next generation of consoles alone. It is better to delay a game and have it ready for release then release a broken game too early and have an Anthem or MARVEL’s Avengers which has pretty much already died in terms of player numbers and is still in need of new content and corrective updates.
So Cyberpunk 2077 moves to a December release and no doubt anyone who wanted it has it pre-ordered, my own is fully paid for and just means the Cyberpunk Controller I have continues to sit in its box……still think the wait will be worth it.
