CD Projekt announced that an early stage of work on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 has started and, to quote a classic, it’s déjà vu all over again.
With the announcement that the North American studios (in Boston and Vancouver) will be doing the heavy lifting in this project to make the world feel more "American", some details were "revealed". Among the things that might be included in the project (at least according to Cyberpunk creator Mike Pondsmith) will be a second city that will "feel like Chicago gone wrong" and "the most realistic and reactive crowd system in any game to date". Hmm, where have I heard things like that before? Oh yeah, in marketing materials before Cyberpunk 2077 had its infamous premiere.
What else we can count on? "Memorable combat encounters" and "divergent experiences that cater to all available play styles". Yup, same BS, new shovel. For some unexplainable reason CD Projekt felt the urge to announce Cyberpunk 2 back in October 2022, they started a very early stage of the work on the project in May 2025 and it is planned to be published in late 2030 or early 2031.
So, to sum up, they announce the game almost 3 years before they even started to work on it, yet they know how long the production cycle will be, before it has even started. Is it me or CD Projekt did not learn a single thing from the most despicable and embarrassingly bad premiere of Cyberpunk 2077, a game that still is prominently present in almost every single video on GameSprout? I guess not. So for the next few years we can expect the "revelations" of what will or will not be present in the game that is still only a glimpse in the eye of its creators.

Let the sarcastic clapping begin!
Cyberpunk 2077, a game with one of the worst premieres in modern times, just became a Game of the Year! No, you didn’t wake up in some parallel universe, although... I’m not that sure to be honest.
Another game have cyberpunked
To no-one’s surprise another big title have just completely cyberpunked on the premiere - buggy, under-developed, remade to appeal to everyone. And ended up quickly forgotten. Yes, I mean Saints Row.
How Cyberpunk 2077 made history and what you should learn from it
Cyberpunk 2077, new game from CD Projekt Red studio, premiered on 10th December 2020 and, just like rest of the year 2020, it was a painful experience. Although after about 8 years in production developers made history, I don’t think that was the way they wanted to do it.
CD Projekt RED finally gives up
After almost 2 years of empty promises and pointless roadmaps that never materialized it looks like CD Projekt RED finally gave up on saving the dumpster fire that Cyberpunk 2077 was. I mean they put up another patch.
It was worth it!
Few years back YouTube, as it is a tradition of that company, screwed over the creators on the platform by changing the rules of monetization and in single move cutting a lot of people from potential income. But at least now we can say it was all worth it!
