Game news It is the end for the developers of Cyberpunk 2077, after more than 10 years of work on this exceptional video game, nothing will change this unique experience.
After more than a decade of development, developers CD Projekt Red can finally turn the page on Cyberpunk 2077: none of them are anymore involved in the project that was first launched in 2012.
Excessive waiting, chaotic launch and redemption for Cyberpunk 2077
When Cyberpunk 2077 was first announced in 2012, expectations were huge. Players around the world were eagerly awaiting what promised to be a revolutionary experience in the world of video games. However, when it launched in December 2020, the game was met with a wave of criticism due to numerous bugs and performance issues, especially on previous generation consoles.. This situation resulted in huge refunds and a decline in the value of CD Projekt Red shares.
Despite this chaotic start, the studio did not give up. The developers have worked tirelessly to fix issues, improve game stability, and add additional content. Update 2.0 and the Phantom Liberty expansion are crucial steps in this rehabilitation process. These additions not only fixed many bugs but also enriched the gaming experience with new features and improvements.
For example, Update 2.0 introduced important changes to gameplay mechanics, such as overhauling the skill system and improving enemy AI. The Phantom Liberty expansion introduced players to a captivating new story, featuring engaging characters (including one played by Idris Elba) and immersive environments. Thanks to these efforts, Cyberpunk 2077 was able to gradually win back the hearts of many players and critics.

Meanwhile, the Polish studio is also working on a new saga in the world of The Witcher with the Polaris project.

The end of Cyberpunk 2077's development is ultimately more than just a page turner: it's an entire story that comes to an end. A story that now has a before and after, and we will follow it with interest.
