“Cyberpunk 2077” is one of the most highly anticipated video games in the industry and for good reason. It is being made by Polish game studio CD Projekt Red, which is the same studio responsible for the phenomenal “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.” Speaking of that fantasy game, it would seem that it had an influence on the recently released demo. A new mysterious partnership was also recently announced.

One of the developers behind “Cyberpunk 2077,” Miles Tost recently spoke with Gaming Bolt to discuss details about the game. During the talk, the matter of how “The Witcher 3” might have influenced the demo for the sci-fi shooter RPG was brought up. Specifically, the part where it might be downgraded once the game releases.

“The demo gameplay video was recorded from a work in progress version of the game and we were a bit uncertain if we should release it to the general public as we didn’t want to commit to any particular design. A lot can change between now and launch, but you can be certain that we’re not going to release a game we’re not happy with,” Tost said.

Speaking of things that CD Projekt Red is happy with, the company recently announced its partnership with Digital Scapes, VGR reports. It would appear that this partnership has to do with “Cyberpunk 2077” in some manner. The publication notes, however, that the goal of the partnership or the role that Digital Scapes will play is still a mystery.

The specific release date of “Cyberpunk 2077” has yet to be announced, though, there are rumors that put that period somewhere around 2019. However, considering the massive scope with which the developers are creating the game around, such a timeline is just not realistic. With CD Projekt Red’s propensity for perfection, it’s more likely that the game will be released in 2020 or beyond.
