‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Release Date, Latest News: Turkish Publisher Says Game Will Launch in 2019

Aside from sharing nearly 50-minute gameplay footage for “Cyberpunk 2077” in August, CD Projekt Red has done their best to keep things under wraps even as speculations mount regarding the potential launch date for the upcoming role-playing game. However, the game’s Turkish publishers were not as careful, and they might have spilled the beans on the release date.

Last week, Bilkom tweeted that “Cyberpunk 2077” was going to come out in 2019. The Istanbul-based publisher eventually deleted the tweet, but VG247 Turkey managed to grab a screenshot of it before it was removed.

“That's a long way from a confirmation, but it fits with what we've heard previously, including a report from March 2017 stating that the work on the project was ‘quite advanced,’ even though it was at that point more than a year away from being properly revealed,” Andy Chalk said in his report for PC Gamer.

“Then again, CD Projekt isn't shy about delaying games, and I imagine it will want to be extra-cautious with Cyberpunk 2077, given the extremely high expectations for it,” he added.

During an appearance at Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2018 in June, “Cyberpunk 2020” creator Mike Pondsmith seemed to have implied that “Cyberpunk 2077” was still a few years away from being finished.

For now, there’s no way to tell if this was simply an error. CD Projekt has been extremely secretive about the upcoming game, but it’s quite possible that Bilkom may have some information on “Cyberpunk 2077’s” release date since they have been working with CD Projekt for some time now.

A 2019 release remains a possibility, but gamers are advised to take this “Cyberpunk 2077” release date leak with a grain of salt because as noted by Chalk, the developers at CD Projekt have never been afraid to take their time to get it right.
