You Can Buddy Up With Keanu Reeves & Burn The City In Cyberpunk 2077

CD Projekt Red has treated us all to a slew of new info regarding its upcoming RPG, Cyberpunk 2077. At a community event in Warsaw, CD Projekt devs took the stage to answer some questions about their next game, and the news has made its way to Reddit thanks to shavod, a user who was at the event [via ComicBook].

Of course, Cyberpunk is set to be a seriously impressive game, but the addition of Keanu Reeves’ character Johnny Silverhand has only served to get players more hyped than ever.

When asked about Keanu Reeves’ character and whether or not you could “burn down” Night City with him, the dev response was apparently: “Of course!”

Whether that’s literal or metaphorical doesn’t seem to matter – Cyberpunk 2077 is going to let you go absolutely hardcore with Keanu Reeves as your best bud and I am so ready for it.

Other interesting tidbits from the event suggest that the game will be shorter in length than CD Projekt Red’s previous RPG, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

As Redditor shavod puts it: “In terms of length, main story of the Cyberpunk 2077 might be a little shorter then in The Witcher 3, but will make up for it with much higher replayability.

“However at the same time they still didn’t measure the length of the entire game with all the encounters and smaller quests accounted for, only of the main story and major sidequests.”

The team also admitted that “a lot of mocap [motion capture]” has been used for the sex scenes, meaning we’re going to be getting as close to the real deal as a video game should probably allow.
