CD Projekt RED’s Cyberpunk 2077 is a mere 230-ish days away, and we couldn’t be more excited.
Well, that’s a bit of a lie as we’ve found out a bit more news that has got us deliriously giddy – Cyberpunk MIGHT have a multiplayer mode.
Will Cyberpunk 2077 Have Multiplayer?
Producer Richard Borzymowski spoke to Gamespot in an interview at Gamescom, and said that they’re currently “exploring multiplayer modes”, but quickly added: “This is all I can say at the moment.”
This isn’t the first time we’ve had a little inkling at the possibility of a multiplayer mode, as last year the company hired a Canadian studio called Digital Scapes. Why does this matter? Well, they announced that the company’s experience with “AAA multiplayer console and PC game development” was a reason for the team-up.
I don’t know about you, but that seems very suspicious.
Anyway, whatever form the game comes in, we know we’ll enjoy it.
One fan has taken their excitement for the game to the extreme, and has made an AMAZING cosplay version of the jacket we’ve grown to know and love from various images and videos of the video.
Reddit user @aelirenn has shared a video of her creation, and it is unbelievable.
The attention to detail is next level.
We’ve heard and seen a lot of Cyberpunk since its first gameplay reveal last year, but we’ve not really got to see too much regarding boss battles in the game – until now that is.
The official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account has delivered the goods and shared a screenshot of one of the game’s Big Baddies, and it looks as intense as you’d expect.
The image above shows Sasquatch, the leader of Night City’s Animals gang, brandishing a pretty gnarly-looking hammer that’s almost definitely going to be a challenge for players.
The boss battle with Sasquatch was shown off in all its glory during a closed-doors demo for press during E3 2019, but for now we’ll have to just deal with this single screenshot.

Hopefully we’ll be seeing some more of Cyberpunk 2077 during Gamescom later this month. Here’s hoping!
In other Cyberpunk 2077 news it’s been confirmed that the game will skip pre-order bonuses to ensure all of its players get to enjoy the same content.
*Cue the audible sigh of relief from gamers across the world.*
During a Twitter conversation that was then shared to Reddit [via Twisted Voxel], CD Projekt Red said that in-game content will be the same for everyone.
“No, we don’t do that,” said the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account “Every person that buys the game gets exactly the same in-game content, no matter if they buy it in preorders, on release date or 2 years later.”
Of course, there are the fancy editions if you want to make your Cyberpunk 2077 purchase a little more exciting, but all the bonuses you’ll get (depending on which edition you’re after) will be physical items like art books, pins, statues and postcards.
Cyberpunk 2077 will be releasing on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, on April 16 2020.
