Keanu Reeves is the star of the latest Cyberpunk 2077 commercial, broadcast during the NBA Finals between Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat.
Reeves, who stars in the CD Projekt Red game, appears in the new ad doing exactly what he does best – being a bad*ss and driving a cool car. In case you missed it, check out the “Seize the Day” commercial below!
We’re finally in the homestretch on the release to Cyberpunk 2077, a game which was first announced way back in May 2012.
The upcoming RPG will star Reeves as something of a guide, speaking and appearing to you via a chip implanted in your body.
Speaking with BBC NewsBeat last year, Reeves gave a little information about the character he’s playing, saying: “I’m kind of a guide. You know, you have to do something, but Johnny wants you to do something too. There’s this…Am I your friend? Am I a foe? Am I really helping you? Am I not helping you? Are you in my way?”
I guess we’ll find out!
As one of the most highly-anticipated games of possibly the last decade, developer CD Projekt Red has a huge task ahead of itself with Cyberpunk 2077, and now we’re just a few weeks away from release, the pressure is truly on.
The company has recently come under fire for placing mandated crunch on its staff, with Bloomberg reporting that CDPR staff are having to work six day weeks in order to ship the game on time.
Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC on November 19th, 2020, with the version for Google Stadia set to launch the same year. The game will also be playable on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 consoles when available.
