Just a few months before release, CD Projekt Red’s highly awaited open-world RPG Cyberpunk 2077 has been pushed back from April to September 2020.
Marcin Iwinski and Adam Badowski, co-founder and head of studio at developer CD Projekt Red explained the reason for the delay on Twitter as follows;
“We are currently at a stage where the game is complete and playable, but there’s still work to be done. “Night City is massive — full of stories, content and places to visit, but due to the sheer scale and complexity of it all, we need more time to finish playtesting, fixing and polishing. We want Cyberpunk 2077 to be our crowning achievement for this generation and postponing launch will give us the precious months we need to make the game perfect.”
While it comes off as mildly disappointing, we’d rather have a polished experience than a rushed one. Here’s us wishing CDPR all the very best.
