CD Projekt has announced Cyberpunk, a new RPG game based on the pen and paper Cyberpunk 2020 game.
This new game will be very mature and is set in a very realistic world. A new team is currently working on the game.
Cyberpunk designer and RPG vet Mike Pondsmith teamed up with CD Projekt more than a year ago and they’ve been working on this new game ever since.
This new game will have a lot of elements that also could be found in de beloved Witcher games such as a non-linear experience with “a complex and gripping story.”
Players will be able to create their own unique character and class to discover this interesting new world.
For over two decades, I’ve been proud to say that Cyberpunk’s been the gold standard of what it means to be a true cyberpunk game,” said Pondsmith. “And it’s been a huge success for me and our many fans, with over 5 million players worldwide. But over all that time we haven’t found the right team to bring our Cyberpunk world to full digital life — until now.
“CD Projekt Red is the team we’ve been hoping for. Their incredible work on The Witcher and The Witcher 2 shows that they share the same dedication and love of great games that we do at Talsorian. I’m especially stoked that they want our participation in making this game a fantastic project that will live up to everything Cyberpunk fans (old and new) have been waiting for. Trust me — this game is going to rock.”
We’ll have more details later on.
