CD Projekt Red Announces Cyberpunk Title

Not content to be lost in the chaos that is E3, the folks at CD Projekt Red decided to hold their own press conference yesterday, in order to talk about a few things they’re working on. The biggest news was that the company is developing a new title based on the classic Cyberpunk pen and paper RPG game.

What’s interesting is that little real information was given about the forthcoming title. They did promise that it “will be designed for mature and demanding players who expect to be treated seriously, and the game will be richly detailed, non-linear, and with a complex and gripping story.” And that “players will experience the world through their own, unique characters chosen from different classes – be they blood-thirsty mercenaries or cunning hackers, who they will equip with vast choice of cybernetic implants and deadly weapons.”

They did note that the team working on this new Cyberpunk title will not be the same one that developed both of the Witcher games. There will be some veterans that worked on the titles, but overall, this is a new team being developed within the company. It’s sounding like the game is still in the very earliest of stages, but it looks like one that we’ll want to watch out for.
