'Cyberpunk 2077' Release Date Set On October 2015? CD Projekt RED To Focus On Game After 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' Release

When CD Projekt RED unveiled their new project "Cyberpunk 2077", fans can't help but wonder when the game will be available to platforms. Reports indicate that the game is aiming for an October 2015 release date.

Company CEO Marcin Iwinski sat with Gamespot, and stated that the "Witcher 3" and "Cyberpunk 2077" are being developed independently. With that said, fans can expect a shorter window time for its release.

"Cyberpunk 2077 is developed by a separate team within CD Projekt Red, so the development of Cyberpunk 2077 is not really affected," he said.

Marcin Iwinski added that some developers are working on both games at the same time.

 "In order to ship a huge RPG we do use help of certain team members between teams. It works this way between Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3," he said, before promising big things from the still largely under-wraps Cyberpunk RPG.

"We are working hard to deliver an outstanding RPG and rest assured, that all the learnings on The Witcher 3 are being applied to the Cyberpunk 2077 development," commented Iwinski.

However, CD Projekt RED are focusing all their attention on "The Witcher 3" to meet the May 19 promised release date.

"...in short, communication-wise, we are now focusing entirely on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," head of marketing and PR Michal Platkow-Gilewski said. "Everyone is working crazy hard to give gamers around the world an RPG to remember. Worry not, Cyberpunk 2077 is OK, its time will come."

Cyberpunk 2077 was first revealed way back October 2012 The game is described as a mature, futuristic sandbox-style, RPG inspired by the Cyberpunk pen-and-paper RPG system created by Mike Pondsmith. CD Projekt Red describes the game as a "multi-thread, non-linear story designed for mature players" set in the sprawling metropolis of Night City and its surroundings. Originally announced for PC, CD Projekt Red hinted at Cyberpunk 2077's possible release for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

"Cyberpunk 2077" release date is rumored to be released on October 2015.
