Cyberpunk 2077 has blessed us with but one CG trailer which released all the way back in 2013 - and that's all that we've seen of the game so far. With that in mind, you can probably understand why we're sceptical of this report from Gamereactor Germany, which states that developer CD Projekt Red may want to launch the gritty role-playing title in 2016.
As much as we'd love to be playing Cyberpunk 2077 by this time next year, we can't see it actually happening. Even if we assume that the game's been in full development since The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt launched, the Polish studio has previously gone on record saying that it won't be talking about its next title in any great detail until 2017. And, although we can certainly see Cyberpunk 2077 showing up in trailers and at press conferences in 2016, we'd seriously recommend curving your expectations, because we reckon that this one isn't due out for a long time - especially since Geralt's final adventure is coming next year.
Do you think that there's even the slightest chance that Cyberpunk 2077 will launch in 2016? Tell us all about those flying pigs in the comments section below.

I doubt it but it's going to be a day one buy for me when it does come out.
Not played Witcher 3 yet got too many other RPG's on the go but judging by the great job they have done on previous games I wll definatly get this title
This looks really really good though!
Doubt it, but the very idea is super exciting
Considering how much they pump into Witcher, I think it'll be like P5 all over again, hype it to release next year, then "oh unexpected delay till summer of 2017."
I'd love love love to see more of it, some actual gameplay or even another CG trailer to build the world some more. This game looks 100% my kind of thing so I'm very excited to see more. An actual release next year seems, yeah, really improbable. it'd be nice, and stranger things have happened, but if you want a game as well crafted and vibrant as the witcher's then expect to wait another couple years at least.
I'm going to have to quit work at this rate, next year is just ridiculous for top quality games
Depends on how many resources they have been dumping into it behind the scenes. Developers routinely tell fibs about game release dates and whether they are even working on them. For all we know they could have been working on it for years already, and with the Witcher money rolling in, it may be ramped up significantly
@Neolit
You should at least try 3
@Neolit I never played the first too but from my understanding they weren't open world like this one. The mission structure is very similar to games like Fallout, though I have to say the Witchers main story is much better and I love Fallout. Side quests are fun too and many including the main ones have far reaching consequences, some of which you're not aware of until much later. The Bloody Barren sub plot is one of the best I've ever come across. It's a beautiful looking game and the only real downsides are the contracts aren't that entertaining and whilst there is a lot of ground to explore I don't find it anywhere near as rewarding as Fallout 4 whether it be for those untold stories or just loot in general. Awesome game though and a potential easter egg for Cyberpunk
Not gonna happen.
Really excited for the game but can't see it coming out next year.
It would be great to see it next year but they surely cant be near the end of development yet after spending so much (justified) time on W3?
I would like to think they wont rush this release without making sure its fully polished & I cant wait!
