Remember when Cyberpunk 2077 was supposed to launch in April? Those were the days, back just before the world had completely fallen apart. The game was pushed to September, but just a few months later, it was delayed again until the 19th November -- a release date that appears to have stuck.
Many nervous onlookers have been wondering whether Cyberpunk 2077 will be delayed yet again. After all, the coronavirus pandemic has wreaked havoc on the games industry. But CD Projekt Red remains confident that its open world RPG will finally hit that promised date.
During the company's most recent investor's call, president Adam Kiciński confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077 is almost ready for release. "So yes, we are confirming and, well, actually today we started preparing for the final certification, so we’re very close," he said.
Final certification is when a game is certified for release by various quality assurance companies and platform holders, like Sony. It's one of the last processes that a project has to go through before it can launch. Let's hope that everything goes to plan.

Ah, this is good news.
I feel like we can all get much more hyped for Cyberpunk when it looks like the release date is finally going to stick.
Great news. I pre-order it, so can't wait to play it. 😉
Really looking forward to what CDPR have done with 2077. Probably my most anticipated confirmed title for 2020. Really glad they're in the final stretches.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla is out 2 days before...........I am pessimistic bout this one
It will be full on party time when it goes gold.
Good news, but I won’t be able to play on launch day because 17 Novermeber is also World Premature Baby Day, a day I will never forget as my daughter was born 3-months premature on that exact day.
So yeah, gotta keep reminding myself that her birthday is important than Cyberpunk and I just gotta be patient until the 18th!
I look forward to playing it in 2021 then!
@BearsEatBeets
How do insert GIF. On this comment section?! How
@Kienda that's...uncanny, I'm a preemie on the 18th. Never knew that, I learned something today.
@Ridwaano right click and copy image address on the gif you want to post. Then type
(img)paste image address(/img)
but replace the ( ) brackets with [ ] ones.
It's all good news, but I plan myself to play it on next-gen, when the true "next-gen update" will be avalaible.
Still, I already love this game.
I can hardly wait, it's finally coming.
Very much looking forward to this game, think I'm going to hold fire though and get the PS5 version. Surely there won't be a huge gap between launches.
Not hyped, but the game does look great. I’ll be getting it on PS5 for sure. Just sick of hearing my PS4 whine.
Finally! Video games takes too much time to make it's unreal.
@BearsEatBeets
I'm more excited for this one game than buying a PS5. Two more months!
@Ridwaano Fixed it for you — just remember to put (img) and (/img) at the beginning and end of your gif's URL — but replace the normal brackets with square ones [ ] and you're good to go.
Day one for me if there's 60 fps patch for ps5 😃
I kinda wish this was going to be delayed. Feels like there's going to be far too much happening in November.
Strangely I think I’m actually more hyped for the new Watch Dogs. I platinumed 2 a couple of days ago so just want more of the same. I think I’d either wait for PS5 for Cyberpunk or get it on PC like I did with The Witcher 3.
I pre-ordered on June 10 2019 heck yeah I'm ready. I was ready when I first saw the trailer in 2013.
@get2sammyb Very good chance this will be my first game on PS5. Even though it will still be a PS4 title It will benefit from faster loading time and maybe faster frame rates.
@BearsEatBeets Your username is genius, love it.
interested in this game, but very concerned about base ps4 performance. how can an open world game that looks this good with so much going on under the hood perform well on a base ps4? and by "well", i just want it to stick to a locked 30fps with minimal drops. considering all the issues the witcher 3 had, i am skeptical. it would be worth waiting to play this on ps5 no doubt.
@Pat_trick
@JohnKarnes Yeah I have it pre-ordered on PS4 but think it's highly likely I'll be putting it in a PS5 rather than my PS4. Maybe I'll save my second playthrough for when they do the full next-gen update next year.
I thought it came out on 19th November, not 17th.
@Kienda
Don't worry, you can celebrate your child's birthday, have a whole day to recover and still play it on launch day, the 19th November!
@LiamCroft why 2021? You got a big backlog or you waiting for the PS5 version?
@I_Like_It thats unlikely from CDPR. Its a huge open world so surely there'll be some bugs but they value quality high enough imo
Fantastic, can’t wait!
But going with PC. Not sure my launch PS4 will do it justice. And seems like it will be a RayTracing showcase on PC like CONTROL was.
Can't wait to finally go bonkers with this gem! If only it could be played in VR, that kinda feels like a missed opportunity for something this big and captivating.. Now busy with Skyrim VR, never bothered playing the pancake version and i'm glad i didn't. Just travelling and watching the weather change and gazing at the northernlight at night makes me feel enchanted. Not to mention the countless caves and dungeons that feel really claustrophobic and terrifying in VR. CP2077 in VR.. A man can dream, right? 🙃
@ShogunRok is there any information if cyberpunk is getting a free update to the new generation consoles?
I think this is a big issue, because it will certainly affect the first sales (or at least, I think. It will affect mine for sure..)
@LowTech Yeah, it's been confirmed that there'll be a free PS5 upgrade in 2021 if you own the game on PS4. We don't know whether there'll be a standalone PS5 version yet, however.
Glad to hear there should be no more delays, one of my most anticipated PS4 games.
