Everyone seems to be curious about wanting to know the announcement date of Cyberpunk 2077 since the game is very near release. If you’re already wondering about when it was announced since it seems like ages ago, you’re not wrong. Check out the Cyberpunk 2077 announcement date right here.
When Was Cyberpunk 2077 Announced?
Cyberpunk 2077 was announced by CD Projekt RED in May 2012 (that’s over eight years ago) and the first trailer of the game dropped in the following year. CDPR had been working on this title even before Witcher 3: Blood and Wine released.
A small team was dedicated to the development of the project which kept on growing as things started to catch pace. For an all-inclusive game that’s set in a dystopian future, Cyberpunk 2077 has been by far the most ambitious project taken by CDPR while basing the setting of the game on Mike Pondsmith’s Cyberpunk franchise.
Other inspirations of the game came from pop culture films and tv shows especially Blade Runner, Ghost In The Shell, and Deus Ex game. These have been credited with being the basis of the game and CDPR hope to bring all the elements of the above mentioned together to create a never seen before experience.
During the production of this game, there were a lot of hiccups. The main one to mention was when the preliminary designs were leaked and CDPR were held to ransom but they decided to not comply.
Cyberpunk 2077 is not only one of the most anticipated games of 2020 but it kind of feels like a cornerstone that has the potential to inspire and breathe in a new era for gaming. It will be exciting to see what this game has in store for us.
