Since its secondary announcement at E3 2018, we’ve eagerly counted down the days until we can play Cyberpunk 2077. The more videos we watch about this upcoming game, the more we crave to finally get our hands on CD PROJEKT RED’s upcoming Cyberpunk RPG. With just a few weeks until the official launch of Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red has released Night City Wire Episode 5. Night City Wire Episode 5 focuses on Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay, Johnny Silverhand, and the music of Night City. These latest videos have only solidified that desire. So what new things were shown in Episode 5 of the Night City Wire?
In the first video, the world gets a deeper look at Johnny Silverhand. The Man, Myth, and Legends is rumored to be dead but has a mysterious connection to the player. The trailer alludes to a deeper connection between the two beyond societal collapse.
The second trailer gives a behind the scenes look at the process it took to create Keanu Reeves‘ Johnny Silverhand’s mannerism. The trailer shows how CD Projekt Red was able to capture Reeves movements, facial movements, and mannerisms.
Gameplay
When it comes to Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay, CD Projekt Red had this to say.
The video features over 5 minutes of in-game footage thrusting gamers deep into the most dangerous megalopolis of the year 2077 — Night City. Never-before-seen interactions and action scenes are shown, revealing details about the story, as well as characters — including their backgrounds and motivations. In addition to discussing the primary objective of the game’s protagonist, the up and coming cyber-enhanced mercenary going by the name V, part of the trailer is also devoted to giving players a fresh glimpse into character development and some of the side activities they will be able to indulge in.
Now the gameplay trailer is less about gameplay and more about what to expect; it also explains that there are multiple options for the player to choose between. How will you spend your time in Cyberpunk 2077? Will you be a lawless mercenary or a warrior of justice? Choose how you want to live in Night City. Will you be the change or cause society to collapse?
Cyberpunk 2077 is scheduled to be released on December 10th, 2020; it will be available on Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4 on that date. The Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 version are scheduled to be released in 2021.
