UPDATE 30/8/19: If you managed to miss CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 livestream earlier today, replete with its previously promised 15-minutes of gameplay, fret not; the whole thing has now been uploaded to YouTube for excitable repeat viewing and more thorough perusal.
CD Projekt Red’s new “deep dive” video (edited down from this year’s E3 and Gamescom demos) includes a closer look at the Pacifica district of Cyberpunk 2077’s Night City, and showcases two distinct play-styles: the Strong Solo build, focussed on “blunt force and instant action”, and a Netrunner build, favouring stealth, hacking and battlefield control thorough the deployment of malicious software. There’s also an appearance by two gangs – the Animals and the Voodoo Boys – and glimpses of Keanu Reeves’ character, Johnny Silverhand.
CD Projekt Red notes that while the footage, which you can see below, has been edited so as to contain as few spoilers as possible, it does still reveal characters and locations from deep within Cyberpunk 2077’s storyline – so if you want to come to the experience completely fresh when it launches on PS4, Xbox One, and PC next year, you should obviously give it a wide berth.
