Cyberpunk 2077
Platform: Available on PS5 and Xbox Series X
Release Date: September 17, 2020
Night City is a cyberpunk, supercity. A place where people are obsessed with power, body modification, and living forever. The player takes on the role of V, a mercenary whose goal is obtaining an implant that is supposedly the key to immortality. It features numerous skill acquisition options, in things like combat, weaponry, and hacking and despite its bleak setting and action-y trailers, you can play through the game either lethally or non-lethally.
Possibly one of the most hyped games in recent years. CD Projekt Red’s latest game will not only be released for the latest generation, but for the upcoming one as well. With the purchase of the game for any past generation console the customer will receive a free copy for the next console which is part of Microsoft’s new Smart Delivery feature which allows players to upgrade their version of the game.
Describing the hype and anticipation for this game is almost impossible. With their presentation at E3 to having the legendary Keanu Reeves bring it out and even be a character is something else for gamers. This will undoubtedly take the world by storm not only with the game, but with one of the best studios in the industry.
