Cyberpunk 2077has been on a lot of people’s minds lately. The recent release of thePhantom LibertyDLCand the big2.0 updatehas brought the game back into the fore (not that it ever truly left). However, it looks as though CD Projekt Red is ready to move onto something else.
In a recent interview withPC Gamer, director Gabe Amatangelo said both the DLC and 2.0 patch represent the “last big updates” forCyberpunk 2077. While the studio will still do “a little something more,” the team won’t be bringing massive overhauls to it going forward.
Instead, CDPR is looking to move onto the follow-up. In the interview, Amatangelo says the developer’s next project will be “Cyberpunk 2. Or ‘Orion,’ I should say, whatever we end up naming it.”
Not abandoned entirely
It does look like CDPR won’t abandonCyberpunk 2077just yet. There will likely be hotfixes and smaller updates in the future. However, it seems the company is now interested in new projects.
It’s going to be a busy time for the Polish studio over the next few years. As well as a follow-up toCyberpunk, we’re also gettingnew entries in theWitcherseries, as well as an officialremake of the firstWitchergame.
The recent updates have definitely been a boon for CD Projekt Red’s dystopian RPG. At the time of writing,Cyberpunk 2077is thesecond-best selling game on Steam.Phantom Libertyis the third-best. The only thing beating them is the recently releasedCounter-Strike 2.
