Cyberpunk 2077 comes later: between death threats and vacation plans

Last night’s message is harsh: Cyberpunk 2077 needs to be renewed again and won’t appear until December 10th. – CD Projekt simply has to prepare and test too many versions. In the aftermath of the announcement, there were nasty comments.

Cyberpunk 2077: death threats against developers

Andrzej Zawadzki, Senior Game Designer at CD Projekt Red, posted a much appreciated tweet. So he understands that the renewed postponement causes anger and disappointment among the fans. But it is “absolutely unacceptable and wrong” to send death threats to developers. Even at the CDPR only people would work. Other CDPR developers also joined the discussion. Miles Tost, Senior Level Designer, talks about the fact that they have been working on the game with passion for five years and that the postponement is not for fun. You only have one attempt to successfully publish the game.

One of the things that caused confusion was that the internal communication at CD Projekt Red obviously has room for improvement. So yesterday it was more or less confirmed during the day that everything was fine on the release date. However, CDPR is a listed company, which is why it is virtually impossible for legal reasons that all employees are always informed in advance. says Fabian Döhla of CDPR. For example, those responsible for the game’s Twitter account simply didn’t know there would be another postponement, until official information arrived. They too are moving in this direction Testimony of a game journalistwho claims to have heard from CDPR developers that most employees only learned of the move in the news.

Overall, there is also a lot of understanding for CDPR in the gaming industry, but also light criticism. Geoff Keighly (The Game Awards) questionswhether the term “gone gold” should not be withdrawn in the face of this change. Cyberpunk 2077 (buy now 58,19 €) in any case he can no longer be nominated for the Oscars of the Games. Creative Director for SW Squadrons, Ian Frazier, is a bit annoyed, since he had registered an extra vacation period for the game (like some PCGH readers in the forum), but obviously Cyberpunk 2077 is just a game and wouldn’t justify violent reactions like death threats.

Overall, the question arises as to whether CDPR has not detected something with the many game versions of Cyberpunk 2077. At least the version for Google Stadia was actually expected at a later date, it has only recently been confirmed that the Stadia version will also appear alongside the other versions.
