Since Orion is a sequel, Night City can be a safe bet.

Night City or Los Angeles

I’m sure CDPR will do an amazing job but I can’t imagine a Cyberpunk set outside of NC

I really hope it takes place (at least partly) in Tokyo.

I hope to see a game in Japan, or even in Soviet Union.

Night City or could be heading near the roots of Arasaka in Japan?

To paraphrase Henry Ford, it can be set anywhere – as long as that place is Night City. 😉

I wanna go to the moon. But realistically, it’s gonna be Night City.

New Detroit like that of RoboCop but with the flair of Night City

I think Night City is the most likely. And I hope it is!

It’ll be Night City and one or two other smaller locations where DLCs take you outside the city, like a lunar colony or some place in the deep wastelands.
BatVisible31
Yeah but the problem with other cities, is that Night City is the only city like it. Because it’s technically a free city, you’re not going to get that feeling and that experience that you’ll get another cities. I think there should be an extension of NC but still being based around that area just opened up more, similar to how Dogtown is.

Night City. The question is when.
luvallppl
probably Night city but they’ll probably make the map different
Deeeewit
Night City. It’s the heart of the Cyberpunk universe. All they need to do is built upon the current map. Make buildings explorable, add more interactive locations (restaurants where you can actually eat, malls, shops etc), expand the metro and make it more interactive (move around, add stations), add buses, more appartments etc.
Ideally I’d like to see a few other locations where you can fast travel to like in the Fallout games where the main cities are Washington, Vegas, Boston, but you can still visit nearby locations like the Pitt, Point Lookout, the Divide and so on. For Cyberpunk these could be the outer colonies like the Moon or the orbital stations.

Night City. I don’t see a reason why it would be anywhere else. Cyberpunk is basically NC. Maybe the character can travel for a DLC.
From a development standpoint, it allows you to reuse some assets.

Night City or New York since those are the 2 cities with the most lore
Overpowered_Lv1boss
Idk about new locations (maybe like Washington in 2077) but I hope that they also include night city as an end game bonus content thing
EvenHornierOnMain
Considering how important Night City is for the overall lore and world of Cyberpunk, my best guess is that we could travel between space and Night City.

Surprise! It’s an RTS between the Corps, the NUSA, and the Free States with a map spanning North America

Detroit. Arguably worse than night city

Tokyo 🤤

It should still be night city but in order to make it feel different enough I think it should be set in the past

Obviously Night City.
It would be fun if they expanded it, I think there’s a lot of room north that they could organically add city, and they could add stuff in the badlands.
One thing I think would be fun, is if they expanded the badlands, let us leave the NC borders, then added either LA or San Francisco to the map (not to scale obviously).
They could have it set up that Night City is a “Free City” with its really loose laws and corruption. The Badlands are completely lawless, maybe cops don’t ever come. But then in NUSA terrible it’s no guns, no lethal cyberware, no quickhacks, or you get swarmed by police. It’d add a lot of variety.

My backyard , its practically a cyberpunk dystopia
Reaper-Leviathan
If it’s just NC again I wonder if they’ll make it 1:1 with the original and expand it or if they’ll completely remake it from the ground up with only key locations remaining similar
TrueNova332
It’s still going to be in Night City though I do hope that sense they’re shifting cyberpunk into UE5 that they’ll have more locations we can go to even if it requires a loading screen like being able to see what Washington DC looks like in the Cyberpunk universe
Strongman_Walsh
Definitely NC but there’s prolly other locations too, I was thinking abt it a while ago but anyone would see it as lazy to just reuses NC without any major changes or other available locations
FraserYT
The main location is always going to be Night city, but I’d love a large-scale heist in cyberspace, although I don’t know how that would work in practice.
DifferencePretend
Everything cyberpunk is gonna be set in night city but with it being updated and expanded each time.

Tokyo would be dope. Call it Neo Tokyo or Night Tokyo. Make it the center of technologic revolution or something

I hope it’s Japan or Europe would be a good location for it.
MukimukiMaster
I wouldn’t mind at all playing in night city again if they even better optimize it for performance. Utilize the hundreds of places that didn’t have a gig, job, or whatever. And add more verticality and more customization of weapons, vehicles, and apartments, I would return to Night City.
pichael289
Night city in 10 years. That’s the singular location of all the cyberpunk campaigns.
retromexicat
My impression after Phantom Liberty and “The Tower” ending is we will return to Night City but with a lot of changes. 2 years seem to have changed the city and people a lot. Now, I don’t know how many years apart is Project Orion going to be set in, but I imagine it would be enough for a lot to have changed. We’re going to have some iconic places remain but I do expect a completely changed city.

New york city!

Night city, of course. I can imagine they make the city bigger this time around
ComprehensiveSalad50
Night City but the real question is what year. 2099 is my guess, not too far in to the future so that the tech in 2077 can be improved upon but nothing ridiculous. An expanded city would be great, building out into the badlands for new areas, having some current areas become run down even more than now. I think the story needs to focus on the threat or just the start of a new corporate war.

a news site in game talks about a cancelled highway connecting NC and LA so…maybe they could reopen that?

Also need V( preferably Fem V ) to come back as a 2nd playable character or atleast as a side mission .
