Cyberpunk 2077 sequel has now entered Pre-production so here is what we know by far
Game is going to be called “Cyberpunk 2”, is in development and is codenamed "Project Orion."
Will feature two maps Night City and “Chicago gone wrong” city
It is releasing sometime after The Witcher 4 and will run on Unreal Engine 5!
The game will maintain a first-person perspective, like the first game, and will likely feature a crafting system that builds upon the simplified system introduced in a 2023 update for Cyberpunk 2077.

Hope we get 2 or more expansions this time around. Please have a smooth launch
Can’t wait to play it in 15 years
I need to start saving for my next PC.
I look forward to playing it when I’m 60.
UE5 😳
See you in 10 years. Hopefully with way less bugs this time and a finished game
Maybe the turnaround time will be quicker since the graphics engine is built?
i just need more romance options, please cd project, please
I sincerely hope production goes well. I’d rather not see Project Orion have the same rocky launch that 2077 did.
nooo not unreal engine 5 ):
That better be another placeholder name
Cant wait to play it in 2077
How long do I need to wait if i want them to release all 1-2076 so i can play them chronologically?
Wake me up in 10 years when a pre rendered trailer comes out and 5 years after that when an in game trailer comes out and another 2 years after that when it releases to mediocre reviews and everyone saying it’s a downgrade from 2 years prior.
Is the name and the two maps confirmed?
I’m hoping they learned with 2077’s launch. Excited for it all the same.
I think it’s just a placeholder name. Maybe we’ll get the real name sometime before release. UE5 is a big red flag tho, but I am hopeful that they will optimize the shit out of it, after how the launch of 2077 was.
Just got a 9070xt and now im like should i have held off for a little longer….
See y’all in 2077 lol
I still believe it will come out in 2031 probably. It’s not like they have to create everything from scratch they will surely copy alot of things from the 1st game.
I hope I see more men character
Wow, from 2077 to 2? Shit gonna be lit, roman empire and stuff
Which means Witcher 4 is basically in final production/debugging phases I guess.
Pre-prod still means they are just setting up organizing the development, i doubt much outside of overall story, major side quest and characters are written.
I hope the usage of unreal engine will speed up development and the next game won’t take all that long to make because they’re not fiddling around with an engine they had to make from scratch that was a bit of a mess. With the engine change they can focus more on content and storylines and character development and all that stuff. People forget that most of what took so damn long was they were using an inhouse engine that was also kind of a mess and the game took so long because of that. So yeah it’s actually likely it won’t take nearly as long. Idk maybe 2027 will be the year? We could hope right?
Let them cook.
Go on with your lives in the meantime
I wonder if they’ll add multiplayer to this one.
Pre-production. So eight years until we get a game. Great. I wonder if I will still be alive to play it. I’ll be old as fuck.
Im looking forward to how CDPR handle UE5, knowing what they did on their own engine with CyberP2077 ended up [eventually] an extremely slick piece that looked amazing. They wont stand for a badly optimised mess that other studios pump out.
I wonder who our new stars for VA will be, Mr Reeves and Mr Alba set a pretty high bar but CDPR now has that CyberP money who knows! Crafting system tweaks would be welcome, only modding iconic “properly” but still with limitations was, less than amazing, so hopefully we will get some real customisation options.
Looking forward to this more than GTA6 tbfh
Unreal engine 5? Wonder why they’re switching engines. Also since night city is still going to be part of the map, I wonder how many iconic weapons will be making a comeback, even if we don’t play as V and the game has a time jump by a couple years, I don’t see why weapons like Lizzie and guts wouldn’t be in night city still
Must stay alive, must stay alive, must stay alive….
Good reason to not die for the next 10 years.
The good thing is that apparently most of the time on cyberpunk 2077 was world building and trying to figure how they want it. Now we have a base game and story to build off of so it should be quicker
see yall in 2053
“Will feature two maps Night City and “Chicago Gone Wrong” city” – BS. Pondsmith said that NightCity will have its part in the story, but it does not have to be explorable map – it may be some flashback cinematic, single mission with limited area, like one mission taking place in Liberty City in GTA San Andreas.
I want to thank CDPR in advance: if I ever become seriously suicidal in the next years I can tell myself “Nah choom, we’re not missing the Orion launch. Songbird romance? Full body conversion? Who knows, we have to be there!”
I’m 47 yo. Hope I get to play it before I die.
Cyberpunk 2 being the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 sounds a little lame. Even something like “Cyberpunk Orion” is way better
