According to the official Facebook page of developer CD Projekt RED, Cyberpunk 2077 will not be exclusive to GOG store. GOG is a popular online store run by the makers of The Witcher series and Cyberpunk 2077.

Previously, the developer confirmed that the game will not be exclusive to Epic Games Store.

CD Projekt RED Cyberpunk Apology Comes After Inappropriate Twitter Joke
A CD Projekt RED Cyberpunk apology has come out of the game’s Twitter after the official Cyberpunk 2077 Twitter account tweeted a joke that many people thought was inappropriate earlier today. The joke, a stereotypical “Did you just assume my gender” joke, brought a lot of critical comments on the account. While Cyberpunk 2077 takes place almost 50 years in the future, that doesn’t mean that current standards have moved at the same pace. Attitudes may be far more liberal and accepting in the future, but these days when transgender people are still discriminated against, the “Did you just assume my gender” joke can be offensive to many, hence the backlash and the CD Projekt RED Cyberpunk apology. This isn’t the first time a game has gotten criticism for taking a current or past concept and making it work in the setting. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided during the lead-up to its own release made use of the term “mechanical apartheid”, … [Read more...] about CD Projekt RED Cyberpunk Apology Comes After Inappropriate Twitter Joke
E3 2018: CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 Is Even More Ambitious Than You Think It Is
CD Projekt Red's next game, Cyberpunk 2077, is a massive departure from the developer's previous efforts on The Witcher series. Instead of lush forests, picturesque fields, and towering mountains, the devs are creating a world set in the concrete jungle of Northern California in the distant future. Unlike a lot of fiction focusing on a darker future, Cyberpunk 2077 aspires to move away from grimdark and towards a more exuberant but equally cynical vision for a future where capitalism and technology has run amok.Inspired and influenced by the original Cyberpunk 2020 pen and paper RPG, 2077 extrapolates many of the themes and iconography while capitalizing on the developer's skillset for crafting dense and visually rich environments. We saw a near hour-long gameplay demo behind closed doors at E3 2018, showcasing many of the game's systems and locales, and came out impressed by the scope of CD Projekt Red's ambitious project.Set in an alternate universe 2077, you'll take on the role of … [Read more...] about E3 2018: CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 Is Even More Ambitious Than You Think It Is
CD Projekt Wants Cyberpunk 2077 to Become a Blockbuster Franchise
When CD Projekt Red first announced Cyberpunk 2077 back in 2012 the studio set the gaming world on fire. With just a short teaser trailer, the game became one of the most anticipated titles in development. Six years later and aside from the assurance it will be bigger than The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we still know very little about the game, let alone when we can play it. Still, the studio shows no signs lowering expectations. In speaking today at the Pareto Securities Gaming Seminar, CD Projekt discussed its goals and expectations with regards to Cyberpunk 2077, with CEO Adam Kicinski describing it as “more ambitious that Witcher 3” and a new blockbuster franchise. “Cyberpunk is our new Witcher 3, but even more ambitious.

We believe it’s very appealing to players, not only RPG players but this is a true RPG, like … [Read more...] about CD Projekt Wants Cyberpunk 2077 to Become a Blockbuster Franchise
