Without a doubt, CD Projekt Red’s reveal of Cyberpunk 2077‘s cinematic trailer was one of the major highlights during Microsoft’s Xbox E3 2018 press conference, as it gave fans a closer look as to what kind of story one might expect from the retro-futuristic action-RPG. Of course, it’s safe to say that this has led to fans craving actual gameplay footage, but there’s no telling when such assets will be revealed to the public. Nevertheless, the developer is keen to discuss the forthcoming project, with one team member sharing details about combat and weapons, saying The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt helped with the battle system in the new game. This much was revealed during a recent interview held between GameSpot and CD Projekt Red’s associate design director Kyle Rowley, with the latter stating that Cyberpunk 2077 will feature both ranged and melee combat, and their mechanics are rooted in lessons learned from The Witcher 3.

Cyberpunk 2077 Devs Hid Cheeky “We Leave Greed to Others” Message In New Reveal
During today’s reveal of Cyberpunk 2077 at Microsoft’s press E3 2018 press conference livestreamed from Los Angeles, CD Projekt RED hid a small and cheeky message. Just before the airing of the trailer, the screen went back, and a “hacking” sequence began. Within the lines of code showcased on the screen we read “w3 l34V3 9R33d 2 0TH3r2” which transliterates as “We leave greed to others.” This is a reference to a declaration made by the developer last year, in which they promised a “no bullshit” approach to the pricing of the game, mentioning that gamers would get what they pay for, which is a “huge single player, open world, story-driven RPG.” The message ended with “We leave greed to others,” which was an obvious poke to other developers that focus on recurring revenues and microtransaction-based business models.

During CD Projekt Red’s latest meeting of shareholders, company president and joint CEO Adam Kicinski revisited the incident, stating that the stolen assets were held for ransom, which resulted in the studio’s decision to take action. According to Kicinski, CD Projekt Red refused to capitulate to the thieves’ demands and would not pay the ransom by taking an undisclosed course of action instead. While the company’s president and joint CEO didn’t state as much, this likely resulted in the Cyberpunk 2077 files in question being recovered due to the fact that no assets leaked. As a result of this ordeal, the developer has vowed to … [Read more...] about CyberPunk 2077 Dev ‘Took Action’ After Stolen Asset Ransom
