Cyberpunk 2077 Will Be Playable At E3, But Only CDPR Will Play It
- Thread starter RevengeTaken
- Start date
A port being a goty edition with all the DLCs and special enhancements specially made for next gen not doable through BC's.
Well....that certainly puts 'some' damper on the 2019 release dream, but I think it'll depend on the state of the game itself.
IMO they're still obviously trying to crunch/race towards a late 2019 release (which they miiiiiiight still announce) before delaying it to early/mid 2020.
Curious as to why no playable for the press demo tho - either the current build is 'limited' to a certain path, they're still squashing too many bugs on the non-demo path, or.....they want to make sure people get a 'good' impression and don't wander into a level 20+ area or something? I dunno.
Yeah...and then TW3 got 'delayed' back to May of next year - which in this case, points much more to a 2020 release, assuming they follow the same pattern (which, to be fair, isn't guaranteed)

Also just in general you do want your best foot forward in events like this. Giving random visitor free reign to play massive open world game without knowing where they may rush to basically means ALL content needs to be in place and very polished. Having it controlled lets them show what they know is up to level they want it to be while avoiding content that is still more heavily WIP.
This literally gives no indication for when the game will release. Not sure why people are acting like it does. I still reckon Spring 2020 at the latest.
Regardless of when it actually comes out this will be a PS5 purchase for me,I'm not really into double dipping.
If you're basing this on it not being playable E3, remember that The Witcher 3 was at no point playable before release either.

There were. But they were just that - rumors and leaks. At this point the only real source of infomation about the game are CDRP themselves.
but now open to public and hopefully new missions/locations
They gave him a beard and more hair.
He looks so much like Vasyl Lomachenko which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Last year was behind closed doors at the event, with the footage released later, but yeah.
I have have second-hand information which makes me believe, that CDPR will aim to launch Cyberpunk in october/november this year. Unfortunately I don't think I can say how or why, without outing the person who is responsible for me believing this. All I can say is, as late as yesterday this person told me "95% for a 2019 release".
Did folks play Witcher 3 / get hands on in E3 2014? before it launched that spring 2015?
I think it is possible to get this game in the Spring or Summer, and then get a nextgen Patch for it once nextgen launches

Just so there's no misinformation, there's two DIFFERENT demos.

tl;dr:
On a serious note, what was the last playable "open-world" game at E3? I think it must be a bunch of work to have to change your systems, invisibly (Or visibly) put up a bunch of barriers, turn off all the quests etc. I imagine it's just plain safer to only take players where you're pretty sure of the outcomes.
Not necessarily thinking it's coming out in 2019 but I think people are overly worried about them playing it and not you. BOTW was great because it already had a tutorial area that you could just not let people progress past. Just turn off the tower quest and Zelda and you're pretty much done.

tl;dr:
- Two gameplay presentations
- One behind closed doors for outlets and influencers
- One available publicly
- They will be different (No details on how/why)
- Both will be played by CDPR (IE: Watch them play through it, just like the last one)
- The closed-door experience (at least, maybe not the public one) will be an hour long
- No pictures or captures allowed of this one
- I'm assuming you can capture the public one but no info yet
- No pictures or captures allowed of this one

Thanks FoolsMilky sounds like they'll be on stage during the MS conference to showcase the game and maybe a trailer and also do a closed door demo which might be released at a later date like last year. Only I hope this year comes with a date and more story info/game details
Yeah np :)
Honestly it sounds like this is pretty realistic
- New trailer-ish thing
- Vague or specific release date
- Public walkthrough (Which we'll hopefully get direct footage for)
- Impressions from the private walkthrough
I just can't see this game releasing this year if they're still feeling nervous enough for closed doors.
