Cyberpunk 2077 PS5/Xbox Series X Versions Will "Come Later," So Don't Expect Them At Launch

@s1taz4a3l: I suspect, rather, it's because CDPR does it right. They don't just chase $$ without putting in the work to maintain the integrity of their IP. I'm sure it was always planned as a next-gen title, regardless of what they represent. It'd be completely stupid not to. However, they're also not going to release a lazy port. They're going to take the time to learn the system capabilities, optimize it, maybe make certain enhancements, and then release it. Could be wrong, but I doubt it.

@s1taz4a3l: CD Project Red said months ago that Cyberpunk wasn't a next gen game actually. This is just the first confirmation that they plan on making a next gen version at some point.

@reznik00: The Witcher 3 has it's fair share of big flaws in the gameplay design (be it combat, exploration or role-playing elements), absolutely - But dude, it's side-stories and world are definitely some of the very best in its class. It isn't loved by so many people because of nothing. Even by some of the non-casual gamers that actually care about gameplay depth (because the stories can be so good and world so immersive, even they can overlook the flaws most of the time).

It is a good game at the very least (even Witcher 1 and 2 were). Give credit where credit is due.

@reznik00: Uhh Witcher 3 is pretty damn good, sounds like its just not for you

@systemoverload: There is lots to do to get it upgraded for the next-gen.
Textures and geometry can be pushed further for optimization, architecture has some similarities but there's a lot more features to take advantage of (like optimizing load times, which could be a different system altogether), there's probably a better system to allow you to load part of the game to start playing sooner (instead of waiting the full download) which will take dev time to work out, etc.

Unless you don't want a proper, genuine port lol

@eli150: they will......well on Microsoft anyway 2020 sony as usual haven't confirmed it. What the article is on about is full next gen update like what happened with gta.

@hardwenzen: Waste of time unless you have a top of the line PC. My 8GB RAM gaming PC I built in 2014 wouldn't cut it for Cyberpunk 2077 I know cause it struggles to run RDR2 yet it is able to Witcher 3 in ultra settings. For the likes of Cyberpunk and next gen I need 16GB or more ram, a new graphics card and a new cpu really.

@hardwenzen: Lol at people jerking off to their PC's specs. And playing games purely for the graphics. But maybe it's the work devices that are still the standard gaming periphery on PCs that make games more enjoyable for some folks there as well. Nothing better than to play a modern game using a keyboard made for typing.

@hardwenzen: Im going to play it on PC but some people are just used to play on console. For them, It will probably just be a great experience playing this game again on next gen
