Now, CD Projekt Red is working on what comes next. The studio has expanded drastically and is working on multiple games at once including a new trilogy of Witcher games and a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077. It looks like The Witcher 4 will release the soonest and is already pretty deep into development while the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel seems to be just getting off the ground. It’s so early in development that CD Projekt Red can’t fully commit to whether or not it will even have a multiplayer offering. However, CD Projekt CEO Adam Badowski did say in an interview with Reuters that while he can’t discuss specifics on multiplayer elements in the Cyberpunk sequel, he did note that they are being considered. As for what that might look like, no one really knows.
Cyberpunk 2077 was expected to have a multiplayer component at some point with some believing it may be like GTA Online, but those efforts were pulled back on after the rocky launch. It’s likely fixing the game became an all-hands on deck effort and multiplayer became less of a priority. The game’s credits still credits a multiplayer team, so it was clearly something that CD Projekt was working on. Cyberpunk 2077 is not expected to get any more major updates, so the next possible chance for something like that would be in the sequel. However, that’s still years away and the game is in such early development, that CD Projekt isn’t even sure if it will happen or not.
