As CD Projekt staffs up for its various projects in development, the boss of the company has said it is considering adding multiplayer to the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

The Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, codenamed Orion<\/a>, is currently in the conceptual phase. Speaking to Reuters<\/a>, joint CEO Adam Badowski said CD Projekt expects to have about 80 people working on it by the end of the year. Co-CEO Michal Nowakowski said CD Projekt is considering including multiplayer in Cyberpunk 2, but wouldn\u2019t divulge details.<\/p>\n

Cyberpunk 2077\u2019s multiplayer mode was cancelled<\/a> due to the game’s turbulent launch, with development shifting focus to turning the embattled project around following its disastrous launch. It’s easy to imagine a Cyberpunk multiplayer mode, though, perhaps as a sci-fi take on the eternally popular GTA Online.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

We know next to nothing about the next Cyberpunk at this stage, although last month CD Projekt Red narrative director Philipp Weber said it may feature grander branching storylines<\/a> determined by the player’s starting life path, which were Street Kid, Corpo, and Nomad in Cyberpunk 2077.<\/p>\n

Key gameplay decisions like whether it will be first or third-person are still being made<\/u><\/a>. The original Cyberpunk 2077 has finally received its last big update though<\/u><\/a>, so attention has now turned towards its sequel at CD Projekt Red.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, it\u2019s full steam ahead on the next Witcher game. Badowski said CD Projekt would like to have around 400 people working on the project, codenamed Polaris<\/a>, by the middle of 2024. Reuters reports analysts predict the new Witcher game will launch in 2026 or 2027.<\/p>\n

As for the contentious issue of using AI during development, Nowakowski is quoted as saying CD Projekt believes it \u201ccan help improve certain processes in game production, but not replace people.\u201d<\/p>\n

And finally, Badowski insisted CD Projekt had learned its lesson from the launch of Cyberpunk, with better production processes now in place. “We believe that in the future we’ll avoid a premiere like the one we faced with Cyberpunk 2077”, Badowski said.<\/p>\n
