CD Projekt have just wrapped up The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine, the final expansion to the Witcher series for at least the next six years. As CD Projekt fans will understand, creating huge titles that maintain a high quality is a time consuming process, which is why Cyberpunk 2077 will not be at E3 this year.
In an interview with Eurogamer, CD Projekt co-founder Marcin Iwinski told the website not to expect Cyberpunk 2077 at E3. “It might happen that we will be at E3 and we will show something at E3, but I just want to make it clear it’s not Cyberpunk,” said Iwinski. ”We still have a lot of work to do with Cyberpunk.”
Eurogamer speculates the ‘thing’ CD Projekt will announce at E3 will be “a new type of video game format previously unexplored by the studio”. Their reasoning behind this is that the game (or ‘thing’ as Eurogamer say) was mentioned in CD Projekt’s recent annual report.
Cyberpunk 2077 is not scheduled to release until 2018 at the earliest. Fortunately, there’s plenty of content in The Witcher 3 to keep you entertained for a long period of time. Cyberpunk 2077 was first shown off back in May 2012, there’s been very little to see of Cyberpunk 2077 aside from a two minute teaser trailer (no in-game footage).
