Development of the sequel to CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077 will begin in 2023 with pre-production once the team has wrapped and shipped the original game’s upcoming DLC, Phantom Liberty.

Adam Kiciski, president and joint CEO of CD Projekt Red, says in its recent earnings report that the team is finishing up development of the expansion currently, of which almost 350 people are working on.

Thanks to the Netflix anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, the game has had a second wind. As previously reported, Cyberpunk 2077 had more than a million people log in and, as of September 21, remained one of the top 10 most-played games on Steam.

That earnings report, which covered the third quarter of business for CD Projekt (July – September of this year), revealed that this was its best third quarter since its founding in the ‘90s.

The company brought in $54.2 million in revenue thanks to strong sales of Cyberpunk 2077, which the company will looking to replicate in its sequel.

It seems like the dark days of the game’s launch are far behind in the rearview mirror for gamers.

2023 won’t just be the start of pre-production for the next Cyberpunk, but may also bring a beloved entry in a beloved franchise to consoles. Capcom apparently plans to bring Monster Hunter Rise to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One next year.

Insider Gaming reported that the game will release January 20 on those platforms, as well as become available on Game Pass, followed by its expansion Sunbreak later in the spring. Capcom will supposedly unveil these plans at The Game Awards on December 8.

Monster Hunter Rise originally released in March 2021 for Nintendo Switch, with the game now on PC too.

What’s interesting about the news of it launching on console with Game Pass is that Xbox is supposedly working on its own Monster Hunter-like release according to a report from earlier this year.

In January, Jeff Grubb of GameSpot sister site Giant Bomb revealed that the title is codenamed Project Suerte, and is under development at Certain Affinity, a studio that has mainly done work supporting other games, including Xbox’s own Halo franchise, of which Certain Affinity is also rumored to be developing a battle royale game for its latest entry Halo Infinite.

  1. They haven't even fixed the first one yet and they expect us to believe that they will make the second one better? And if not better than atleast playable? Haha ok sure 👌 the only way I will ever get another cyberpunk game is if they give us drivable flying cars for consoles….

  2. What about the multiplayer that they are suppose to be releasing how are they talking about a sequel when the multiplayer isn’t even out yet this company makes me laugh

  3. a lot of the groundwork such as game engine and gameplay design and systems has already been done and that's a significant part of game development just chunked off right there. so this game shouldn't take as long as should come out in a more complete package as the skeleton of the game is already there. they just need to flesh it out now instead of starting from square one.

  4. I waited a year to play this on a sale and once the PS5 version was released and the glitches were largely sorted – very much glad I did; such a cool world, it’s just a same it doesn’t have the extra touches to make it feel properly lived in

  5. Horrible launch. They took a year to fix the game. It’s a decent game but has a lot to improve on. It’ kind of reminded me of Outer Wolrds. Great stuff but definitely needs to iron out some kinks in the sequel.
