Cyberpunk 2077 Dev Asks Players Not To Spoil Story & Gameplay Until Launch

While the spread-out releasetimes can certainly be a little confusing, the developer is doing its best to communicate and clarify exactly when the game can be downloaded and played. It's a testament to the growing, near-uncontrollable hype for such an ambitious first-person RPG, so eagerly anticipated that CD Projekt Red has teamed up with Twitter for a countdown celebration of the game's release . More importantly, by allowing some preloads already with others only days away, there is now no doubt that _Cyberpunk 2077 **** _ will release on December 10. Proba

PC and Google Stadia players can get a slight head start playing **Cyberpunk 2077 ** after developer CD Projekt Red released specific preload and release times for gamers around the globe. Cyberpunk 2077 is arguably the most anticipated release of the year, years after its original teaser trailer dropped as the studio decided to focus on the highly-acclaimed The Witcher III: Wild Hunt . After a troubled development cycle that resulted in multiple delays and death threats being sent to the developers , the game is finally set to release this Thursday - and even earlier than that for some lucky play

The release of a major game like this is always an exciting and busy time for video game fans. To make matters more complicated, Cyberpunk 2077 is launching during the infancy of a brand new console generation. In order to make this console divide easier for players, CD Projekt Red is issuing a day one update that will let PS5 players experience the game on next-gen technology. The technical specifications of the game are something that a lot of fans have been wondering about. After all, given the game's bombastic, high-tech setting of Night City, it's understandable that players will want to make sure their various machines can handle the neon-plastered dystopian glory. One fan on Reddit used an accidental early copy of the game to reveal that it has separate modes for performance and quality , with different emphases on frame rate and graphical resolution respectiv

Unfortunately, not all aspects of the game's visual presentation are worth getting excited about. A Game Informer correspondent has issued a PSA to alert fans about certain elements that do not play well with epilepsy, having encountered at least one seizure herself while playing. General triggers were identified from the red glitching visual effect that pops up frequently throughout the story progression, as well as flickering pale blue lights that appear when talking to Keanu Reeves' character, Johnny Silverhand . Due to the bombastic nature of Night City, the correspondent identified several "danger zones" for epileptic gamers when entering bars and nightclubs. The game's Braindance mechanic was identified as a particular area of concern; the headset that the protagonist dons to engage with the mechanic bears a surprising similarity to a medical headset used to trigger seizures, and is unfortunately roughly as effective. The correspondent recommends looking away whenever the headset appears, and using caution and, if possible, the buddy system to navigate the Braindance mechanic its

The question of accessibility in video games is a big one. By their very nature, video games are a highly visual medium, which can make it much harder for people with visual issues to partake. A YouTube video released back in August shows the difficulties of trying to play a video game with partial blindness , and appeals to the video game industry for help. More and more developers are becoming conscious of video game accessibility, and that's good, but it's a conversation that can never really

Cyberpunk 2077 _ is still four days away from its long-awaited December 10 release date, but leaked screenshots of the game are starting to make their rounds on the internet; now, the in-game map has players hyped for Night City's incredible density. While the game's map was already leaked online in October , the real breadth and scope of _Cyberpunk 2077' s world remained a mystery until further leaks revealed more details. Be forewarned: there are no plot spoilers in this article, but there is a look at Cyberpunk 2077' s in-game

Whatever Cybernight is, it'll be hard pressed to get fans more excited for the game than they already are. People are so impatient that they've already started making VR porn parodies of a game that's still a week away at best. It's been a long, hard wait for _Cyberpunk 2077 Guide|Https://cyberpunk2077Fans.Com/ 2077 _ fans. Hopefully these bereft gamers will be able to take part in whatever Cybernight is with a copy of the game finally in h

Beast_Busters_arcade_flyer.jpgIt's not likely that CD Projekt Red intended to make Cyberpunk 2077 difficult for epileptic gamers. But the world is a wide and complicated place, and it's hard to take into account every variable that might prevent a person from enjoying a game. One hopes that CD Projekt Red will take this news into account and maybe add visual filters for the benefit of epileptic gamers in a future update.
