Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most anticipated games of 2020. The follow-up to CD Projekt's incredible success Red The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will allow players to take on the role of a technologically enhanced citizen in Night City and explore a world based on Mike Pondsmith's cult classic tabletop RPG, Cyberpunk 2020.
