Exciting News: Cyberpunk 2077 Sequel Enters Pre-Production, Possibly Titled Cyberpunk 2

Sure thing, let’s dive into this. So, here’s an odd little snippet of excitement for a Wednesday—at least for the fans of Cyber-whatever. The mighty CD Projekt waved the green flag, saying Cyberpunk 2077’s sequel—yeah, we’re talking Cyberpunk 2 now—is officially warming up in the pre-production pit. Noticed they ditched that code name thing, Project Orion. I mean, who keeps up with these names, right?

Anyway, this whole song and dance popped up during a financial chat. Same ol’ congratulations to the Cyber squad for reaching this checkpoint or whatever as they get ready to throw the original Cyberpunk onto Nintendo Switch 2. That’s moving sideways if you ask me, but hey, someone’s gotta dive for those coins, right?

Random sidebar: have you ever tried understanding those financial presentations? They’re like a mishmash of numbers and tech wizardry. But focusing here—CD Projekt Red’s team got that conceptual work all tied up a few weeks back.

Oh! This part got me kind of chuckling—saw that by the end of April, 96 dev minds were hustling on Cyberpunk 2, up from 84 in February. Sounds small, compared to the 422 people sweat’n’ bleeding over Witcher 4. You got the shared squad of 131 folks doing the localisation mambo and quality check gymnastic routines too. Imagine juggling all that?

Okay, little detour here. Did you catch the buzz about Phantom Liberty expansion selling like hotcakes—10 million copies already? Meanwhile, Witcher 3? Try 60 million and counting. Kudos to those monster slayers out there celebrating a decade, roaming those wild realms.

Back to my earlier ramble, will CD Projekt stick with the oh-so-mysterious “Cyberpunk 2” or snag another year-slick title to mimic Cyberpunk 2077’s vibe? But old Mike Pondsmith’s whispers suggest a scene in a city that’s like Chicago after a serious meltdown. I hope it’s got better pizza though. Wonder what’s next—anyway, I guess we’ll have to see where this wild train heads.
