This is quite a bold statement considering Cyberpunk 2077 has already won the ?Best RPG Game of the Year? award at Gamescom 2020. Additionally, CoD is also a different genre than Assassin?s Creed Valhalla and CP 2077. This makes the prediction a little far-fetched.

Assassin?s Creed Valhalla does promise a great experience too, but comparing it to CP 2077 would be a little difficult. Both the games are RPGs but have very different mechanics, stories, and gameplay.
