Cyberpunk 2077 Developer Shares Disappointing News for Multiplayer Fans, Yet Again

Following years of anticipation, Cyberpunk 2077 finally released on December 10 across several gaming platforms. Fans around the world had patiently waited for the game through a series of delays; naturally, their expectations were sky scraping.

Even though Cyberpunk 2077 is a decent game on high end gaming PCs, it seems unplayable on the previous gen PS4 and Xbox One. So much so, Sony and Microsoft offered refunds to the players who bought the game for these consoles.

Even popular creators like Shroud and PewDiePie have admitted that the game failed to live up to the expectations.

CD Projekt RED is now fully committed towards improving its latest title, which certainly puts several other significant projects on hold. Among this list is Cyberpunk 2077’s standalone multiplayer mode. The developers have revealed little about the highly anticipated mode, and from the looks of it, this narrative will not change until early 2021.

Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer is not a priority for CD Projekt RED right now

As per comicbook, CD Projekt RED CEO Adam Kicinski recently clarified the company’s stance on the Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer mode. In a call with investors, he stipulated CD Projekt RED’s roadmap for 2021.

“At the moment please let us handle the situation, and please let us make some more assessments – that’s still ahead of us; we don’t know yet, and we’re now focused on improving Cyberpunk,” said Adam.

Along with the tedious task of improving Cyberpunk 2077’s performance on the PS4 and Xbox One, CDPR has to release the proper new-gen versions of the game. With so much at stakes, the developer’s decision to halt the multiplayer mode seems even more obvious.

These developments might be assuring for fans who want the single-player experience on Cyberpunk 2077 to improve. On the flip side, they will disappoint the multiplayer fans yet again. As for now, they can only sit back and wait for the clouds to disappear.
