Cyberpunk 2077 has been one of the most interesting releases, to say the least, of the last decade. The game's launch back in December 2020 was nothing short of a disaster, with technical issues plaguing every version. Its last-generation console versions were rendered borderline unplayable due to the myriad technical issues, including frequent framerate drops, muddy textures, crashes, and more.
While the game did eventually end up getting fixed, thanks to developer CD Projekt RED's commitment towards their project, the damage was already done. Most players had abandoned the game.
However, underneath the technical shortcomings of Cyberpunk 2077 is a rather great open-world experience, which perfectly represents the bleak, dystopic, and neon-drenched esthetics of a "cyberpunk" world.
The hype that surrounded the title before its launch and the surge in popularity that it received after the free "next-gen" update as well as the release of tie-in anime, Edgerunners, a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel was inevitable. CD Projekt RED even confirmed their interest in continuing the Cyberpunk I.P.
Given Cyberpunk 2077 is a fairly fresh title, it will be quite a while before fans eventually hear anything about its sequel, let alone get to play it for themselves. However, there are quite a few upcoming releases in 2023 that will deliver an equal, if not better, open-world and narrative-driven experience that Cyberpunk 2077's fans shouldn't miss out on.
