On the day developer CD Projekt Red revealed the next game in The Witcher saga, it also reminded us that, yep, Cyberpunk 2077 still has an expansion coming. The company likely had to pivot hard following Cyberpunk‘s release, sweeping up bugs and basically fixing a pretty broken game. However, work on the game’s first story DLC continues. In an earnings report today, the company claimed that the Cyberpunk 2077 chapter will release next year.

As reported by IGN, several “agile teams” are on station to get the expansion out the door. The creation of said teams was a result of the troubled development behind the game, CDPR President Adam Kicinski said. That’s not all too surprising. The developer went under heavy crunch to get Cyberpunk 2077 shipped, so it makes sense that it would desire a change before the release of the expansion. Let’s hope that’s the reason.

Kicinski reiterated in the call that the company is approaching the upcoming DLC much like it did for The Witcher 3. So, one can expect that the expansion will be grandiose in scale. As I recall, The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine added about 20-30 hours of extra content to the game. And it was amazing.

As it was mentioned in @CDPROJEKTRED_IR financial call moments ago, Cyberpunk 2077's upcoming expansion will arrive in 2023. Please stay tuned for more details coming later this year

Work on the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion was listed at the top, and the third bullet point mentions “further support” for the game. Naturally, this should translate as more patches and updates, as the game is still somewhat unstable. The roadmap also includes a mention for the next Witcher
