Today we are going over ALL the news, details and information from E3 2019 when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077. This will include every single tidbit of NEW information compiled from all the articles and videos out there at the moment. This will include new mechanics, story details, gameplay elements, world building details, hacking vs tankier builds, new gangs and districts and more.

Getting right into the juicy news we first have some of the new images from Cyberpunk 2077 and some details and information to go along with them. CDPR shared screenshots from the Public and Private demo showcases on multiple platforms which highlight the world of Pacifica, The voodooboys and more.

We also have new Steelbooks as preorders from some of the retailers for Cyberpunk 2077. These steelbooks feature the new gangs. We have the Maesltrom from Watson, The voodooboys from Pacifica, The Tygers Claw and the Valentinos. Mateus Tomaskiewich has made mention that the 6 districts of Night City will each be run by a certain gang or faction and that there will be sub factions amongst them. There is also the Badlands segment on the ourskirts of the world and will feature 2 Nomad factions, the aldecaldos and Raff and shiv.

When it comes to districts and new areas there is also Cyberspace. In the world of Cyberpunk 2077 there is a black wall which seperates the original Cyberspace in the lore from Cyberpunk 2077’s localized networks.

When it comes to mini-games there is a Boxing / mma mini game with a series of matches, as well as car racing and a shooting range at the Second Amendement with Wilson.

CD PROJEKT RED also released beautiful new Cyberpunk 2077 concept art.

When it comes to the CGI trailer many have been asking if this is an integral part of the story arc. This is representative of a mission in game and you will be able to influence the result based on how you play. When it comes to Male V’s voice actor, it’s been confirmed that it is Gavin Drea.

Now we all know that Keanu Reeves is Johnny Silverhand in the game, and we have some interesting details about him. First He was approached a year ago to get on board with the project. He is an integral part of the story and is the #2 character other than V with the most dialogue lines. They had 15 days of voice recording for Keanu and he is a digitized consciousness connected to the immortality chip. The way you develop your relationship with Johnny impacts the way you play, and the quests and scenes that you see. CDPR said if it wasn’t Keanu for Silverhand they didn’t want anyone else.

Moving onto the Gameplay mechanics, this new demo CD PROJEKT RED was showing was focused more on these nuanced mechanics. First we learn that the Childhood hero tab has now been replaced via their Life path system. This includes a backstory of either a street kid, corporate or nomad. This influences options further on in the story as you progress, and unlocks new dialogue potentials for those who share similar backgrounds.

There is also a perk system connected to your skills which will also unlock varied dialogue options when interacting other people. The perks in the demo included Pistols, rifles, blades, shotguns, twohanded, hacking, assassinations, cold blood, sniper rifles, engineering, melee and athletics. Perks will allow you to improve your effectiveness with specific weapons, and unlock new weapons and abilities.

When it comes to using companions and drones they have only confirmed the Spiderbot which can have new abilities unlocked as you level up your Techie skill tree. You will be able to play the entire game without killing enemies.

When it comes to vehicles, you will be able to have multiple and you can keep them in garages. You will be able to summon them like roach, likely due to smart link or auto driving feature. You will be able to steal cars and drive through crowds of people but be wary of the governing force of the districts you do this in. Yes you will only have one apartment instead of multiple, as they have gone back to the drawing board for this feature.

When it comes to modifying yourself with Cyberware, there is the option to play an almost no Upgrade human path. The base augments you will need include the Kiroshi eye and the subdermal grip shown in last years demo. You will be able to exchange most of your body, legs, spine and more but not to the degree of the Maelstrom.

NVIDIA has announced full real time ray tracing support via RTX technology.

When it comes to endings, there will be a ton of endings, with sub endings and variations to each ending.

Mike Pondsmith the developer of the source material also mentions how at the beginning of development CD PROJEKT RED’s weapon design was too shiny. He wanted bug, ugly and brutal guns that reflect the gritty atmosphere.

Mike expects that there will be a port to next gen at some point in the future. Mateus expects that censorship will be similar to the witcher 3 and be largely region based.
