Cyberpunk 2077 News – Lore Based Multiplayer, Crazy Side-Quest, Gender Pronouns & Romancing Keanu!

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 News episode we have a new interview with CDPR’s Max Pears where we get more explanations on Multiplayer R&D, Crazy sidequests, playtesting, body types, romancing Keanu reeves, Third person cutscenes, how NPCs will address you and much more.

When asked if there has been any changes when it comes to levels based on playtesting and character builds offering up new challenges when it comes to level design, Max responds by saying “There was definitely constant tweaking and iteration because in one playtest the player might not even touch certain routes.

Max goes on to mention that changes have been made specifically in how the game will allow you to play the stealthy route, and that there is always an option for the player.

Next we have a question about the importance of R&D when it comes to multiplayer.

When it comes to free DLC and expansions, it seems like CDPR will be following in the footsteps of the Witcher 3 and applying what they’ve learned from those releases as well. Expect a lot of free post launch content and DLCs that have the scope of entire games in themselves similar to Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine.

The next question was in regards to if existing TPP cutscenes have been changed (Like the ones seen in the 2018 demo) to first person?

Pears was also asked how NPC’s address the player character’s gender.

Lastly Max Pears also mentions that we won’t be able to romance Johnny Silverhand aka Keanu Reeves.

Next we have a tweet from the Cyberpunk 2077 twitter page showing an image of a max tac officer.

Finally we have a Japanese interview with Richard Borzymowski where he discusses some of the influences of Cyberpunk 2077.
