Cyberpunk 2077 News – Music, Hacking & VS The Witcher 3!

In today’s Cyberpunk 2077 News episode well be looking at some new details about final development, cyberpunks popularity versus the witcher, hacking and netrunning details, and the music and composition of Cyberpunk 2077.

So first up we Adamn Kicinski and some new information he revealed during CDPR’s Quarter 3 2018 Financial call. In this call he compared and contrasted the interest in Witcher 3 trailers versus Cyberpunk 2077 trailers on YouTube, during pre development. Adam kicinski mentions that based on the trailer realeases the popularity of Cyberpunk is many times greater than that of the witcher 3, during the time phase it was releasing trailers. He does go on to mention that we shouldn’t draw to many conclusions from this, as its almost comparing apples to oranges, but nonetheless it’s interesting to see that Cyberpunk is a game with seemingly more mass appeal.

Kicinski also goes into details abouy the fact that Cyberpun 2077 is currently fully playable from start to finish, some information we learned at GamesCom 2018. This is still a true fact, and Kicinski mentions that development is progressing fast and on schedule, but there is a “hugely important” phase of polishing at the end of development.

Now if you want some insight into what these kind of polishings can be, look no farther than comparisons from the E3 trailer to the Gameplay Demo. This scene in particular highlights just how much more detail and work goes into their polishing phase.

Kicinski also mentioned that CDPR are striving to make the game as refined as Red Dead 2 after being asked about Rockstars success with that game.

Next we have details on the music and score of Cyberpunk 2077., It seems thatMarcin Pryzbylowicz will compose the score and soundtrack of Cyberpunk 2077. Pryzbylowicz also worked on The Witcher 3 which had an excellent soundtrack and hes very well known in Poland for it. This article also mentions how the score and composition will be made in house.

The soundtrack from the E3 trailer was from the artist Hyper and isn’t reflective of the sounds that well hear in game. The demo is more on par with what we will hear and If the music we heard in the gameplay reveal is any indication of what’s to come, we are in good hands.

Next up we have a facebook message conversation between a fan and the Cyberpunk 2077 facebook page, that gives us some information about hacking and netrunning in the game. If you guys haven’t checked it out yet, I’ve gone through 10 of the big questions answered via their Facebook group, so go check it out for even more news. Ill link it in the top for you guys.

In this particular message the user asks about how hacking will work. CDPR responds with Netrunning will definetley be in the game, and that youll be able to use it to open doors, distract enemies and help during missions. Youll also be able to gather intel and information to use to your advantage such as interesting locations and more. This last bit is really intriguing as you can possibly hack a certain system and learn about hidden areas, quests or content. This means hacking will also play a pivotal role in getting to know the world, and isn’t just a gameplay mechanic within Cyberpunk 2077.

Lastly, Cyberpunk 2077 won the Golden Joystick award for most anticipated and wanted game, so head on over to twitter and send them a congratulatory tweet.

That’s it for me guys but for everything and anything Cyberpunk 2077, subscribe to the arcade.
