Cyberpunk devs blame the scrapped multiplayer mode on issues with the base game – but could it be resurrected?
Years ago, Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt RED announced that it was making a multiplayer game set in the same sci-fi world. The RPG was released two years ago but there’s still no sign of the multiplayer spinoff, the developer has finally explained why, and, well, the reason is kind of obvious when you hear it.
„The priority was that the main experience will run for the people in a really good state,“ Cyberpunk 2077’s campaign director Phipp Weber told Eurogamer (opens in new tab). “We wanted to do many things at the same time, and we just needed to really focus and say, ‚Okay, what’s the important part?’”
The developer focused its attention on creating patches and updates for Cyberpunk 2077 and put the multiplayer on the back burner.
