🚨 EXCLUSIVE UPDATE: A CYBERPUNK 2077 multiplayer sequel tease just dropped… but fans are NOT happy! 🚨

After all the hype, the new reveal has left fans feeling disappointed and frustrated. The BOMBSHELL? A teaser that may have promised more but has left the gaming community saying, “I’m so tired.” 😔

CD Projekt RED might have only just released Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition for the Nintendo Switch 2, but developers at the studio are already at work on the sequel.

Despite the rocky launch, Cyberpunk 2077 ended up being a brilliant game, selling millions and pulling in dedicated fans who adore the franchise.

Rumours and discussion regarding the sequel, supposedly called simply Cyberpunk 2, point to the follow-up having a multiplayer focus.

It’s likely to be a separate mode for players to gather with friends, but many don’t see the point of it and feel disgruntled towards the idea.

On Reddit, one fan wrote out a lengthy post saying they “can’t understand why CDPR can’t accept being a single player developer”.

“Was 30 million copies not good enough? They keep doing interviews about Orion saying how they are strongly considering multiplayer, for what? Another bad launch? To take half the dev team away to focus on something half of your fans don’t care about or will even play? How the hell would it even work? It’s just a pointless idea. You wanna do multiplayer? Fine. Then make a new IP, I’m so tired of developers taking advantage of single player gamers by forcing multiplayer and live service into single player games and franchises. Cause they aren’t original to come up with their own shit and they know nowadays multiplayer doesn’t have a strong enough rep to sell a game on its own. Keep this franchise single player. Keep the Witcher single player. Keep making boatloads of money doing what you do best. Why potentially sabotage it?”

They go on to say, “Was 30 million copies not good enough? How the hell would it even work? It’s just a pointless idea. I’m so tired of developers taking advantage of single player gamers by forcing multiplayer and live service into single player games and franchises.”

I’d argue that the developer likely has a unique way to implement multiplayer into the sequel, but the concern is valid.

One reply notes competition with other open-world action games, saying, “Simple answer is GTA 5 online kinda f**ked the market. They made billions with their shark cards, so now every developer wants to try and chase that.”

Another user notes, “The one lie that every company is built on is infinite wealth. No amount is ever good enough.”

However, as one player points out, “2077 was originally going to have multiplayer but was cancelled along with the other expansions so they could fix the base game, it’s not like they’re randomly deciding out of nowhere.”

CD Projekt RED abandoned so many plans for the original game, although the RED Engine couldn’t support multiplayer fully, so this might just be their chance at fulfilling that vision.
