CD Projekt RED’s choice to develop Cyberpunk 2077 as a first-person recreation after delivering a trilogy of third-person Witcher motion RPGs proved to be a controversial one on the time, although most at the moment are working beneath the idea that its sequel will comply with swimsuit. After all, CDPR itself has refused to concretely verify or deny that so far– although it appears the studio might have executed that via a not too long ago printed job itemizing.
An advert for the place of senior gameplay animator was not too long ago posted by CD Projekt RED on LinkedIn. Underneath {qualifications}, the advert lists, amongst different issues, “an animation reel demonstrating immersive 1st particular person view mannequin animation”, suggesting that Cyberpunk 2 (or no matter CDPR finally ends up calling it) may also be a first-person recreation (or on the very least partially first-person).
With Cyberpunk 2077 and its growth, Phantom Liberty, CDPR firmly established a framework and id for the franchise, so it’s not shocking to see the studio selecting to keep it up. Whether or not we will perhaps count on a third-person possibility within the recreation stays to be seen, however a primarily (or totally) first-person Cyberpunk sequel is way from shocking at this level.
The subsequent Cyberpunk recreation is at present within the early phases of growth at CDPR’s new Boston studio, which is led by veteran Cyberpunk 2077 builders. One other latest job itemizing steered that the sport is aiming for “essentially the most lifelike and reactive crowd system in any recreation thus far.” Learn extra on that via right here.
