Cyberpunk 2077 is a RPG, Not Multiplayer Shooter

CD Projekt Red CEO Marcin Iwinski tells fans to "relax," because Cyberpunk 2077 will be a "true RPG."

In a new interview Iwinski explained that the developer is not going to drift apart from its core strengths for Cyberpunk 2077. The game is expected to launch in 2015 or 2016.

"People have been asking me if Cyberpunk 2077 will have multiplayer or if it will be a straight-up shooter, and I tell them to relax, because it will be a true RPG game," Iwinski said.

"We are known for storytelling, and big game worlds, and so we’re taking all what we've learnt from previous three Witcher games, as well as the open-world aspect, and applying it to Cyberpunk 2077," he added. "So yes, it is an all-out RPG game, but we're looking at having a lot of new gameplay elements that I cannot talk about yet. One thing I can say for sure is that it is definitely NOT a multiplayer shooter."

In 2013 CD Projekt Red confirmed that the game will have some form of multiplayers, but no further details have been revealed.

Cyberpunk 2077 will put players into a "dark future" in 2077 in which advanced technologies are "both the salvation and the curse of humanity."
