The second episode of Cyberpunk 2077’s Night City Wire mini-series aired today, which featured a new gameplay sequence and details on the game’s futuristic guns and gadgets.
In particular, we were shown more on how versatile the weaponry in Cyberpunk 2077 is, which is split into three main categories: Power, Smart, and Tech.
A brief Q&A featured in addition to the gameplay presentation during the actual livestream also provided a ton of interesting tidbits as each of the weapon categories is broken down.
Notably, as explained by senior gameplay designer Pawel Kapawa, CD Projekt Red has worked tirelessly to find a pleasing balance between RPG mechanics and FPS gameplay. A key focus has been to make sure weapons not only feel great to shoot but also alter how players approach tactical situations.
Also featured in today’s Night City Wire, a second new trailer showcasing how players are able to shape the backstories of their V character build was presented.
Cyberpunk 2077 is slated for launch on Nov. 19 across PS4, Xbox One, and PC, which is a two-month delay from its previous Sept. 17 slot.
Players who purchase the game on current-generation systems will have the opportunity to play it on either PS5 or Xbox Series X free of charge, though a proper next-gen port is also in the works for 2021.
