Cyberpunk 2077 gets delayed, once again
Fans are fuming with anger
Cyberpunk 2077 has been delayed again, this time by 21 days. The game was supposed to launch on November 19, but the developer has announced a slight delay, and it’ll be releasing on December 10. Rest assured, fans are furious.
Gamers have had enough of delays and are fuming in anger right now. The game’s initial launch was scheduled for April 2020, but the Coronavirus pandemic radically changed plans. Furthermore, fans are disappointed because the developers had made it certain that the November deadline will be respected.
The reason behind another delay is its compatibility with the next-gen consoles from PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series hitting the markets next month.
“We’re aware it might seem unrealistic when someone says that 21 days can make any difference in such a massive and complex game, but they really do,” director Adam Badowski and CD Projekt co-founder Marcin Iwinski said in a release.

Keep in mind, the developers are working on the game entirely from the work-from-home model. However, CD Projekt Red is indicating the added development time will be all worth it.
The most frustrating part for fans is, the game has been in development for eight years. Apparently, the game was ready-to-play in January itself and has gone Gold already. Going Gold means that the master disc is ready, indicating it’s also ready for release.
So technically, they’ve already created Cyberpunk 2077, and it’s ready for distribution. But, the game awkwardly still isn’t finished. Let’s hope the game released as planned, and there are no more delays. Because, looking at the anger online, another delay could doom the game even before anyone plays it.
Players who digitally pre-ordered Grand Theft Auto VI can now pre-load the game ahead of its launch.
Rockstar Games confirmed that pre-loading is available to all digital pre-order customers. Those who purchased the code-in-box version can also begin downloading once they receive and activate their codes.
The announcement also reveals new performance details for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
GTA VI targets 30fps on consoles
Rockstar says Grand Theft Auto VI was built from the ground up for the current generation of consoles.
The game targets 30 frames per second on both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
According to Rockstar, this approach allows the game to maintain the visual fidelity and density of Leonida’s environments.
The developer says it is pushing both platforms to their limits to bring the game’s expansive world to life.
PS5 Pro gets exclusive visual enhancements
PlayStation 5 Pro players can expect additional graphical improvements.
These include enhanced image clarity through PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and ray-traced shadows exclusive to the PS5 Pro.
The PS5 version also features integrated DualSense haptic feedback, with adjustable settings for accessibility.
Rockstar is also highlighting improved spatial audio through Tempest 3D Audio and faster loading times on PlayStation consoles.
Cloud gaming and Remote Play support
Grand Theft Auto VI will also be playable through Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
The cloud version will use Xbox Series S graphics settings. However, performance may vary depending on internet speeds and other streaming conditions.
The game will also support Remote Play on both PlayStation and Xbox.
Alongside the announcement, Rockstar released a new video featuring “Blood in Your Eyes” by Tove Lo, taken from Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album.
Players can visit the official GTA VI website for more information.
