According to journalist Tom Warren, the next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 is already rolling out on PS5 and Xbox Series X. On Microsoft’s console, the game is now labeled “Optimized for Xbox Series S and Series X” . A discovery that comes right before the expected announcement from CD Projekt RED scheduled for 4 p.m. this Tuesday, February 15, 2022.
As you may know, many rumors agree that the next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 will land on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in February 2022, after several months of delay. Moreover, the title of CD Projekt would change its name for the occasion: Cyberpunk 2077 Samurai Edition. However, this clarification must be taken with a grain of salt, for lack of official confirmation.
But precisely, we will not have to wait long. Indeed, the Polish studio has made an appointment with the players for a livestream at 4 p.m. this Tuesday, February 5, 2022. We do not yet know what topics will be covered by CD Projekt, and many clues suggest that the next-gen version of the title will be at the center of the event.
As revealed by journalist Tom Warren of The Verge, the next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 is already rolling out to Xbox Series X/S. The game finally has the mention “Optimized for Xbox Series X and Series S”which was not the case until then.
The next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 is becoming clearer
In addition, a Spanish advertisement caught the attention of many users on Twitter. According to her, a free trial version of Cyberpunk 2077 is available now. For the moment, we couldn’t find any trace of this demo on the PS Store. However, it has been announced that CD Projekt intends to sell the next-gen version in physical and dematerialized version. In fact, offering a free demo to encourage PS5 and Xbox Series X owners to checkout does not seem impossible. We’ll probably get confirmation of that this afternoon during the studio livestream.
As a reminder, players who own the title will be able to download the next-gen upgrade for free on PS5 and Xbox Series X. In fact, it is more than advisable to buy the game now on PS4 or Xbox One at a reduced price ( the game is displayed under the 30 € mark on certain sites and in stores) to obtain this next-gen version at a lower cost. The Witcher 3 is also due to return to PS5 and Xbox Series X sometime in 2022.
