Cyberpunk 2077 will finally hit store shelves in a few weeks from now, but there are players who have been impatiently waiting for the game to release pretty much since developer CD Projekt RED announced it all the way back in May of 2012; yes, the game's been in development for 8 years.
The developers at CD Projekt RED have poured their hearts and souls into making sure that Cyberpunk 2077 is the top quality product that fans have been waiting to play. While there have been some delays, every time the devs share new information via the Night City Wire presentations, they prove that these delays were well worth the wait.
Cyberpunk 2077 is definitely an ambitious project, and a few hints here and there have led fans to believe that the game will be quite beefy in terms of content — especially because CD Projekt RED has already mentioned that they want to give each player the freedom to play the game any way they want, to the point that every players will have a very different experience.
The game's open world is definitely massive, and a recent comment made by CD Projekt RED QA Lead for Łukasz Babiel has revealed that players will have, at the very least, over a solid 150 hours before they complete the game.
According to a tweet posted by Babiel, he has already put in a massive 175 hours into Cyberpunk 2077, but he does mention that he's taken his time playing the game. Plus, he also reveals that he's taken a stealthier approach, and that he's actually playing the game on the hardest difficulty.
Babiel does recommend that players experience Cyberpunk 2077 in either the Normal or Hard difficutlies first, and not go for Very Hard the first time around. With that said, he does mention that the difficulty level can be changed at any time. Thursday the 10th of December just can't come any sooner.
