CD Projekt RED's highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 is finally releasing for current-gen platforms on Thursday the 19th of November, which means that players will have to wait exactly one month to get their hands on the game — which, by the way, we already know has gone gold.
Cyberpunk 2077 has been in development since May of 2012, and players have really had to wait quite a long time for the game to finally release. While excitement has always been there, what sold the game to mainstream players was the reveal that Keanu Reeves would be in the game.
CD Projekt RED, of course, knows that Keanu Reeves is actually a pretty big selling point, and they have been taking advantage of this by including him in pretty much every trailer since they announced that he was part of Cyberpunk 2077; back in June of last year during E3.
As a matter of fact, and recently revealed during episode 4 of the Night City Wire miniseries, CD Projekt RED asked Reeves whether they could use one of the bikes his motorcycle company ARCH Motorcycle produces, and Keanu accepted, so he's not only playing a role in the game, but he's also helped the development of the game in more ways than one.
The developers have been releasing TV spots ahead of the highly anticipated game's release, and they have all featured the popular Hollywood actor. The latest TV spot is no exception, as Keanu Reeves gives players even more reasons to get excited for the release of Cyberpunk 2077, as if him being in the game wasn't reason eough.
