CD Projekt Red has announced that Cyberpunk 2077 will receive its Game of the Year edition when the Phantom Liberty expansion is released in 2023.
According to the Polish website Stockwatch (And I discovered it indoor gamesCD Projekt Red president and co-CEO Adam Kisinski said during a recent investor conference that Cyberpunk 2077 will follow in the footsteps of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and get a remake that will include all previously released DLCs in one package.
“It’s the natural order of things,” he said. “It was the same with The Witcher, which was finally released as a Game of the Year edition after two expansions and has been on the market ever since. Hopefully the same.”
The Phantom Liberty DLC — the only paid expansion for Cyberpunk 2077 that will include several hours of new story content — is expected to be released sometime in 2023, and Kisinski says a Game of the Year edition will follow soon after.
Since this expansion will only be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC, it is likely that the Game of the Year edition will only be available on those platforms.
In our 9/10 review of the base game on PC, IGN said, “Cyberpunk 2077 throws you into a gorgeous, intense cityscape and offers a surprising amount of flexibility in how you progress from there.”
