Cyberpunk 2077 won't cost more on PS5 or Xbox Series X

Cyberpunk 2077 has been confirmed for PS5 and Xbox Series X for quite some time, but only now do we have confirmation that there won't be any next-gen price increases on the incoming consoles. Michal Nowakowski, head of CD Projekt RED, claimed that the game will cost the same on current and next-gen hardware, clarifying consistent pricing during an investor briefing (via GameSpot). “For USD, we started our pre-orders at €60 and of course we will keep that price for consumers,” Nowakowski said. “We're not going to change it at the last minute to €70. So just to confirm, these prices are on the market anyway; you can check them on different sites: 59,99 USD and 69,99 EUR is what we are looking for”. (In the meantime, UK buyers can expect to shell out €50 for current and new-gen versions.) That's good news for the incoming game, which will also be available as a free upgrade on Xbox Series X via Xbox Smart. Delivery (and on PS5) if players buy the current version first. We know that Cyberpunk 2077 is still on track for a November release, albeit after two significant delays from its initial April release date. This will coincide with the release windows for the PS5 and Xbox Series X, with the next-gen version of the game releasing when the consoles do. So whether you're sticking with your current gaming setup or using new hardware, there's a Cyberpunk 2077 build for you.

Looks expensive

Pricing for next-gen games in general has been quite confusing, with several publishers beginning to confirm price increases while others stick with existing price points. 2K Games has confirmed that NBA 2K21 will cost an extra $10 for next-gen releases in the US, while Ubisoft has gone the opposite direction, saying its next-gen games won't cost players more in the future. immediate. . Meanwhile, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick further confused things by saying that games released by Take-Two would be priced "title by title". He makes sense that prices would go up, given the increased complexity of video games today, but there will also come a time when the cost will simply be out of reach for everyday gamers. Services like Xbox Game Pass may be the solution here, as flagship games will arrive later, and only those who want to play on launch day will have to pay a substantial premium, though we hope that solution doesn't create a generation of gamers who they can only experience the AAA games that are coming to this type of platform, about a year after its release.
