Gamescom Opening Night Live will be held on August 22 at 11 AM PT. The event is promising new looks at games like Black Myth: Wukong and the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion has also been confirmed recently.
Phantom Liberty is going to be the first and only expansion of Cyberpunk 2077. Therefore, expectations are high for CD Projekt Red to deliver on its promises from a few years ago.
With a September 26 release, Gamescom 2023 is expected to deliver the last major look at Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty before the expansion is released to the public worldwide.
Phantom Liberty has led to newfound excitement for Cyberpunk 2077, and it could lead to a major resurgence for the title. Previously, CD Projekt Red saw renewed interest after various patches and the success of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Early impressions of Phantom Liberty have also been very positive.
Cyberpunk 2077 has recently managed to turn the tides with 80% of the Steam reviews being positive. However, developers from CD Projekt Red have acknowledged that their work is not finished, and they need to do more to win back lost trust.
In addition to the highly anticipated expansion, the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 has also been announced. While fans are currently excited about the major content for the first game, they can also look forward to another saga in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe.
