Hollywood star Idris Elba will star in the video game ‘Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty’. The company CD Projekt SA is looking for redemption and it plans to release a new expansion of the game on September 26.
According to Bloomberg, ‘Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty’ will feature a new story and various parts of the game will be overhauled such as class abilities and the much-derided police system.
Based on a recent hour of playing time, the new extension appears to challenge players with lots of interesting decisions, such as whether to trust a pair of drifters who show up at the safe house in which the president is hiding.
‘There’s an absolute dedication to what’s needed to be done to make it right,’ said Gabe Amatangelo, the expansion’s director.
‘Cyberpunk 2077’, which stars Keanu Reeves and is set in a massive, dystopian sci-fi city, was one of the most-hyped video games on the planet prior to its debut. However, when the game was released in 2020, it suffered from myriad glitches and other problems.
According to Bloomberg, Amatangelo said that after ‘Phantom Liberty’ he will direct a full-blown sequel to ‘Cyberpunk 2077’. CD Projekt will use Epic Games’ Unreal Engine — a decision that will also likely help the company’s recruiting efforts.
