Cyberpunk 2077 cements Keanu Reeves legacy

Cyberpunk 2077, made by Polish video game company CD Projekt Red, features V — a character players can customize — who has a malware-infected biochip in their head. That malware takes the form of Johnny Silverhand, played by Keanu Reeves.

CNN Business played Cyberpunk ahead of its launch and talked to CD Projekt Red about the delays — as well as how the studio plans to make its money back.

That last point is key, as the game received a “substantial” budget, Michał Nowakowski, Projekt Red’s senior vice president of business development, told CNN Business.

It’s a massive world that CD Projekt Red estimates could take 100 to 200 hours to explore — and it also took a massive amount of time to develop, with Bloomberg reporting employees working long hours to make their deadlines.

Tomaszkiewicz, the quest director, said employees “still get surprised” by how the public receives their games.
