CD Projekt Red has officially confirmed onTwitterthat they have come around to the idea of implementing a multiplayer feature intoCyberpunk 2077. The studio stated that the much-anticipated title will receive a multiplayer mode sometime post-launch. The devs also highlighted thatCyberpunk 2077will get some kind of free DLC and additional single-player content post-launch also but didn’t indulge into this aspect of the game just yet.

In a previousinterview with Eurogamer, senior concept artist at CD Projekt Red Marthe Jonkers discussed the complexities surrounding a multiplayer inCyberpunk 2077"It’s possible if it doesn’t fit, it doesn’t fit,” says Jonkers. “We would never make anything that’s not at leastÂThe Witcher standard forÂCyberpunk. I don’t know what the future holds but we will make sure everything we make will be high quality.” Marthe continues “We are doing R&D into multiplayer but we’re focusing on single-player experience, and that’s what you’ll get in 2020. It doesn’t mean we’re saying no multiplayer, but it doesn’t mean we’re saying yes either. It’s still an R&D phase.”

Well, it seems as though the R&D phase is now over as CD Projekt Red have posted arecruitment pagewhere eight jobs for a multiplayer team are listed in which it highlights roles for a design director, game designer, and a senior gameplay programmer.

It will be really interesting to see how CD Projekt Red go about adding a multiplayer into an open-world RPG, but I do secretly hope that they do something similar to what Rockstar North did withGTAonline. Only time will tell and of course, we will keep you updated with any further news on this.
