Cyberpunk 2077 could be released soon-ish – rumor

Developer CD Projekt Red has received a lot praise these last few years thanks to their highly acclaimed Witcher series and especially this year, with many seeing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as the best game of 2015. But despite the fact that the Polish studio managed to put together one of the best RPG series of all time, a lot of people are anxious to see what else they can bring to the table. As it happens, CD Projekt announced a brand new title called Cyberpunk 2077 a few years back, but weren’t too big on the details back then and we didn’t hear anything major since either. Until now.
This is technically only a rumor so take it for what it is, but word on the street is that Cyberpunk 2077 should be coming out sometime during late 2016. The information comes courtesy of Gamereactor Germany, a website that seems to have some pretty good connections as it is citing a source that is apparently close to CD Projekt Red and knows what’s going on. As it’s often the case with things like this, the source has remained anonymous so it’s pretty hard to confirm if there is any truth behind this rumor. The source also says that CD Projekt is currently working on the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077, however, the game is likely to appear on consoles as well.
The Polish studio itself continues to be awfully quiet, but one can only assume that some sort of progress was surely made since the game was first announced back in 2012. The last official word from CD Projekt Red is that Cyberpunk 2077 will be “far, far bigger” than any of the studio’s previous games, including the Witcher 3, which is pretty huge in its own right. Could such a huge game be ready by late 2016? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

As Disney Speedstorm Ends, Arendelle Hits PS5, PS4

Disney Speedstorm, Gameloft’s free-to-play kart racer, will enter its latest season with a wintery backdrop of Arendelle. Let It Go will add Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff, and Hans as racers. As always, they’ll have unique moves and abilities.
Oaken and other musical movie crew members will be unlocked, along with a new Golden Pass. After fan feedback, the developer is rebalancing this aspect of the release so you can progress faster and unlock more rewards.
The developer also announced on Twitter that it’s lowering in-game shop prices starting today, and if you’ve paid for microtransactions, you’ll get a big payout. The French studio appears to be betting on this season’s success.
Adding non-Frozen characters Oswald, Ortensia, and WALL-E could also help. A comprehensive game update should bring back lapsed players and attract new ones. Will you challenge the kart racer?

New Destiny 2 Microtransaction Is Bad Bungie Removed It from PS5, PS4

Bungie has pulled a contentious $15 starter pack from Season of the Wish, which launched yesterday. The pack had a poor selection and was marketed to new players, which the community strongly opposed.
The starter pack proudly stated that players could “experience the power of build-defining Exotic weapons by instantly unlocking three of Destiny 2’s finest: Traveler’s Chosen, Ruinous Effigy, and Sleeper Simulant.” An exotic ship, a sparrow, a ghost shell, 125,000 glimmer, 50 enhancement cores, five enhancement prisms, and one ascendant shard are also included.
This offering may seem harmless to a new player, but Forbes’ Paul Tassi says, “You sort of have to be a Destiny 2 player to understand what an outrageously bad deal this is.” The Forsaken Pack, another Bungie release, includes two dozen Exotics, a dungeon, and a raid. It cost $20 and is now $5. It looks bad, from what we can tell.
Guardians retaliated with negative Steam reviews. They orchestrated the DLC page to include “Capitalism,” “Crime,” and “Psychological Horror” user tags, which is funny.
After Bungie pulled the pack, Redditor Grizz3d summarized the community response: “I don’t get how that starter pack was approved. What part of stealing from new players wasn’t going to result in community outrage? Bungie’s disconnect with players is shocking. I’m glad you got rid of the pack, but it’s disappointing that Bungie thought it was a good idea.”
This follows the Witcher 3 crossover armour sets, which look great but are expensive. Sony’s independent live service outpost is in danger due to a delayed expansion and studio layoffs.

PlayStation planted over 500,000 trees last year

Sony announced last year that it would plant trees for Horizon Forbidden West PlayStation fans who unlocked a simple trophy in the open-world game. This, in partnership with several charities, sought to protect the global environment and biodiversity.
Over a year later, it released a trailer showing its progress. The company has planted 600,000 trees worldwide, restoring 1,800 acres. More importantly, the gaming industry has planted 2.5 million trees worldwide.
Gaming is fun, but we must protect our world. Sony has taken steps to be more environmentally friendly, such as adding energy-saving features to the PS5 and shipping all its products in fully recyclable packaging.
