CD Projekt RED has published a new gameplay trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 where it shows the three stories that we can choose from when starting the game.
CD Projekt RED has celebrated today a new streaming on Cyberpunk 2077. Called Night City Wire 2, the event has served to show, among other things, the importance of narrative and the different paths that history can take depending on of our decisions. In fact, the first thing we will do when starting the game is to choose between three different origins for our character, in the manner of Dragon Age: Origins. We may be a nomad, a boy from the streets or members of a powerful corporation, “corpo”.
If we choose to be a nomad we will start under the heat of the desert, and more specifically in The Badlands, the dangerous territories that surround Night City. There we will be part of a clan, a kind of family that would do anything for us. And like all its members, we are freedom-hungry rebels. Missions with vehicles will be the order of the day, as well as bonfires in the light of the moon, dreaming of a better future. One of the first objectives that we will have as a nomad, for example, will be to enter Night City to help “our brothers”, and for that we must find out how to get around the different customs posts that surround the perimeter of the city.
The nomads will be like a family living on the fringes of Night City, in the deserts of The Badlands.
Corpo, street child or nomad, what do you choose?
At the same time, the street boys move on horseback between nightclubs and gang fights. Always involved in arms, drugs and implants trafficking. Always illuminated by the neon lights of the city. We will be at a disadvantage against the police, on whose lists we have been on for a long time, and before the power and weapons of large corporations, but in return we will know more in depth the suburbs of Night City, where one can find all kinds of jobs , friendships and ways to achieve what you want. Even if it is selling the soul to the devil. It will be the road that will make us spend the most time in the city and its underworld. “Those who are born here, die here.”
Finally, being “corpo” guarantees us money, power and influence. We will go to bars full of alcohol and luxury. We will have access to state-of-the-art implants and unique weapons. We will even make decisions on which the lives of others depend. Our greatest enemy will not be the police, nor will it be the street gangs. Our greatest enemy are the secrets that we keep and must protect. An inordinate ambition and a circle of friends that lacks a heart. Plunged into a conspiracy to seize power, we will have to stop others from unseating us and do all kinds of dirty work for the corporation. For them we will face other companies, members of security equipped to the top, and even public opinion.
The street kids know the suburbs perfectly … and that includes gambling dens and people to ask a favor.
Cyberpunk 2077: a wannabe everything
Cyberpunk 2077 will arrive on November 19 on PC, Google Stadia, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Next year it will also have an improved version for PS5 and Xbox Series X, which will be completely free for all those who buy the game in the current generation of consoles. Among the many improvements of that version are expected the inclusion of ray tracing, an increase in the resolution of the title (guaranteeing 4K), even more stability in the rate of images per second (120 fps?) And reduced loading times that take advantage of the SSDs of the new platforms. In any case, CD Projekt RED’s work does not bet everything on graphics. The game wants to become “a reference” for the entire industry thanks to its universe, its playable mechanics and its enormous possibilities. In recent months we have known, for example, the potential of its novel dialogue system, the beauty that lies on the outskirts of Night City and options such as not killing anyone in the entire game. There will be such a great degree of freedom that we will even be allowed to complete the story without following the main missions, and we will even have to choose the pubic hair of our characters. The parents of The Witcher 3 want to return through the big door and hope that Cyberpunk 2077 is an aspiring to everything.
As a body we will access the most luxurious places in the game, but we will also face some of the most dangerous enemies. Of those who have money (and therefore the best technology), and those who do not see coming.
