Recently, I found myself in Warsaw, Poland, on a trip to CD Projekt RED's shiny new headquarters. My mission was to join the first press hands-on for Cyberpunk 2077's massive expansion, Phantom Liberty, which will also be the game's only expansion.
Cyberpunk 2077 was a controversial game at launch. While I personally adored the Cyberpunk 2077's review build on PC playing as a stealthy cyborg-hacking netrunner, the game was a mess on consoles, particularly the previous-gen PlayStation and Xbox. The game also sported a lot of issues with regard to playstyle balance and itemization, with some feeling as though elements of the game's marketing campaign mislead player expectations. Fast forward a couple of years, however, and the game has started to enjoy something of a renaissance.
