With a release date of April 16th, 2020, the excitement continues to build for Cyberpunk 2077. While there’s still a while before we can get our hands on CD Projekt Red’s latest, the flow of news and detail about the game continues. Read on to see what we learned this week.

This week the PlayStation Store updated its Cyberpunk 2077 page, including listing the game size at 80GB. Of course, there is still some time before release, so this size is subject to change.

Indeed, Reddit user r/PhoOhThree (who is a developer on Cyberpunk 2077) confirmed that new content is still being added to the game so this 80GB file size is expected to go up.

Because the game will be at least 80GB, Cyberpunk 2077 will be bigger than CD Projekt Red’s previous open-world smash hit, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. In fact, Cyberpunk 2077 is set to be much bigger than Witcher 3 as (including all DLC content) that game came to a mere 51GB.

CD Projekt Red has also previously hinted that Cyberpunk 2077 will be gaining multiple DLCs just as Witcher 3 did. With all this extra content could we see the file size eclipse even Red Dead Redemption 2’s giant 105GB on PS4?

Lead Cyberpunk 2077 quest designer Pawel Sasko recently revealed on Twitter that, similar to Witcher 3, there would be diverse romance options in Cyberpunk 2077. He also suggested that players may be surprised by the variety of love interests in the game. Sasko stated:

‘So in terms of romances - you can think that it's going to be similar to how Witcher 3 was - there were whole plotlines regarding characters, and if those NPCs were treated well and interested in Geralt, something would happen. Here it's going to be very similar.’

Cyberpunk 2077 revolves around a character that you create and, using the character customisation tool, you’ll be able to tailor your character right down to their sexuality.

Different NPCs will also have their own sexual orientation and preferences which means that you’ll be able to experience romance in a broader, more inclusive way.

Finally, it was announced that Cyberpunk 2077 will not feature a morality system. This means that your playable character will not be labelled as completely good or deviously bad by the end credits. You can, however, complete the game in a pacifistic manner, finishing the campaign without killing anyone.

Talking to GameBolt, quest director for the game Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz revealed that there was no ‘moral system per se. However, to complete [Cyberpunk 2077] non-lethally, you have to be very good at stealth, invest in points that allow you to stealth better, use weapons that will allow you to incapacitate the enemy instead of killing them.’

Additionally, the option to play non-lethally may well impact the multiple endings that CD Projekt Red have promised will be included in the game. As the Witcher 3 showed players, there are likely to be huge consequences for your actions.

Cyberpunk 2077 will release on April 16th, 2020. For more news on Cyberpunk 2077 as it’s revealed, stay tuned to Daily Star Gaming.
