The next generation of video game consoles looms large over the gaming industry as Sony and Microsoft prepare to launch their new hardware systems. The devices currently known as Project Scarlett and the PlayStation 5 have gamers excited, as well as developers, for the future. However, these devices will present challenges as they will surely push console gaming to higher technical capabilities and standards. One of the most talented developers out there is CD Projekt RED, who is closing in on the final months of development for their new game Cyberpunk 2077. Now, it sounds like the Cyberpunk 2077 dev is ready to take on the next generation of gaming.

Cyberpunk 2077 dev CD Projekt RED recently hosted their third quarter of 2019 financial conference call, and updated their concerned parties about their year so far, and the near future for the developer. Much of the discussion focused on the coming release of Cyberpunk 2077, but the topic of the next generation of gaming consoles also came up. In regards to the PlayStation 5 and Project Scarlett, here’s what CD Projekt RED stated:

Of course, we do have insights on what’s around the corner and what’s happening with PlayStation and Xbox. We’re watching it closely and one may probably assume that at some point we’re gonna do something with the next-gen. However, we cannot really be very specific about what that might be, when exactly that might be. I will only safely assume that it’s not gonna be around the launch timeframe of those consoles.”

While a new game by the Cyberpunk 2077 dev may not come for the launch of the next generation, this may not exclude a port of Cyberpunk 2077 for these systems. CD Projekt RED also stated that they believe they always stay ahead of new technology, with their games being best experienced on high-end PCs. Given this, they feel confident that the next generation of consoles would be “doable.” CD Projekt RED has certainly delivered on their promises before, and hopefully by the next big console launch, they’ll be more than prepared for the breathtaking future of gaming.
