I don’t know about you, but this job listing really makes it seem like the studio is gearing up to release something. Seeing as CD Projekt RED has plans to release two AAA titles within as many years, and we only know about one of them, there’s a good chance this has a lot to do with Cyberpunk 2077. Of course, whoever fills the role will also likely deal with the other AAA game, but we can only hope that Night City is their first destination.
Cyberpunk 2077 has no solid release date, but it is currently in development for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Keep it tuned to Don’t Feed the Gamers as this story develops, and for other gaming goodness going on right now, check out the following:
