Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a live-action adaptation, developer CD Projekt Red has announced.
The project is being developed in collaboration with Anonymous Content, the independent media company best known for producing Emmy-winning shows like True Detective and Mr. Robot
It's unclear if this take will be a feature-length film or a TV series, but the hunt for a screenwriter has commenced, with plans to tell a brand-new story set in the futuristic neon-lit world
where sex, body modifications, and political chatter are commonplace.
The developer also stressed that the adaptation is at an ‘early developmental stage,' so it'll be a while before we receive any further updates.
CD Projekt Red previously dabbled in such passive media by simply using the setting to chart an underdog tale via the Netflixanime Cyberpunk
which gained critical acclaim and gave the once-tarnished video game a new lease on life.
Cyberpunk 2077 suffered a rocky launch period, plagued with game-breaking bugs and crashes, to the point where Sony delisted it from the PS4 digital storefronts.
The title has since seen several improvements, thanks to the countless hotfixes and patches, alongside fresh content.
