Keanu Reeves is playing a major role in CD Projekt RED's highly-anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 but it seems like he will not be the only recognizable actor in the game.
CD Projekt RED's UI Director Alvin Liu recently talked with Video Games Chronicle and teased that more actors may be featured in Cyberpunk 2077.
"Uh… I can't comment on that! You guys are going to have to wait and see," Liu said when asked if there are any more surprises in terms of actors being featured in the game.
Liu went on to explain that any celebrity that has been pursued for Cyberpunk 2077 had to be a great match for the game and not just simply to appeal to a different audience.
"I will say that CDPR is a video game company first and it's very important to us that the match works," Liu said. "If it was a random celebrity that just wouldn't work with our franchise, like Britney Spears or something, we wouldn't pursue that opportunity. So for us, we pursue it because it's a great match for the game and not necessarily because we want to accomplish some goal with reaching a different audience or anything like that."
Liu also talked about The Witcher 3 Nintendo Switch port, stating that the studio is proud of the quality of the game for Switch, despite the compromises that have to made with the system.
"Yeah, we're really happy with how Witcher 3 is playing on Switch. It's still at a quality that we're proud of, but we also understand that there were hardware trade-offs that we had to do, in terms of performance versus graphics. Right now there's a bit less foliage and some of the draw distances are lower… but it still looks amazing. I was very impressed. Unless you pointed a lot of changes out to me I probably wouldn't have noticed them.
You'll get the full Witcher 3 and all expansions. We're not really cutting anything. The biggest changes that we made involve the user interface and how you interact is a bit different on the Switch compared to other versions. I think if this is your first experience with The Witcher 3, then you're going to be really thrilled and enjoy it. Our company is pretty proud of what we've accomplished."
Here's a description of the Cyberpunk 2077 game:
"Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world, action-adventure story set in Night City, a megalopolis obsessed with power, glamour and body modification. You play as V, a mercenary outlaw going after a one-of-a-kind implant that is the key to immortality. You can customize your character's cyberware, skillset and playstyle, and explore a vast city where the choices you make shape the story and the world around you."
Cyberpunk 2077 is set to release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on April 16, 2020.
