CD Projekt Red has a live-action Cyberpunk adaptation on the way

We'd be doing an injustice if we ignored the success of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and the renewed life it brought to Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt Red's redemption arc is now complete, with the final major updates shipping for Cyberpunk 2077, as well as a major expansion. We won't have to wait for Cyberpunk 2 to get more of Night City though, as CD Projekt Red has now confirmed plans for a live action adaptation.

Cyberpunk: Edgerunners did very well, taking full advantage of the animation medium and using it to tell a more personal story set in Night City. Now, CD Projekt Red is teaming up with production company, Anonymous Content, to produce a live-action Cyberpunk project.

Anonymous Content has worked on shows like True Detective and Mr. Robot, as well as on Hollywood films like The Revenant. The live-action Cyberpunk adaptation is currently in early development and is in need of a screen writer and other roles.

We don't know exactly when this project will come to fruition but we imagine we'll get to see this well before CD Projekt's Cyberpunk sequel is ready.

KitGuru Says: The world of Cyberpunk is awesome and filled with lore that can be further explored to tell new stories. Aside from this live action series, I do hope we see another Cyberpunk anime from the folks at Studio Trigger.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
