CD Projekt Red is reigniting its multiplayer aspirations for the Cyberpunk franchise, as evidenced by a recent job posting seeking expertise in “multiplayer network architecture.” This move suggests that the ambitious online component, initially planned and later scrapped for Cyberpunk 2077, may be back on the table for the sequel. The studio’s previous attempt to integrate multiplayer into the sprawling world of Night City faced significant hurdles, leading to its eventual cancellation. However, this new recruitment drive indicates a renewed commitment to exploring an online, potentially cooperative or competitive, experience within the Cyberpunk universe, aiming to build upon the lessons learned from 2077’s development and deliver a more robust and integrated multiplayer offering in the future.
