Cyberpunk 2077 Release Date

One of the most highly anticipated upcoming games, Cyberpunk 2077, has been in the news a lot lately.  From their reveal at E3 with an incredible trailer, to their secret, behind the scenes demo that garnered rave reviews, to a recent 'controversy' in which far-left SJWs attacked them for their usual lunatic reasons that make no sense to any sane person, we've seen and heard a lot about Cyberpunk 2077 over the last few months, incredibly positive stuff, and the one big question that everyone has had is, when is this game coming out?  

As you likely are aware, sometimes it is online retailers, such as Amazon or Walmart, who break the big gaming news, whether it be release dates, game title announcements, they accidentally put information on their website before the company in question has made the announcement themselves.  With that in mind, last night I noted something on the Amazon website that is of great interest to me as a Cyberpunk 2077 fan, and I believe will be of interest to you as well.  Amazon, you see, has an Official Release Date for Cyberpunk 2077 on its website, live right now at the time of this writing!  

Now, of course as you know, often these announce dates are simply 'placeholders' and do not truly turn out to be Official Release Dates, and of course any announced Release Date is subject to change.  But having said all that, there's something about this release date announcement that is different from your usual release date, and it's a pretty big deal.  As you may recall, very often when a game is coming out some time in the distant future, but they don't know when exactly, they place a Release Date of December 31st of a certain year on it.  That seems to be the standard 'we don't really know' placeholder, and we all understand how that works and why they need to do that.  However, this release date was not December 31st, and that piques our interest a great deal.

The Release Date announced on the Amazon website for Cyberpunk 2077 is:  December 28th, 2018

The Cyberpunk 2077 team, to the best of my knowledge, has made no official announcement at the time of this writing, either to confirm or deny that this is in fact the correct Release Date.  So while of course we at the Gladiator Blog cannot confirm this is in fact the date that Cyberpunk 2077 will be released, this announcement follows closely an actual, official announcement from the Cyberpunk 2077 team at a recent Gaming event, in which they stated that the game is now fully playable, and only needs to be given final touches, bug-testing, etc.  That announcement seems to make this December 28th release date far more realistic.  Add to that this interesting thought, what better time for a game to come out than around the Christmas Holiday?  And if the game is Officially Released on December 28th, then Early Access could begin.....at Midnight on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day!  An absolutely brilliant Marketing decision, if in fact that is the decision they have made.

So while Gladiator Blog cannot confirm, at the time of this writing, that this is in fact the Official Release Date for Cyberpunk 2077, there are a lot of signs that point toward it being the case, so whether or not it turns out to be true, you the readers deserve to have this information for yourselves, to decide for yourselves whether you think it's the true date, and do with that information as you see fit.  You, the loyal readers of the Gladiator Blog, love getting Exclusive Scoops, and the Gladiator Blog  loves providing them for you.  If this turns out to not be Official, no harm done, but if it is indeed the official date, you are now among the first people in the entire world to know, and that's pretty cool!  So stay tuned to the Gladiator Blog for further updates, exclusive scoops, and tons of super cool stuff!
