Here are the recommended system requirements for Cyberpunk 2077:
• OS: 64-bit Windows 10
• DirectX Version: DirectX 12
• Processor: Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
• Memory: 12 GB
• Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB or AMD Radeon R9 Fury
• Storage: SDD (70 GB)
Apart from the system requirements, CD Projekt released two new trailers showcasing Night City, the sprawling urban environment that will feature most of the game’s storyline, and the various gangs that players will come across in the game.
The “Postcards from Night City” video takes viewers around Night City showcasing the food, social life, politics, locations, inhabitants and the carnage that players will be served with once the game is released officially. Towards the end of the video, there’s a mention of a website called nightcity.love, which is a real site that promotes Night City. The website provides information on the city’s history, political figures and its districts. There are some nice screenshots of Night City in the website’s gallery but be careful of the ads that pop up which you need to close to read the content on the website.
The “Gangs of Night City” video showcases the various factions that inhabit Night City. So far these are the gangs that players will encounter in the game when playing as V (the main protagonist): Maelstrom, Valentinos, 6th Street, Voodoo Boys, Animals, Tyger Claws, Moxes, Wraiths, and Aldecaldos.
However, players won’t be able to join any of these gangs despite their heavy presence in Night City. As quest designer Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz explained during the online showcase, “V is a Merc. And Mercs of Night City are these unique distinct group that stick mostly to themselves. They can get jobs from different factions. Because of this, nobody will ever trust a Merc to be one of them.” Instead, V will mainly stick to Afterlife, a club in Night City that serves as a sort of a Mercenary home base.
“The Afterlife are these groups of Mercs—this legendary group of Mercenaries in Night City. They get the best jobs, they get the most money, the best clients, and so on. So if you want to become a legend in Night City, you are going to the Afterlife,” Tomaszkiewicz explained.
