Absolutely day one. After how amazing The Witcher 3 was, I'll buy anything they make of that caliber. Hoping its out by 2018.
Best wishes.

It will be a waste of resources if they spend time working on it for X1 and PS4 only to get pushed back to next generation.
Would make sense if they can get it done in time for cross-gen.

Although I was hoping there was a third expansion coming (I'm not ready to leave this world!), I believe in CDPR.

One of my most wanted games and I don't even really care about The Witcher.

Well, wouldn't Blood & Wine be pretty much done by now? Probably just a small team fixing bugs and doing QA.
They've been working on Witcher games for close to a decade by now. Time to move onto something new. I don't know what Cyberpunk 2077 is but if it's as well made as The Witcher 3 I'll definitely be picking it up.

I dont know if a cyberpunk themed story will still be interesting to today generation.

No, it's just going to be a late current-gen game.
I doubt CDPR is large enough to keep their design team divided for long periods of time, if they want produce TW3 scale of game in timely manner.

CB2077 announcement trailer from 2 years ago, gives nice idea about world and themes we are to expect; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P99qJGrPNLs

Nice, can NOT wait to see what CDPR is cooking.
Cyberpunk 2077 aiming for a holiday 2017 release and will be delayed to spring 2018.

This game is going to be a long way away. 2019 at the earliest if it has a similar dev time as Witcher 2 to 3. I'd be shocked if it made it onto this gen of consoles.
Cant wait to see CDPR take on neon cyber future though.

Well crud. My Pascal card that I don't even have yet will be old and antiquated by then.

CDPR game? Day fucking one. My favorite devs out there.
haha, what? It's clearly the way a lot of fiction is going as those topics become more and more relevant.

I don't even want to think about it, it must be so far off...

In 2025 when this game comes out we will be in the cyberpunk future.
It will be a contemporary modern day story to us then.
Yeah, after TW3 I'll be picking up whatever they make next day 1. I'm seriously pumped for Cyberpunk it's a great setting for a big sprawling RPG and I'm excited to see what CDPR can do without having to work with a pre-defined set of characters.
After Hearts of Stone I have no doubt that Blood and Wine is going to be incredible too.

Cant wait to play this the same day as Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Shenmue 3
I doubt that. Witcher 3 is running REDengine 3 [1 & 2 were used for TW2's versions] and I expect CB2077 to run on same REDengine 3, or slightly updated version. Especially if they are targeting current-gen HW and we have seen what happens when you put REDengine 3 on current-gen. It has been rough and taken patch or two.

So this will be kind of like Bladerunner-ish?

2019 at the earliest? They said that Cyberpunk would be even bigger than the Witcher 3
On one hand, It'll be hard for me to say goodbye to Geralt after being invested in his story (Also the possibility there may not be an Enhanced Edition to largely improve bigger problems of the game like gameplay, act 3, wild hunt, and so on)
On the other hand, I'd like to have The Witcher series to get some rest and I'm very interested to see what CDPR will bring on the table for a Cyberpunk-themed RPG.
Other than taking some questionable liberties from the novels, I thought they did a pretty good job adapting the games.
By bigger, they meant in terms of the project's scale and the gameplay systems (character customization, etc..)

With The Witcher 3, CDPR were working through a console generational transition, with less employees, while developing Red Engine 3 itself. With a larger staff, fully stabilized hardware specs and their engine locked, it shouldn't take as long.
Theoretically.....

Afaik the expansions were developed simultaneously with the main game by the Krakow studio, which is why they are of such high quality, they were not developed only in the timeframe since game's release. So the Krakow studio could continue on that..
Or they will throw everything they have on Cyberpunk.

I have nothing against The Witcher, I just don't think it good enough to be a GotY. That was merely me stating my opinion on it getting GotY and giving reasons for that opinion, but how is that shit posting in a thread full of "MGS 5, really?" or even all the "The Golden Joysticks are a shit show" posts?
Anyhow, Cyberpunk then. Really looking forward to hearing and seeing more about it, but if I recall correctly, we won't get anything before 2017.

I just remembered the hidden message in this trailer. Googled it now.
Do you like our latest creation? We certainly hope soYo may remember that we sometimes send you guys secret messages like this. It’s a great way for us to speak right to you instead of burying ourselves in corporate mumbo-jumbo so let’s begin!
First of all – have you noticed all the details in our teaser (yes, it’s a teaser. We’ll make a proper trailer in the future)? If you know the Cyberpunk setting there are some things you can spot, like implants – look for the weapon hands and the real skin – corporate emblems that should look familiar and more. Happy hunting!
You’re probably curious about the release date. It’s currently scheduled a way off in 2015 but in truth the delivery date is more like “when it’s done”. We will release Cyberpunk to you when we’re convinced it is nothing but pure, refined, unadulterated awesome. We want it to be the most kick ass futuristic RPG ever – OK, maybe this sounds pretty bully, but it is our actual goal! You judge if we deliver it!
Oh – and you may wonder why we announced our game so early before the release. The reason is that we’re still building our dev team so if you are a talented dude or dudette willing to work in a really different company (gamers rule & boring corporate stuff drools!) on a super ambitious project, send us your application right now!careers@cdprojektred.com
So you want to know what kind of game Cyberpunk 2077 will be? The short description is that it will be a story-heavy, nonlinear, open world RPG based on the well known Cyberpunk pen&paper system and setting. Building open world games is something we are mastering right now and we believe that properly joining nonlinear gameplay with an excellent story telling will bring a totally new quality. Mmm… We’ll tell some more about it soon!
And that’s not all that’s new. We are about the reveal our other project which is much closer to being completed and yes, it will also be a fully open-world game with an intense story. You can probably guess the game we’re talking about
So stay tuned as we will have quite a lot to show and tell you soon!
We are waiting for you on our newly created forum called Afterlife – what other name could we have chosen for it?
CD Projekt RED Team
Safe to say the schedule changed.
Actually holy hell. This game was announced BEFORE Witcher 3 was officially official.
Cyberpunk trailer was January 2013. Wild Hunt got announced in the Febuary.
