Cyberpunk 2077 generated a lot of buzz over the past few years. From its ever-expanding file size to Keanu Reeves' involvement, the sci-fi open-world RPG sparked conversations even before anybody got their hands on it, thanks in large part to its pedigree. This is the new game from CD Projekt Red, the studio behind the acclaimed The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, often heralded as one of the best games of the last decade.

So does the actual content live up to its pre-release hype? Critics offered varying flavors of: It depends on what gameplay element you're looking at. Most applauded the game's beautiful technical construction and generally engaging RPG elements, but also noted the pre-release build's many bugs. Some critics also thought Cyberpunk 2077 was very tame, as opposed to its marketed edginess. For a game with "cyberpunk" in its title, a couple reviewers thought it wasn't revolutionary nor groundbreaking, and instead felt like a knit of past cultural and gaming references.

Cyberpunk 2077 is a pretty big game with a lot of side content, with some critics noting they weren't able to fully explore everything. Completion of Cyberpunk 2077's main storyline is estimated to be around 30 hours, and if you want to explore everything the game has to offer, it will be a much longer playtime.
