CD Projekt RED Ends the Speculation About Third-Person Mode
It’s official! CD Projekt RED has finally answered the burning question: There will be no third-person mode in Cyberpunk 2077. Fans hoping for a GTA-style update just got a reality check from the Polish studio.
Since Cyberpunk 2077’s release, a huge part of the community has been asking for a third-person mode to experience Night City from a whole new angle. Many dreamed of a massive update that would change the way we play, but CD Projekt RED has just made it clear: there are no plans for a third-person mode in future updates. The studio explained that such a change would be extremely complex and that they prefer to focus on other improvements and upcoming projects.
In Morocco, Cyberpunk 2077 has sparked huge debates—some players defend the game despite its rocky launch, while others were waiting for a GTA-style revolution. For many, switching to third-person is like going from black coffee to a creamy café latte: it changes everything! Lots of gamers wanted to admire their character strutting through Night City, especially after hours spent customizing their look. But CD Projekt RED is sticking to its original vision. The result? Frustration for some, understanding for others.
On X (formerly Twitter), reactions came fast: “Too bad, I wanted to see my character strolling through Casa in third-person!” said one Moroccan gamer. Others put things in perspective: “At least the game is still getting updates,” noted a local streamer. Gaming influencers are already comparing this situation to other games that tried (sometimes unsuccessfully) to switch perspectives.
Will this decision cool off the fanbase or spark more debate about the future of video games? CD Projekt RED promises to keep working on new content, but as for third-person mode, fans will have to keep waiting… or move on to another game. So, are you still down to get lost in Night City, even if you can’t see your character from behind?
