Cyberpunk 2077 won't cost extra for next-gen consoles like PlayStation 5 & Xbox Series X

Cyberpunk 2077 seems to have garnered a fanbase even before the game has launched, thanks to Keanu Reeves appearance in its first trailer. However, it has also been subjected to a number of delays which has inched it closer to the release of the new generation of consoles all set to release later this year. The game will be debuting in November with the next-gen consoles dropping in a month later during the holiday season. It is expected that the games for the next-gen consoles will come at a higher price of extra $10 but Cyberpunk 2077 developer company has revealed that no such price hike will be taking place for the game.
