Cyberpunk 2, the highly anticipated sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, may include multiplayer features, according to a recent job posting by CD Projekt. The listing for a lead network engineer emphasizes developing and optimizing multiplayer systems, particularly focusing on latency, bandwidth, and server performance. This potential shift comes after CD Projekt scrapped plans for multiplayer in the original Cyberpunk 2077 due to its troubled launch. While speculation about multiplayer in Cyberpunk 2 has persisted, the studio’s commitment to addressing online gameplay across its franchises suggests these features could finally come to fruition.

Will Cyberpunk 2 have multiplayer features?

While CD Projekt has not officially confirmed multiplayer for Cyberpunk 2, recent job listings hint at plans to include multiplayer systems. Given the studio's previous interest in online gameplay, the inclusion of multiplayer is a strong possibility.

Cyberpunk 2077 was released to mixed reviews due to its technical issues, especially on last-gen consoles. The game is set in a dystopian future and features a detailed open world, rich character customization, and an engaging narrative. Initial plans for multiplayer were scrapped to focus on improving the core experience, which has led to speculation about how the sequel will build upon the original's foundations.
