CDProjekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 release date has been delayed if the reports and rumors are to be believed.

Cyberland has reported that Cyberpunk 2077's development was to receive a huge surge of progress as CDProjekt Red's development team was supposed to focus on the game after the Witcher 3's release date on February 2015 but that didn't pan out as CDProjekt Red has admitted that they would delay the release date of The Witcher 3 to polish the game thus delaying the development process of Cyberpunk 2077.

It was reported that the reported Fall 2015 release date of Cyberpunk 2077 could now be moved to Fall 2016 or even early 2017.

Below is full statement of CDProjekt Red about the delay of the Witcher 3:

"Ever since we started working on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we knew it would be an ambitious game. We wanted, and still aim, to give you an incredible experience, an epic adventure in a vast, completely open fantasy universe.

"The sheer size and complexity of The Witcher, key features of the title, have had a decisive impact on production. Now, nearing the end of our work, we see many details that need to be corrected. When we release the most important game in our studio's history, we must be absolutely sure that we did everything we could to limit any bugs to a level that will allow you to enjoy the game thoroughly.

"With this in mind, we took another look at current workloads and what they mean for the team. Even though everyone is working at full speed, we concluded that we need another 12 weeks, so we are shifting the release date of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt to May 19th, 2015.

"We owe you an apology. We set the release date too hastily. It's a hard lesson, one to take to heart for the future. We know what we want to do to make Wild Hunt one of the best RPGs you will ever play. And we continue to work hard to achieve just that. So, we apologize and ask for your trust.

"Thank you for the all support you show us on a daily basis. We truly do appreciate it. It has fueled us in our passion since the start and will continue to do so."
