Microsoft’s new Smart Delivery feature will allow gamers to “play thousands of games across four generations that look and feel better than ever” by allowing players current and next-generation versions of cross-generation titles for only the price of one game. Smart Delivery will be available on all exclusive Xbox Game Studios titles, including Halo Infinite. Microsoft also shared that the technology will be available for all developers and publishers who can choose to “use it for titles that will release on Xbox One first and come to the Xbox Series X later.”
Additionally, IGN reported that CD Projekt Red is now Europe’s second most valuable game developer following Ubisoft. Besides Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red is also behind The Witcher video game franchise, including The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which has grown in popularity since the release of Netflix’s The Witcher series starring Henry Cavill and based on the books by Andrzej Sapkowski.
Cyberpunk 2077 is set in the fictional world of Night City, California in the year 2077. The world is broken while MegaCorps manage every aspect of life from the top floors of their sky-scraping fortresses. The streets are run by drug-pushing gangs, tech hustlers, and illegal braindance slingers. The in-between is where decadence, sex, and pop culture mix with violent crime, extreme poverty, and the unattainable promise of the American Dream.
