— Tom Warren (@tomwarren) February 14, 2022 For those still in doubt on whether the next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 is worth it – it seems that CD Projekt Red is releasing a free next-gen demo version of the title. At least, that’s what a new Spanish advertisement suggests. Roughly translated, the ad reads as “Free Trial Version” followed by a “Now Available” button. This button seemingly redirects to the official Cyberpunk 2077 webpage. A proper next-gen version of Cyberpunk 2077 was confirmed to be released during the first quarter of 2022. As covered earlier, updated cover art for the PS5 version already suggested that the next-gen version is indeed inbound. As always, we will keep you updated. For now, stay tuned. Cyberpunk 2077 is now available globally for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia. Of course, the title also works on the next-gen consoles, albeit without specific next-gen upgrades.
