Cyberpunk 2077 will be shorter but more replayable than The Witcher 3
A Q&A WITH DEVS REVEALS WE’LL SPEND LESS TIME IN NIGHT CITY THAN WE DID WITH GERALT.
Cyberpunk 2077’s main storyline and major side quests will be “a little shorter” than The Witcher 3, according to a Reddit user’s account of a Q&A with the CD Projekt Red team. User u/shavod writes that the developers believe the main story will be a little shorter than The Witcher 3, but the game will have “much higher replayability” than the developer’s last blockbuster title.
Despite this, the devs claim to have only added up the main storyline and major side quests, not “all the encounters and smaller quests”, which are currently unaccounted for. So, as far as completionists go, the entire length of the game and how it compares to The Witcher 3 is still unknown – it’s still entirely possible that a 100% run Cyberpunk 2077 ends up being longer than The Witcher 3 (not including those two massive DLCs).
