Keanu Reeveshas been in a lot of media content. His latest movieThe Matrix Resurrectionswas very poorly received but the actor was praised for his acting skills. His latest and upcoming projects includeJohn Wick 4and now, the role of Johnny Silverhand.
Cyberpunk 2077is developed by Polish game studio CD Projekt Red which is most notably known for creatingThe Witcherfranchise (the game version) includingThe Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. With expectations set high, and a tight deadline to follow, the studio releasedCyberpunk 2077under peer pressure which the game did not take lightly.
Offering choppy framerates, frequent crashes, and glitches in the game, the sales were affected badly. However, after almost 2 years to the release of the game, it has become playable and has been commanded for the creative storyline that CD Projekt Red is known for.
We do have some sad news for the ex-generational console gamers as the upcoming DLC will not be playable on Xbox One or the PS4 and will only be playable on Xbox One X/S and Stadia (and PC of course!)
A confirmed date is yet to be announced as of yet, but the expected time of the release ofPhantom Libertyis anticipated in 2023.
Keanu Reeves’John Wick 4is announced to be released on 24th March 2023 in theaters worldwide.
