Looks like Cyperpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty is doing well in reviews - 90 so far in OpenCritic

Yea I looked at the reviews and hit that pre-order button. Shame this will be the last content DLC for Cyberpunk. The game had quite the redemption arc where it launched at a pretty bad state in every platform to one of the must play games. It's unfortunate that they are getting rid of the Red engine in favor of Unreal Engine 5 cause everything I have seen from UE5 thus far just makes me want to cringe.

Nice. Skimmed a few of them and sounds like if you liked or loved the origional, you're going to like this one too.

Recalling back.. I was one of those people who played the game near launch and enjoyed it a lot (my personal GOTY in 2020) so preordered a while back. But its nice to see it getting good reception. And for sure, a great comeback for the series. Lots of updates later, a Netflix series, small DLC and now a big expansion which looks amazing. Plus excited to see all the stuff being added in 2.0 which should bring some of the features; that tbf really should've been in the game in the first place and more. Also a bit sad that this will be the last expansion as there's a lot they could do with the series but I guess they are moving over to Witcher 4 and UE5. Which means we probably won't be seeing much from the franchise for a while after this launches.

Also idd, more game developers putting their eggs in the basket for one engine isn't great. Hopefully it doesn't end up like being during the seventh gen era of  consoles where everyone and their gran was using UE3, to now UE5. Where a lot of games felt very samey from not only a visual standpoint, but also on a techical level too. Not to mention how awful the engine runs on most hardware.
