This means that the native PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of the game will launch at some point before the end of March. The reason why it's believed that the next-gen launch date of Cyberpunk 2077 will be disclosed during this stream is because CD Projekt Red has previously committed to releasing the upgraded version of the game before the end of Q1 2022.

In a new message that was revealed on social media, it was announced today that CD Projekt Red will be holding a stream on Twitch tomorrow that will kick off at 10am ET.
