CD Projekt Red celebrates the fifth anniversary of Cyberpunk 2077 with a new City of Legends trailer, highlighting the journey from a rocky launch to a celebrated modern RPG staple.
Five years have passed since Night City first opened its doors to players worldwide. To celebrate the milestone, CD Projekt Red released the official City of Legends trailer, inviting the community to look back at the chaotic journeys of V and the complex narrative of the Phantom Liberty expansion. For a title that experienced one of the most turbulent industry launches in recent memory, reaching this anniversary marks a remarkable transformation.
The turnaround of the game stands as a defining modern gaming redemption arc. Through major updates, the 2.0 overhaul, and the critically acclaimed spy thriller expansion, the studio rebuilt player trust over several years. Content creators and community members spent countless hours streaming every hidden gig, secret ending, and easter egg, turning Night City into a permanent staple of modern gaming culture and streaming platforms alike.
As development officially shifts entirely toward the horizon and upcoming sequels, this anniversary offers a moment to reflect on how far the genre-defining RPG has come. The new trailer captures the emotional weight of the story and the sheer scale of the world left behind.
