Cyberpunk 2077 Trailer: 10 Details & Gameplay Features You Totally Missed

10. Everything You Saw Was In-Game

Blink and you'll miss it, but right at the beginning of the trailer, we get a small notation saying all the footage is actually from Cyberpunk's "game engine".

Though it feels too good to be true, every outlet that then got to go behind the E3 curtain to watch the game in motion confirms this. Cyberpunk 2077 was demoed in real time on a high-end PC, retaining its 'CG look' in motion.

Understandably you have to imagine these sorts of graphics are going to be resigned to both the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, but after the controversy surrounding The Witcher 3's "downgrade" from first reveal to launch, CDPR won't be looking to make the same mistake twice.
