A cyberpunk-styled game that might even be similar to Cyberpunk 2077 is a great idea. Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto might seem worlds apart, as their games take very different paths, however, the two series are similar, especially if you want a detailed game environment. Rockstar has a real knack for adding amazing and compelling elements to the open world and that same sense of detail could help make an immersive cyberpunk environment.

There could be new and exciting things too. Rockstar could bring this same degree of detail. Taking an action adventure angle may really give fans what they’re craving! It may be inspired by Saints Row 4.. There might also be opportunities for other features.

  • Rockstar could fix some problems that plagued Cyberpunk 2077. It had issues with robotic NPCs and timing for events. Rockstar’s expertise with character development, combined with creating really immersive worlds could help alleviate that concern.
