This was just one of many announcements made by the Cyberpunk 2077 developer during the investor presentation today. Elsewhere we learned that fellow CDPR game The Witcher 4 is the start of a "new AAA RPG trilogy". Currently codenamed 'Polaris', this will be the start of many new games in The Witcher series.
Beyond this, we also found out about a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel codenamed 'Project Orion', which is also in development at the main studio. The game is apparently a "Cyberpunk 2077 sequel that will prove the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe." Finally, we also got told about Project Canis Majoris, which is a "story-driven RPG" also set in The Witcher universe.
