Once you have your pre-load taken care of, here's exactly when CD Projekt Red will push the big unlock button and let you start playing Cyberpunk 2077 - again broken down by platform and timezone.
- On consoles: Cyberpunk 2077 will be released at midnight local time on December 10 - that's at the start of December 10, not the end.

Of course, if your copy of the game shipped out early, you don't need to wait at all - though CD Projekt Red kindly requests you don't record or stream any of it yet.
