CD Projekt Red's "Cyberpunk 2077" was a no-show at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo.

When "The Witcher" devs took to the E3 stage during Xbox's press conference, people were half hoping to hear more information about its role playing game. Turns out that they are announcing the new "Gwent" card game instead.

The game was announced during CD Projekt Red's Group Summer Conference in 2012. Since then, the game developer has been keeping mum about details of the game.

CD Projekt Red Community Lead Marcin Momot confirmed last December that the game is still in development.

When asked on Twitter if "Cyberpunk 2077" will be ready by the end of 2016, Momot said, "We don't comment on rumors. The only thing we want to share now is we'll release 'Cyberpunk 2077' when we're done creating it."

Dualshockers reported that the game developer is planning on releasing "Cyberpunk 2077" between 2017 - 2021, according to CD Projekt's 2015 financial results, along with another AAA RPG title.

CD Projekt Red has amibitious plans for "Cyberpunk 2077", and is hoping to surpass the level that "The Witcher" series has set, according to Eurogamer. This is why the studio is not putting the game out there unless it exceeds all expectations.

"'Witcher 3' set a certain bar and we definitely cannot go lower," CD Projekt Red's co-founder Marcis Iwinski said. "It's always about improving and making new, pretty stuff, storytelling games and mechanics and what not."

Iwinski also said that the studio will not talk about "Cyberpunk 2077" until the game is ready.

Studio head Adam Badowski also said that "Cyberpunk 2077" needs to be "even better, even bigger, even more revolutionary" that what CD Projekt Red has originally set out to do, Gamespot reported.

Badowski, however, said that the game will not be released anytime soon, stressing that the studio still has a lot of work to do to make "Cyberpunk 2077" an outstanding game.

Reports were made about CD Projekt Red not even starting on "Cyberpunk 2077" yet, which visual effects artist Jose Texiera quickly denied.

"But the article that was written online was worded in a slightly click-bait-y type way that made it sound like we haven't even started really working on Cyberpunk yet," Texiera told Kotaku. "I didn't say that. We're just upgrading the tools. That's all I said."
