The Witcher dev announces Cyberpunk
by Andrew Yoon, May 30, 2012 10:35am PDTCD Projekt RED has formally announced their new game. Like The Witcher before it, the team's new project is actually a licensed game. Simply titled Cyberpunk, this new RPG is based on Mike Pondsmith's pen and paper RPG, also called Cyberpunk.
The new game promises to offer many of the traits that made The Witcher so critically acclaimed, including a "realistic and brutal" mature RPG. "We are not making a game for everyone," CD Projekt proudly declared when announcing the game.
Unlike in The Witcher, you'll be able to create your own character in Cyberpunk, with a slew of different classes to choose from. There will also be an arsenal of weapons, upgrades, and implants to choose from--as expected from a cyberpunk RPG.

I'm thinking he wants cyberpunk with a more conspicuously 80s neon and bright lights blade runner-esque aesthetic as opposed to a more 90s matrix/johnny mnemonic/lawnmower man sunglasses and trenchcoat aesthetic (though both are really genuinely cyberpunk when you get down to it)
