Cyberpunk 2077 Beta Invites are Fake, CD Projekt RED Warns

The excitement for CD Projekt RED’s Cyberpunk 2077 is palpable with the release just a few months away. So while it may be tempting to react to any email with a beta invitation, the developer is advising against it. In a series of tweets, it revealed that any beta invites that have been sent out over the past few weeks are “not from us.”

It also warned content creators who were contacted by any third party. “If you are being contacted by a third party claiming to be working with us (an ad agency for example), you can assume it’s not genuine.” Anything sent out will be directly from the official CD Projekt RED address.

Of course, one user couldn’t help but ask if there will be a beta. Unfortunately, the developer said there are no plans for this. This lines up with its earlier stance on a playable demo, which also isn’t happening due to requiring “a lot of resources and testing.”

Regardless, Cyberpunk 2077 is still slated to release on November 19th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC (with support for Xbox Series X and PS5 included). As for when we can expect new information, the next Night City Wire is apparently coming “soon.” Stay tuned for any updates.

1/2 If you recently received an email claiming to be granting you beta access to Cyberpunk 2077, it's not from us. Unfortunately, there have been more of these being sent out over the past few weeks. When we contact you via email, it'll always come from @ cdprojektred com address

2/2 Same goes for content creators. We always reach out directly from @ cdprojektred com domain. If you are being contacted by a third party claiming to be working with us (an ad agency for example), you can assume it's not genuine.
