A live-action movie version of smash hit video game Cyberpunk 2077 is being developed by Paramount Pictures. The Hollywood studio is working with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura, known for his work on the Transformers films, and CD Projekt Red (CDPR), the developer of the sci-fi role-playing game. CDPR's joint-chief executive Michał Nowakowski said in a statement, external the company was excited about Paramount as a future partner who shares our creative ambitions for the Cyberpunk franchise. Details of the film's story, potential release date and casting information are yet to be revealed. Despite a troubled launch in 2020, the Cyberpunk 2077 video game, which stars Keanu Reeves, has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide.

Movie adaptations of video games are currently doing a brisk business, and today brings a new title into the fold. Deadline reports that Paramount Pictures is working on a live-action film set in the world of Cyberpunk 2077, a narrative-driven RPG from CD Projekt Red. The game developer is attached to produce the movie along with Lorenzo di Bonaventura, whose past producer credits on action movies run the gamut from Red and Shooter to The Meg and several Michael Bay Transformers flicks. It's unclear whether this is a separate endeavor from the early-stage news of a production deal with Anonymous Content announced back in 2023. Today's report is also very preliminary, with no suggestions of a plot or cast.

For ten years, Jonathan Blow has been working with a small team on what he believes is the biggest puzzle game ever made. The American developer is renowned as one of the fathers of the modern indie game movement, creating the genre-defining puzzle-platformer Braid in 2008. Now, a decade on from his last project, The Witness, The Order of the Sinking Star is due to be released on Thursday - a game with roughly 1,500 puzzles that he estimates could take around 500 hours to complete. So why make something the majority of players may never get even halfway through, let alone finish? Some people decide what to make based on what's practical or what makes business sense, Blow says.
