Tech’s latest: Keanu Reeves

Last week, a certain ~trending~ celebrity surprised the crowd at Microsoft’s Xbox event to announce CD Projekt Red’s new game, Cyberpunk 2077. It was Keanu Reeves. 

Reeves took to the stage (Apple Event style 🤔) after the trailer to the open-world adventure aired, in which he plays a part. How the game works: The new RPG takes place in "Night City," where players will fight through a world of corporations and street-level games. It's a loose continuation of the Cyberpunk board game and sequel Cyberpunk 2020. If you don't remember those titles, that's because they were released in the late 80s early 90s, respectively. 

Still, the PH community was psyched: 

“For the love of Keanu” - Baris 

“KEANU REEVES!” - Amrith 

“This game already looked incredible... but adding Keanu just took it to a whole new level of awesome.” - Chad 

Reeves also announced that the game will come to Xbox One and Windows 10 on April 16, 2020. 

That’s a long ways away, so we’ve rounded up some entertainment for you in the meantime. Here’s a few games that have launched in the past year:
