Post title with restrictions
Xbox Series X has another startup title. To release the console, you can jump into the long-awaited open-world role-playing game Cyberpunk 2077. However, you must consider some restrictions, because currently you can only play the "pseudo" version.
So far, Halo Infinite has only been confirmed as the launch title of the Xbox Series X, but with Cyberpunk 2077, you now have another video game that can be played directly from Microsoft by issuing a new console. This was announced by Michal Nowakowski, responsible for company development at CD Projekt Red.

In an interview with British game website VGC, he confirmed that when the Xbox Series X console is launched, you can explore the huge world of "cyberpunk 2077" according to your preferences:
"About the Microsoft console, as I mentioned, we have confirmed: updates and cross-generation availability, so you can play games at the beginning of the next generation."

Two versions of Cyberpunk 2077 for Xbox Series X
CD Projekt Red has previously confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077 will become a cross-generation game, a video game and PS5 that is suitable for both the current console country [PS4 and Xbox One] and the next-generation hardware [Xbox Series X]] . However, the next-generation versions of PS4 and Xbox One are said to have obvious advantages.
As Nowakowski continues to say, Cyberpunk 2077, which will be released when the Xbox Series X is released, will not be a true next-generation version. With the release of the X Series X, you will only get the Xbox One variant of open world games, which will be played on the new console through Xbox backward compatibility.
"Anyway, when it comes to a true, fully functional next-generation version, we have not announced when it will be released, and I have nothing to say at this time."

To release the Xbox Series X, you must first use the "disguised" Cyberpunk 2077 Xbox One version. If you previously purchased the Xbox One version, developers hope to provide improved Xbox Series X variants for free in the future. Therefore, you do not have to pay twice. It is unclear when this improved version will be released.
PS5: Cyberpunk 2077 is not confirmed as a release title
But will Cyberpunk 2077 still appear as the PS5 release title? CD Projekt Red is currently unable to confirm whether their next major role-playing game after "The Witcher 3" can be played through the release of the new Sony console [PS4 or PS5 version]. PS5 also provides backward compatibility, but the Polish Developer Studio is still in negotiations with Sony.

Technically, the "real" Cyberpunk 2077 for PS5 and Xbox One may be better than the PS4 and Xbox One versions, after all, the games on PS5 can run on PC. The Xbox Series X obviously also has powerful graphics capabilities. Comparing the technology of the two consoles, you can find which next-generation hardware should be better.
