Cyberpunk 2077 er lidt et blandingsprodukt. På den ene side er der tale om et dybt rollespil, hvor statistikker, tal og strategi afgør udfaldet af bestemte situationer, men på den anden side er der også her tale om et hurtigt, intenst skydespil.
Destruerbare omgivelser har dog den fordel at det passer ind i begge systemer, da det kan give nye muligheder, og samtidig skabe indlevelse på et visuelt niveau. Derfor har CD Projekt RED også lagt megen energi i netop denne del af spillet. I et interview med VG247 fortæller CD Projekt RED's Pawel Kapala, at det har været et stort fokus.
"We put a lot of emphasis on having destructible environments overall in our game. Players will experience things ranging from very simple, so for example, if you have a shootout in a bar, and you're shooting the environment, you will see glasses exploding, or things like beer bottles disintegrating on bullet impact. We wanted to have that feeling that, basically, after you're done with a shootout, the place where you had the shootout is destroyed."
"But this ranges up to very big portions of the level. We have stuff like destructible cover. So, we want the players to actually use some weapons to destroy the cover, so that the enemies are at a disadvantage. We have destructible glass. All of those things give you the feeling that the projectiles from your weapons actually carry power with them. And this also extends to stuff like, you will see bullet decals on most of the things, all of the things in the level. You will see different hit reactions. Like for example, if you hit a pipe with water in it, you will see the water sprouting from the place that you hit it. And this extends to nearly every object that we have in the game."
