Cyberpunk 2077by CD Projekt Red is a title that creates a lot of hype amongst gamers and it will continue to do so right up until its release. That hype will definitely be magnified as we get to see more about this futuristic title atE3 this yearand who knows - maybe even a launch date? Whatever the CD Projekt devs decide to show us, it has become more and more obvious how far gaming has come, but sometimes we need a little remember of that in the form of some good old gaming nostalgia.
If you have never owned an Atari, you don’t know what your missing from classics that includePitfall!,Outlaw,Space Invaders,Frogger,and so many others so it was a wonderful surprise to seeCyberpunk 2077artistically recreated onto the box of an old Atari cartridge case - it’s quintessentially 80’s to the core. This particular design comes from concept designer Maciej Kuciara who works in the film industry in L.A.
It’s very possible you have seen many aspects of Maciej’s work as the past movie projects he participated in includeGhost in the Shell, Captain America: Civil War, Jupiter Ascending, Guardians of the Galaxy and X-Men: Days of Future Past. Movies aren’t his only venture - Maciej also was the Concept Artist on some well-known video games like The Last of Us, Crysisand,Deus Ex Mankind Divided.
Maciej offers up his creative secrets on how he creates such realistic concept designs in a short video, but you then have to pay a fee to know the rest which isn’t ideal, but he is a busy man and time is money after all. You can check out theYouTube videoif you’re interested or just pay a visit to Maciej’swebsite- some of his art is mindblowing!
