Just in case you were worried that CD Projekt Red would be joining the ranks of companies that won't be attending E3 this year, we have good news - Cyberpunk 2077 will be at the show.

The game's official Twitter account made clear that the much-anticipated RPG will be in attendance. It doesn't say in what capacity – so don't get too excited about a playable demo yet – but after last year's gameplay reveal we can be sure there'll be more to see.

For those of you asking, yes, we will be at E3 this year.

Worry about CDPR skipping the show is somewhat founded. E3 has become less important to major developers and publishers in recent years, with the likes of EA moving its showings off-site, and Sony skipping the event altogether in 2019.

That less crowded space could be seen as an opportunity for companies like CD Projekt to take the spotlight, however. Microsoft, for example, is reportedly going to debut its next-generation consoles at the show this year.

We know that it's a first-person RPG, that it's targeting current-gen consoles and that it looks incredible, but there's a lot more to discover about Cyberpunk.

If we're lucky, perhaps E3 might offer a release date more concrete than the current listing of "when it's ready"?
