One of the most anticipated games of the generation, Cyberpunk 2077 is finally here, and as the hype of the new release reaches its peak, we decided to share the top streamers you should be keeping an eye on.

Eight years after the reveal trailer mysteriously popped up online, CD Projekt’s latest title is finally upon us. The excitement surrounding Cyberpunk 2077 has been immense over the years, but we can finally experience the sights and sounds of Night City.

Gamers around the world will be jumping on day one across multiple platforms. But if you can’t get your hands on a copy, waiting for the next-gen upgrade, or simply prefer to watch, then you’ve got plenty of options.

Given the magnitude of the release, most of the world’s biggest streamers will be sharing their experiences. From the biggest content creators on YouTube to internet celebs on Twitch, here’s who you should keep an eye on for the Cyberpunk 2077 launch.

It’s been a long road to Cyberpunk, but we’re finally here.

Dr Disrespect

There’s absolutely no looking past Dr Disrespect as someone to keep an eye on for fantastic content in Night City. Fitting his image and aesthetic incredibly well, there’s no surprise that he’ll be going to “a whole ‘nother level” with the game.

We’ve already seen a number of unique teasers from the Doc with his unrivaled attention to detail. Building up to his incredible event for ages, it’ll be something like no other when he streams on December 9th and beyond.

With various content creators actually in the game itself, perhaps there’s even a chance the two-time stumbles upon an in-game easter egg during his travels through Night City. 

Shroud

We already know how excited he is for the title, despite keeping his expectations in check. Recently linking the game to the widely acclaimed GTA 5, shroud explains that Cyberpunk might not come close to rivaling the giant.

“GTA 6 is going to be equally as hype, you know? I don’t know if Cyberpunk can beat that, but there’s a chance. But I doubt it, man. GTA is like, known. My Grandma knows GTA, you know what I mean? That’s the best thing you can say when you’re talking about games. If your grandma knows it, then you’re good.”

While it’s an RPG first and foremost, obviously Cyberpunk features incredibly robust FPS systems, too. If you’re not being stealthy through missions or running with a melee build, accuracy is the name of the game. There aren’t many players out there who will be able to show off the guns in Cyberpunk quite like shroud does.

xQc

One of the biggest names on Twitch, xQc is another one to keep an eye on for the launch of Cyberpunk 2077. He’s already eager to jump into the game as early as possible, so expect it to be a big time-sink for him over the coming weeks. 

As always, xQc will be one of the more entertaining personalities to watch in Night City. We’re sure things will be off the rails the moment he gets access to the full open world.

CohhCarnage

Cohh is probably one of the most hyped about Cyberpunk’s release. With a tie to GoG in the past and an incredibly huge fan of The Witcher 3, Carnage is sure to provide players with a unique experience compared to the others on the list.

Cohh immerses himself in the worlds he explores, taking the time to pursue each and every outlet possible that works with the character he chooses. Watching this Twitch stream will showcase a  slower, deeper experience against many of the top streamers. His community is full of mature, relaxed, and extremely friendly people, all about propagating good vibes.

Cohh also has an NPC of himself in the game. This is something he has known about for a while, previously sharing with fans little snippets of what that’ll look like. As he progresses through the gameplay and gets closer to it, the hype will be building for the community.

Twitter Gaming

Last but not least, there’s also an official Cyberpunk launch party stream hosted by Twitter Gaming. Developers will be jumping in and out of the broadcast to play and chat with the community, with chances of popular celebrities stopping by and joining the fun, too.

No matter who you decide to watch, expect to see vastly different experiences for the most popular streamers. Some will choose different Life-Paths, while others will veer off of the main story and focus on the nitty-gritty. 

Ultimately, Night City is finally here for the long haul. There’s a good chance many of these names will be streaming Cyberpunk 2077 for a good while.
