What is there to see? The official information has so far been rather nebulous, to put it in a friendly way. In addition to »exclusive items« and a developer question and answer session, »surprises and more« await you. New gameplay from Cyberpunk 2077 or a release trailer would probably not be a "surprise". But who knows, maybe Keanu Reeves will drop by, supposedly he has something to do with the game.
