Now this is the Cyberpunk 2077 news that we've been waiting for. The game's ESRB rating has been made public, revealing some surprising little details. As you'd expect, the title's rocketed straight to a 'Mature' rating in the US due to graphic violence, scenes of a sexual nature, drug use, and very strong language.
But you've already seen the headline, and we're not making this up. The rating reads: "The game contains nudity and sexual material: Players can select a gender and customize their character; customization can include depictions of breasts, buttocks, and genitalia, as well as various sizes and combinations of genitals." In true cyberpunk fashion, it sounds as though you can modify your body however you want.
The rating also confirms that, as CD Projekt Red has previously said, motion captured sex scenes will play out in first-person. "Players can encounter events where they have the option to engage in sexual activities with other main characters or prostitutes—these brief sex scenes (from a first-person perspective) depict partially nude characters moaning suggestively while moving through various positions. Some scenes contain brief depictions of thrusting motions; other scenes depict a character's head moving towards a partner's crotch." All right, settle down.
Did you expect anything less of Cyberpunk 2077? Please don't get carried away in the comments section below.

Haha, this is awesome.
Gonne be a fun game to play through with the GF next to me on the couch.
OK you know this is gonna be abused right CDPR?
especially on P.C when the modders come in
I guess we can customise only male genitalia because you can't show uncensored vulvas in games.
Haha, this is the best article I've seen on Push Square.
You just can't fault it, even down to the phrasing and selective wording.
What’s the point of having this feature if the game is going to be entirely in first person mode? Stupid decision on CDPR’s part.
Finally I can be a real man.
@Akurusu What if you can look down while you're not wearing any pants and see it all?
Sorry Last of Us 2, seems like we now have a new GOTY lol
I remember when Conan Exiles released and people were making jokes about the customizable size of genitalia.
Then someone modded it to allow the male member to be at knee length.
I'm sure the modding community on PC will have a field day with goofy mods when this game releases.
Can you turn your willy into an actual weapon though? How far does this customisation go?
No. Not here in Japan. In the world’s most harsh country regarding censorship we will get a watered down, heavily censored version.
And to be clear, the lack of genitalia’s customization in Japan is the thing that worries me least. After CERO is done with the game I fear we’ll end up with a very different game than the rest of the world.
@ShogunRok You probably won’t. My thing is the entire game shouldn’t be in first person. It’s sure to cause motion sickness.
Oh dear, I'm afraid some guys or girls are going to get the wrong end of the stick.
@ShogunRok it would give a whole new meaning to "shooting your load" that's for sure
(sorry that was disgusting, i'll let myself out)
@ShogunRok ahhh the old pump action yoghurt rifle eh 😂
Yeah, I'm going to get distracted in the character creator playing around with the various sizes of everything.
@ShogunRok Finally someone is asking the right questions
My female V is gonna have bigger balls than Jackie.
@maruse Someone told me about Fashion Health a few days ago. Japanese culture never ceases to amaze me.
As for these game options, it might throw a spanner in the works for those male gamers who like to play as female characters. i wonder how many will (not have) the balls to take it to the next level?
Or will the guys just opt for a male character.
Decisions, decisions.
Oh, it's not clear. can we change our players gender throughout the game?
"combinations of genitals"... 🤔
Customizable genitals? This could open the door to the best microtransactions ever!
@Octane A wise man act appropriately when his girlfriend is watching.
I can finally have a small penis. Thank you, Project Red.
NO less I want from GTA 6. Thank you.
@Oscarjpc It's overhyped. I know.
I expectsome fern gully micro weiners....and the exact opposite😂
@Icey664 Japanese Tentacle Hermaphrodite READY GO!
This will be Mandingo vs. Meatcurtain Bonanza! Guess I should preorder now!
@maruse Maybe importing is an option if it's that bad in the end; or setting your console to another country and buying it digitally, does that work?
@ShogunRok
@Scollurio Too uncomfortable when riding a chopper.
@Flurpsel We need confirmation!
@Octane Importing in a good option, though I would rather go digital.
Maybe trying the US store might be a viable option? I don’t know I’ll have to check it out if the game ends up being too censored.
@Akurusu Hopefully you can adjust the FoV which will help with motion sickness. 3rd person games can also cause motion sickness although to a lesser degree.
Some other top tips, sit up straight and slightly back from your usual seating position. The main cause of simulation sickness is your brain thinks what you see is real so sitting away from the TV helps a ton.
"Various sizes and combinations" - That's it, I'm having boobs for testicles. Done deal.
Character customization doesn't have to get this deep but good for those thrilled about it. To me, seems like this game will be exactly what I'd expect from this dev with this kind of setting. It's the game I'm most hyped for after Ghost of Tsushima so hopefully CDPR delivers again.
@ShogunRok like the featured arm blades, but popping out of a different appendage.
Ouch.
Ok ok, so can you visit a shop and have a Prince Albert or something?
I'm sure Larry Blackmon of Cameo will have fun with Cyberpunk 2077.
To be fair, this is actually a pretty cool but rather... interesting way of ensuring your character can really represent you. It remains to be seen whether this covers intersex people but if you’re fully committed to making your character realistic, this game is looking pretty impressive, especially given CDPR’s rather misguided comments in the past. Shame first person means you won’t see your character much but I rarely played games like Skyrim in third person either.
Now I can finally make a "me" character with a smaller package so I don't feel like some kind of freak of nature while in the raw. Dream come true!
@Kidfunkadelic83 lol omg smh. Too much lolol
So, circumcised or uncircumcised is a choice? Good to know.
All i care about is the boobs .hopefully theres a lot of black woman in this game.wtf im talking about😒.word up son
Honestly, that just seems unnecessary. It feels like this “mature” to “push boundaries” rather than any practical purpose.
I did not know i needed this feature until now lol.
GOTY incoming
Betting this is a 100 hour game.
95 hours customising, 5 hour story.
If my character can't have beef curtains, it's no sale for me.
@Oscarjpc lol
I wonder if you should go at bit bigger. You know if you meet a girl and the temperature is freezing. Don’t want to shrink and embarrass ourselves
Let's hope the slider is long enough that I can accurately recreate myself in-game. 😏
lol at the image used for this article
Ok - so I suppose you must be able to customise the size of your mouth too......
Can I give myself 3 balls? And maybe customize the size and shape of my shaft? 🤔
Teeth better be an option.
I want mammary glands that can produce drugs! Maybe this game will finally allow me to live my dream!
This is nuts! Can't believe you didn't get a pun for the title in this one.
so customize genitals but no actual sex in the game? whats the freaking point
Conan Exiles also has “genitile customization” but it’s censored in USA. I’m sure this will be censored as well.
