How big will the map be?

Thinking of one of the more recent games I have played with a large map, how big will Cyberpunk 2077's map be compared to something like Witcher 3? Do you think it will be around the same size or much smaller?

The book says it is roughly the city is 74 kilometres in size. If you compare this to Witcher 3, it is a lot smaller. It will be closer to the size of GTA V when you add in the side of the Badlands.

The Badlands will be double that. So we are looking at around 222 and GTA V comes in at 134 I believe so it  not just be close toe GTA V but be a good chunk larger.

Yeah it is easily over 200 km which is great. We will have a sizable map to explore but it won't be too overwhelming. I would not have liked this kind of game to have a humongous map. This is still pretty big but not to the point where I am put off by it. I am assuming quick travel will be a thing.

I am shocked to see people online (not here) thinking it was going to be small. I mean the GTA V map is pretty big for what it is worth but they wasted a lot of space with water. I don't think that will be the case with Cyberpunk 2077.

So it is going to be GTA V's map and a half in size. That is a good size honestly. I wasn't sure if it was going to be massive or small but this seems to be a good middle ground where it will be big enough to have hours of fun with but not so big you get lost.

I didn't know we could get exact numbers that way. Thanks for correcting me. I was under the impression it would be about the same size but knowing it is even larger hypes me up even more. Can't wait to explore it all.
