Although a couple of delays<\/a> lowered the hype by a small amount, the community is ready to immerse themselves in the futuristic world on 19th November. <\/p>\n However, one section of the community, being Twitch streamers, wasn’t sure if they could even play the game to the fullest extend. If you haven’t heard, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA<\/a>) is giving streamers warnings for playing copyrighted music live on stream. This has led to creators<\/a> deleting years and years of clips for fear of the DMCA striking their channel.<\/p>\n it really is sad that I have to delete YEARS of content because of the chance of DMCA😔<\/p>\n — timthetatman👑 (@timthetatman) October 23, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n With Cyberpunk 2077 coming up around this same time, streamers were terrified that the music in-game would be copyrighted and therefore not allowed to be played on stream. However, CD Projekt RED has revealed that this won’t be an issue.<\/p>\n With open-world titles set in the modern age, there’s often music scattered throughout the game from today’s age. For example, Watch Dogs 2 and GTA 5 both feature music from hit artists that sometimes plays randomly when you get into a car or start a cutscene. <\/p>\n This music is often copyrighted and now, that would be a violation of the DMCA on Twitch. So, as Cyberpunk 2077 is set in a futuristic time period, streamers<\/a> were worried that music would play and a violation would occur. <\/p>\n @CyberpunkGame<\/a> Will you guys have a “streamer mode” option to mute Copyrighted Music that is licensed for the game so content creators don’t get DMCAs?<\/p>\n
