Looking to take the day off on Thursday December 10 to play Cyberpunk 2077? Well you might want to rethink that as Xbox has its eye on you.
In a fun jab at players intending to take the day off work or call in sick later this week, the official Xbox Twitter account has acknowledged everyone who's planning on being "unavailable" during the day with a cheeky nod:
With any big release, it's often joked about how people will take the week or weekend off, ready for those water cooler talks on Monday morning. There was even a myth that the majority of Japan takes the day off whenever a new Dragon Quest title releases.
That's not true, but we wouldn't be surprised if the number of people self-isolating with their next-gen consoles mysteriously increases over the next few days...
Will you be "unavailable" this coming Thursday? Let us know in the comments below, we won't tell!

I'll just quit
Microsoft Teams and the immovable yellow "Away" icon is the bane of my life.
All the reports of bugs and CDPR going out of their way to stop reviewers accessing the console versions early is really putting me off playing it day one.
Isn't there 2 big patches for consoles, I'm confident it will be okay
I used up all of my sick days so I am calling in dead.
I don't even remember when was last time I took time off work (one way or another) for game launch.
People be calling in to work "I broke my back"
I am waiting for the XSX version, so I’ll be going to work. 😞
I took off around the time Fallout 3 came out, which was by pure coincidence. I beat it on my vacation time, but it hadn't occurred to me to take time off specifically to play it.
