To jump in, I don't think it's a good idea to split the information simply because it's game related. Fandom communities are, first and foremost, meant to cater to information regarding their respective topics, and that includes game related info in this case. This isn't like fan-made content either but is being worked on closely with the original author and it'd be very odd to go "no game stats allowed!" here when it's going to bring in a lot of traffic just from 2077, and it's counter-intuitive to send readers to another community. You can take a look how we did it in the Witcher community, and while it still has a few odd canon/non-canon issues going on, for the most part it's very easy for players to find lore, understand if it's canon or not by the split markers throughout a character's biography, and find walkthroughs for difficult quests (the comments alone can give you an idea how many come to the Witcher wiki not just for lore content but specific game related details). If you're worried about who will keep up the maintenance/quest info/item details, readers are generally very good about adding that, even if it's not all up within a month or year of the game's release.

Also, it's very likely 2077 items (particularly weapons) are going to require their own infobox anyways to better reflect the game information. This is something pretty much every game wiki knows and rolls with (for instance, Mass Effect wiki has some wonderful coders/editors who've even made each weapon's stats look like how it's shown in their repsective game for players to be able to compare stats without having to pull up their game to check). Going off that, trying to tell readers to just read the prima guide/rulebook wouldn't work for the same reason (they may have lost their copy, they may not be able to buy one where they are, they may be traveling and just need to check the stats while away from home, etc.) not to mention some of these guides themselves can have errors. Essentially the ultimate goal of the community should be to make that information easily accessible and act as the one-stop site for official content.

As a side note, it's best not to compare this wiki to the massive community that is Star Wars/Wookieepedia regarding what content should be included/not included. Setups they have are understandably not always going to work as well for much smaller communities, just like how how things smaller communties have may not work for them. It's ok to draw inspiration, but they're by no means the authority on what content should be allowed on all communities (as by that figure, ME would have to remove almost all their content, as would Gears of War, Deus Ex, Fallout, and practically every community that has both games and books/comics and other miscellaneous reading material).
