Now Playing: Cyberpunk 2077 Review

Cyberpunk 2077 released in December and received swift criticism in particular for its PS4/Xbox One versions that had many bugs, oddities, and other issues. The problems were so pronounced that the game was removed from sale on PlayStation Network–and it’s still absent.

The problems with Cyberpunk 2077 sparked bigger changes at CD Projekt Red. Going forward, the company has promised to showcase its future games on all platforms, instead of higher-end ones specifically. Additionally, CD Projekt Red says it will stay quiet for much longer on its new games, instead opting to show them off when they are closer to release.

Despite the issues with Cyberpunk 2077 at launch, the game sold 13 million copies right out of the gate to become one of the most successful RPG launches of all time. CD Projekt Red has released a handful of major updates so far to address the game’s issues, the latest of which, 1.2, contained more than 500 fixes.

While the full picture isn’t clear at the moment, commentary from CDPR management has suggested that the planned standalone Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer game may no longer happen. Right now, CDPR is focused on fixing Cyberpunk 2077’s issues, and after that, the company plans to release the first of the game’s planned expansions.
