Cyberpunk 2077 launched when it did because its devs wanted it "out the door" says CD Projekt Red CEO, but I wonder if he forgot about that reported mandatory crunch

Look, I know I don't need to tell you how much of a mess Cyberpunk 2077's launch was. There were tons of bugs, it didn't play smoothly, and your saves could even get corrupted fairly easily, so it wasn't an ideal experience at the time. The game has had something of a redemption arc in the almost six years since launch (one that CD Projekt Red thinks still needs to be finished), but despite whispers of investors pushing to get the game out the door at the time, joint CEO Michał Nowakowski says t

Cyberpunk 2077 Quest The Hunt, With Its Creepy Cartoon and Disturbing Braindance, Was Meant to Feel Like True Detective

Cyberpunk 2077 is nearly six years old, but fans are still reminiscing about some of its best parts, and its developers are still revealing fresh insights into its creation.

'I'd Take It in a Second' — Cyberpunk 2077 Player Resurgence Has Fans Calling on CD Projekt to Change Its Mind and Release More DLC

Cyberpunk 2077 is having a moment, with impressive player numbers on Steam fueled by a recent sale, hype for upcoming Netflix anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 and its collaboration with Wuthering Waves. And while Cyberpunk 2077 is a known quantity at this point, and CD Projekt has told fans not to expect any more DLC, fans are calling on the developer to change its mind and release more DLC — just like The Witcher 3 is getting.

Cyberpunk 2077 Is A Breathtaking Success, Reaching 40 Million Copies Sold

A(dam) smash(er) hit. When the Switch 2 released over a year back (gulp!), one of the most high-profile launch titles was Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition. Containing both the base game and the expansion story Phantom Liberty, it's a comprehensive package that looks and runs like a dream, making it an easy recommendation for Switch 2 owners. In fact, those on Switch 2 arguably got the best deal, since nearly five years prior, the game's reputation was in the gutter thanks to a disastrous launch

Cyberpunk 2077 Now an Indisputable Success at 40 Million Units Sold

Redemption story complete. Cyberpunk 2077 was quite rightly lambasted for the dire state it launched in almost six years ago, but what followed in the time since then has been nothing short of a staggering success. CD Projekt Red turned the RPG and the conversation surrounding it around to make it a sales triumph, as the developer has now confirmed over 40 million copies of the game have been sold. The stat accounts for sales made up until today, 3rd July 2026, and includes base game purchases a

Feature: Path-Traced Cyberpunk 2077 on PS5: We Got It Working - So How Does It Run?

Quake 2 RTX and Portal RTX too via PS5 Linux. Path tracing on the PlayStation 5. As far as we're aware, there's no shipping game or demo on the Sony console to use it, but the recent release of PS5 Linux is a game-changer. Anything that can be done on a Windows PC can now run on the Sony console, so there's nothing to stop users running Quake 2 RTX, Portal RTX or even Cyberpunk 2077 in RT Overdrive mode - and that's exactly what we've done for our lead story in this week's DF Direct Weekly.

Cyberpunk 2077 gets a whole new ending thanks to a mod aimed at folks keen on riding off into the sunset with potential partner Judy Alvarez

I'd class few of Cyberpunk 2077's endings as unflinchingly happy, most are at least a bit bittersweet - as you might expect, given the grave situation the game's protagonist finds themselves in. If you've ever wished the one added with the Phantom Liberty DLC was a tad more upbeat or wanted a conclusion that sees V run off with braindance-programming love interest Judy Alvarez, you're in luck, as a veteran Cyberpunk modder's now brought that to life.

Cyberpunk 2077's funkiest vehicle modder has resurrected a cut police gunship from the RPG's very first trailer

As you may have gathered by this point, I'm a sucker for a cool Cyberpunk 2077 mod. Hence, when I saw that the modder behind some of the RPG's most unique custom vehicles had dug up some of CD Projekt's abandoned models to bring to life a flying police interceptor that never made it into full game, you best believe I stuck that on my must cover list. It's called an and they've also put together a short quest to unlock it.

PSSR 2 update is stunning. We've just cruised around Night City after installing Cyberpunk 2077's new PS5 Pro update, and all we can say is... wow.
