2/25/2023 0 Comments Cyberpunk 2077 release date![]() ![]() While this is good news and great for those hopeful to play the Cyberpunk adventure when it is more polished, there is an obvious concern: What about the team? Many of the developers challenged investors openly, asking for accountability for poor communication with the community and the part their pressure played in the work culture surrounding this title. That being said, DLC has been bumped as a lower priority item on the task list while there are still issues needing to be addressed. The latest update also reaffirms that Cyberpunk 2077 free DLC plans are still intact. Still, there is more work to be done, work that the company recognizes and is actively working on. When I revisited the game following some of the improvements made to make it safer for those with epileptic tendencies, I saw a massive difference between that moment and when we first played for review purposes. Regarding the future of the game, CD Projekt Red promises that fixes the bugs reported is its top priority with several major hot fixes having already been deployed. Game Informer did not receive a console code until post-launch, and many of the usual outlets that provide reviews were left waiting until post-launch. The game released December 10, with some being able to play it on December 9, but the console codes sent out were massively restricted. Every extra day that we worked on the day zero update brought visible improvement - that’s why we started sending console codes for reviews on the 8th December, which was later than we had planned. ![]() When it comes to the review process for consoles, at the same time PC codes were sent out we were still working hard to improve the quality of the game on old-gen consoles. Come December 10th, launch day, we had a really good start with PC reviews, and while it’s not perfect, this is a version of the game we were, and still are, very proud of. ![]() We started sending out PC review keys to start the review process in the first week of December. When asked if the team tested older versions of the game to make sure it ran as promised, CDPR claimed that the internal testing done did not show most of the errors seen at launch, saying "As we got closer to launch, we saw significant improvements each and every day, and we really believed we'd deliver in the final day zero update." And things did not look super difficult at first, while we knew the hardware gap, ultimately, time has proven that we've underestimated the task." We made it even more difficult for ourselves by first wanting to make the game look epic on PCs and then adjusting it to consoles - especially old-gens. "In the game, everything is not stretched out over flat terrain where we can make things less taxing hardware-wise, but condensed in one big city and in a relatively loading-free environment. "Cyberpunk 2077 is huge in scope, it features a multitude of custom objects, interacting systems and mechanics," explained CD Projekt Red in its latest post. ![]() A big question following launch (and the reason behind the storefront delisting) is what happened to the last-gen console version of the game? While the company previously told investors that the last-gen versions were almost treated as an afterthought, the latest Q&A paints the picture that the studio thought it was in good shape. ![]()
