A Rough Start for Cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk 2077 launched as one of the most anticipated games of its generation, but the release quickly became controversial.

While many players praised the world, story, and characters, the game had major technical issues, especially on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Sony Pulled the Game From the Store

After complaints about bugs, crashes, and poor performance, Sony removed Cyberpunk 2077 from the PlayStation Store.

This was a major moment in gaming because it is rare for such a high-profile game to be removed from sale after launch.

Refunds Were Offered

Players who bought the game digitally on PlayStation were offered refunds.

CD Projekt Red also promised updates and fixes, starting a long process of improving the game after its difficult release.

Why It Became Big News

The launch became one of the most talked-about gaming stories of 2020.

Cyberpunk 2077 had huge hype before release, so the gap between expectations and the console launch experience became a major topic across the gaming industry.
