Pavel Sasko from CD Projekt RED thanked the game community for the thousands of positive reviews received on Steam over the past 30 days.
The open-world game’s release was so disastrous that CD Projekt investors were considering suing the studio for “materially misleading information” and Sony was refunding money to Cyberpunk 2077 players unhappy with the game’s performance on PS4, even after the usual two-hour playtime limit , before removing the game from sale entirely shortly after its release.
Now, three and a half years later and after the release of Phantom Liberty, 95% of the thousands of reviews left over the past month have been positive. According to Sasko, the team always counted on this, but did not believe that they would get to this point.
You have no idea how much this means to me. I was never close to giving up and always believed it was somehow possible, but I never thought I would actually see it.
Thank you very much for the second chance.
A sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 is in development, but we’ll have to wait a long time for it.
