GAME-scanner analysis

Cyberpunk 2077, which launched in December 2020, had a disastrous start, with numerous technical issues that led to the game being pulled from the PlayStation Store. Even so, the game has recovered and is now one of CD Projekt Red’s best-selling titles, with more than 40 million copies sold as of July 2026. This shows that the developer has been able to restore the game’s reputation through ongoing updates and expansions, such as the recently released Phantom Liberty.

Cyberpunk 2077’s sales figures are even outpacing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, highlighting the appeal of the cyberpunk setting and its gameplay systems. It’s notable that, despite its troubled launch, the game has managed to build and maintain a strong fanbase. The announcement of Cyberpunk 2 and the new Witcher games confirms that CD Projekt Red is keeping its focus on quality content, raising expectations for future releases.

For players, this means they can look forward to new content and improvements in the Cyberpunk franchise. Development on Cyberpunk 2 promises new stories and gameplay experiences, while updates for the current game continue to improve the experience. Players who may have passed on the game in the past because of technical issues may want to give it another shot now, especially with recent discounts making it more appealing.
