Cyberpunk 2077 just got some really really bad news. Sony and Playstation have decided to pull the game from the store and offer full refunds from those who purchased the game on Playstation digitally. This marks an unprecedented move and likely due to the bugs, lag, and overall unfinished nature of Cyberpunk 2077 on base-PS4.

This is insane and unprecedented. This makes the figurative "hole" CDPR has to climb out of with Cyberpunk 2077 a lot deeper. I do question whether Sony has some ulterior motives here, but if this is just a statement against buggy launched it is definitely a step in the right direction. Companies need to be held accountable for this
That said I am still loving Cyberpunk on PC. Its a good game underneath the bugs. I hope we can see a No Many Sky type of recovery here…although it would be a lot nicer if it released in a complete state
You said it sounds personal (to Sony). Perhaps it has to do with the deal Microsoft made with CDPR. They can't be trusted to do a good job for their console.
Sucks for all the console players that the game ended up like this for them. Im 53 hours in on PC and have yet to encounter anything gamebreaking or poor performace. Sure, there are some funny bugs here and there but nothing that would hinder my progression. Hope they can fix the game enough so all the console players can enjoy the game as much as i have on PC and have a good time over the holidays.
Sony : "Buy a ps5 or you cant play cyberpunk"
What a shame. Game is amazing, at least on the ps5, it crashes once or twice every 5 hours. I can live with that for now
The first thing that came to mind when seeing this disaster was no man's sky.
I aggree with everyone who says it shouldn't have been released on last gen. I have a pretty mainstream 5800x rtx 2070 pc and I am really enjoying the game at 1440p 60fps with dlss in performance mode and a mix of medium high with raytraced reflections. Sure I had to manually edit the memory pool to get to 50-60 fps at all times, but every pc game requires tweaking for the idea experience for your particular system. A few glitches and one or two crashes, but not enough to ruin the experience. Way better than what we got with Fallout 76 as well. I also bought the game on my xbox one x, and have it installed on an external ssd, and it is right up there with red dead redemption 2 as one of the best looking and games on the system. Similar framerate too. I really don't know what the issue is. Anyone who thought they should get this game on base last gen consoles and is actually upset about the poor visuals and performance made a poor choice. Nearly every game that came out in the last year on xbox looks and plays pretty bad on the base xbox one.
They’ll offer a refund of the $60 then re-release the game for PS5 only next month for 70.
The deeper story is console developers are trying to look like the victims and distracting the public from the fact that they Ok'd the game
I commend Sony for standing up to these supposed AAA developers who release broken and unfinished games, it's just a shame that it had to be CDPR when a company like Bethesda is so much more deserving of this sort of strong arm action based on how Fallout 76 has been handled. Thankfully for Bethesda though they're now under Microsoft's wing so they don't have much to worry about, they can keep churning out garbage products and the fanboys will soak it up. I hope CDPR is able to recover from this. They definitely showed more integrity than Bethesda ever has concerning their raging dumpster fire of a game.
That you believe a few patches will fix this game is amusing. There is months of work to get the game in an OK state. To get it to release state there is 12+ months worth of work.
Last week has been absolutely comical
Their stock plummeted literally the day after the game released.
7:14 that was sick tbh
So happy Halo: Infinite got delayed, this is a cursed year.
I'm sure the last generation, preventing reviews before release the clear deception dishonesty may have tipped the scales. That combined with an unsatisfactory patch and dates of patches they came to realise you cannot charge 60/70 quid for a product that clearly isnt finished, in fact you shouldn't be selling it. It's probably to protect their image and the Sony brand. Hopefully this could be the kickstarter to publishers that release it now patch it later wont be tolerated anymore.
CDPR and sony reached a Agreement together to pull it from the store (look up at CDPR homepage)
Would have been a great PC game if they focussed more time on finishing it than trying to get it to work on crappy consoles :/
I think you nailed it on the head – that when CDPR put out a press release that ran counter to established policies for Sony and Microsoft that it became more personal for at least Sony. ( It had to have cost them a great deal of money and stress for their staff to have to deal with angry and confused consumers looking for refunds that Sony did not agree to. So they made a blanket decision that the developer should have made. It will save Sony money in staff retention alone and hopefully, help cure CDPR of their hubris.) It is really interesting to watch CDPR and how they have taken a cue from the Corpos in their own game. Perhaps they have spent too long thinking of corrupt corporate storylines that they have fallen into one of their own…
Check out my Neo I made on Cyberpunk 2077 https://youtu.be/xqMKIPQO3fw
Honestly it never should of released on ps4, other then that the games doing pretty fine. Specially since they've already covered the cost it took to develop the game by day one. Frankly given the complaints about the witcher 3 that made them cut content that the barely 3-4 years of dev time amoung covid as well Small issues were bound to happen tbh but overall still a pretty good game.. on next gen/pc ofc
I’ve got an Xbox one and I’m getting cyberpunk for Christmas and knowing all this what should I do?
Sony players clearly ain't play skyrim 🙄 and it shows
I like the full refunds, but I don't think it should've been pulled from the store. People who want to play the game as it is now should be able to do that. By this point, they obviously know what they're getting into
can you still play the game after getting refund
The game should have NEVER been released on last-gen anyways !!!!
Can xbox now slap a “xbox exclusive” sticker on cyberpunk now? Funny other fact in the xbox store there is no page for reviews on cyberpunk and so many other games for me.
Ps.:i feel bad for the people that are having trouble on old consoles, i believe a refund being available is the right thing. Like i have expressed before though until now my xbox one x has been void in the “worth it” department until now. (Tv doesnt do 4k as advertised –_-) i have a couple of problems yes but i have done almost every sidequest i could find in exception of 4 & am at the “turning point” quest. [78 hours played, 3 actual crashes, reduced framerate for 38 minutes collectively, two side quests that bugged out) thats been my experience.]
this game is just like Fallout4, fun shooter but very poor rpg
Sony be like https://youtu.be/_IExD-J4_F8?t=59
Honestly, i think sony just shot themselves in the foot, with a quad barrel fully charged shotgun…..
PS: "our console wont run it"
Xbox : "Ours will…"
ALSO They both had to know how the game was going to run, its their own fault.
ALSO ALSO, is this something to do with the ps5 ben delayed? because lets be real, it isn't been scalped, its been held back.
Hate pandering, just wanted to let you know why i'm out. Wish ya all the best ciao
Enjoying every moment in game on one X, had a 3 crashes in the beginning and since then game runs without issues
It's broken on PS5 too. It's not just last gen consoles.
Matty pointed out how jeff grub said that because it was such a big game CDPR just told sony and Microsoft "hey can we skip certification, we promise itll be fixed before release" and they let them pass certification
I'm on pc and gaming in 4k I don't have any issues small stuff but nothing major
And I almost pre ordered the game then thought the games released recently have been shocking in terms of performance so I waited. Now this happens. Lol
Still glad I didn't pre-order and support buggy releases.
And then console players says that consoles are better.. Psh
How much is performance/crashes, and how much is it being FPS instead of RPG?
WHY HASNT THE GAME GONE ON SALE YET
I have logged 42 hours on my fat ps4
Lol but yet ark is still on there that runs at 15fps in right place and i can name many more with bad lag fps so they need to make up there mind i spent 60 on ark and had really bad fps/lag wors than this
bUt Fo76 WaS wOrSe
Yeah okay buddy.
HA. They didn’t want a fo76 PR disaster typa mess on their hands. Smart. Glad to see these devs actually are about their work.
They should offer to refund console users their console purchases as well. That's the only way to fix the issue. People still buying into that antiquated business model are the ones holding everyone back.
Playing on PC and have had no problems! Its a great game!
It’s definitely personal. Or the devs are actually trying to show they care about their work now.
There is a high probability that the latest events will destroy CDPR. It is almost impossible to return such a number of video games without consequences for CDPR.
Its bad business to allow your company to be bad mouthed, especially for a product that isn't yours. When CDPR promised gamers refunds they brought Sony into it and when Sony stuck to their policies THEY became a target. They decided it was a prudent business decision, all told, to refund, take the loss, and punish the people who dragged them into it. This isn't about the game, thats why 76 was never pulled. This is about CDPR forcing Sonys hand.
