CDPR defends Cyberpunk 2077 launch: \u201cIt became cool to dislike it\u201d CD Projekt REDCD Projekt Red\u2019s vice president of communications is sticking up for the buggy launch of Cyberpunk 2077. Many players started experiencing the most ridiculous glitches during Cyberpunk 2077\u2019s launch back in December 2020 \u2013 especially on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Additional complaints ranged from a broken loot system to unhelpful weapon mods. As a result, CDPR apologized for the game\u2019s laggy launch and started issuing refunds for users even past the two-hour playtime mark. However, some people had trouble getting their money back with customer support. Despite Cyberpunk 2077\u2019s rough beginnings, a CDPR executive defended it for being \u201cway better\u201d than received. CDPR PR vice president claims Cyberpunk 2077 wasn\u2019t that bad In an interview with GamesIndustry.biz, CD Projekt\u2019s VP of PR and communication Micha\u0142 Platkow-Gilewski discussed the release of Cyberpunk 2077. \u201cI actually believe Cyberpunk on launch was way better than it was received, and even the first reviews were positive,\u201d he said. \u201cThen it became a cool thing not to like it. We went from hero to zero really fast.\u201d \u201cThat was the tough moment. We didn\u2019t know what was happening. We knew that the game is great, yes we can improve it, yes we need to take time to do it, and we need to rebuild some stuff. That took us a lot of time, but I don\u2019t believe we were ever broken. We were always like: Let\u2019s do this.\u201d In September 2022, CD Projekt Red confirmed the development of Cyberpunk 2077 DLC. The upcoming expansion \u2013 Phantom Liberty \u2013 will release on September 26, 2023, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC. The Phantom Liberty DLC follows players in Night City alongside Idris Elba\u2019s character \u2013 NUSA sleeper agent Solomon Reed. The $30 expansion also introduces a new skill tree and abilities to utilize as a brawler, netrunner, or ruthless mercenary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
