Cyberpunk 2077: Time For An Upgrade
THE MOST ANTICIPATED GAME for years, Cyberpunk 2077 provides insight into all the modern complexities of game development.

The company admitted as much, and in an unprecedented move, the game was pulled from the PlayStation store, and everyone who purchased it was offered a full refund. Microsoft likewise offered full refunds for Xbox One players. The PC release running on modern hardware still has some issues, but nothing so far that I’ve considered fully showstopping. Maybe I got lucky, but more likely is the fact that I’m drastically exceeding the official minimum recommended specs.
