Cyberpunk 2077 has now surpassed 40 million copies sold worldwide, a notable milestone that highlights the game’s recovery following its problematic launch. This achievement is particularly relevant to players on PlayStation and Xbox, where the game initially faced numerous technical issues but has since seen extensive updates to improve its performance.
Originally released in December 2020, Cyberpunk 2077 was plagued by bugs and performance problems, especially on last-generation consoles. This led to criticism and even temporary removal from the PlayStation Store. However, developer CD Projekt Red has delivered multiple patches and improvements, gradually restoring the game’s reputation and player base.
The sales figure encompasses digital and physical copies sold across all platforms, including Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. This broad platform availability has contributed to its sustained commercial success despite early setbacks.
The game’s resurgence is important for console players as it underscores how a troubled launch can be followed by effective post-release support, improving user experience over time. Both Xbox and PlayStation owners have benefited from these efforts, seeing a progressively more stable and polished version of the game.
