KUALA LUMPUR, January 25 – Remember Cyberpunk 2077? CD developer Projekt Red has announced the release of version 1.1, the game ‘s first major update aimed at fixing many of its weird bugs. The update is available for download across all platforms the game has released including PC, PlayStation 4 (PS4), Xbox One and Stadia.
The expected open game, set in a dystopian future, was famously deceived and put down by issues when it debuted in December 2020.
Worst of all, it was not easy to play on an old console. The problem was so severe that Sony had to remove the game from the PlayStation Store as many gamers expressed their frustration and dissatisfaction with the game. The maker offered full token refunds for the game on December 17th. Currently, Cyberpunk 2077 still did not return to the store.

Perhaps even more troubling is the fact that several gamers on the Projekt Red CD forum say that the game does not start after being patched. One member even goes back to an earlier version of the game.
It seems that this particular problem could be unique to the PC version of the game. Several forum members suggested removing any installed mods and subsequently verifying the integrity of their saved game files before running them again.
From the sound of things, CD developer Projekt Red still has plenty of fires to put out. Hopefully they can solve the above problems in their next child. – SoyaCincau
