Sony provides refunds to Cyberpunk 2077 buyers

One of the most anticipated games this year was Cyberpunk 2077, which was launched earlier this month with great success, when developer CDPR (CD Prokect RED) reportedly managed to sell over 8 million units as part of the early sale, at a cost of $ 60 per game (up to $ 80 in Israel ), And pocketed a huge sum of about half a billion dollars even before the game was actually launched.

Cyberpunk 2077 received rave reviews from reviewers on various websites around the world, but it quickly became clear that the game was full of not only warm words from critics, but also quite a few bugs and glitches, especially for gamers on Sony’s PlayStation consoles and Xbox’s previous generation (PS4 and Xbox One), though I can attest that glitches like characters disappearing and reappearing and crashes of the game I also experienced in the PS5 version I purchased myself as part of the early sale.

CDPR was quick to announce on Twitter that it would soon post an update that would resolve the game issues for console players, and also offered anyone seeking a refund for the game by contacting the company directly at [email protected].

For buyers of the game in Sony consoles there was no option for a refund for those who purchased the digital edition of the game, but now Sony is providing a first official reference to the issue, and in a tweet on its Twitter account the company states that it will offer “Full refund for players who purchased Cyberpunk 2077 through the PlayStation Store and are interested in a refund“.
