In that sense, it’s not impossible that Cyberpunk 2077 could have its own redemption arc. Games such as Sea of Thieves, No Man’s Sky, Rainbow Six Siege and even Fallout 76 were able to overcome their rocky beginnings to eventually become highly successful. Since Phantom Liberty is coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X, I’m curious to see what, if any, features the expansion might implement that are possible only on modern hardware. Phantom Liberty being strictly “next-gen” seems like the right course of action. But it justified my belief that Cyberpunk 2077 would have fared better if it had launched only on systems that could handle it. This isn’t surprising, considering the power of the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Though the current-gen versions of Cyberpunk 2077 had their fair share of technical hiccups at launch, they ran far better than their last-gen counterparts. I think Cyberpunk 2077 would have fared better if it had only released on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X. In fact, one of the reasons why CD Projekt Red delayed the game to Decemwas because the it needed extra time to get the title running on last-gen systems. I find this fact interesting, considering that I've said game should never have come to PS4 and Xbox One.
Phantom Liberty is an expansion that’s coming only to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X.
If the DLC is universally praised, then perhaps there’s a chance for salvation. People love a good redemption story, but they might also enjoy seeing Cyberpunk 2077 take another critical drubbing. But I’m going to temper my expectations before diving in.Īnd even if Phantom Liberty is a well-put-together expansion, will it be enough to save the game? Anything related to this project, or developed by the studio, will face severe scrutiny, both warranted and unwarranted. Again, I genuinely enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077 despite its numerous technical issues and dated open-world design. Suffice it to say that, I, and likely many others, will approach this DLC with a healthy dose of skepticism. There's more, but this gives you an idea of what the game faced after launch. We've documented much of the game's history, including Cyberpunk 2077 being hit with a class action lawsuit, staff members detailing the game's disastrous development, Steam players ditching the game, the title's return to the PlayStation store after being pulled for six months and a round-up of its worst bugs.
