Since Cybperpunk 2077’s disastrous launch in December 2020, CDPR has been facing an uphill battle to redeem themselves and fix the plethora of issues with the game. While delays are always welcome, with early 2022 already jam-packed full of big titles, it feels like another missed opportunity for CDPR to make good on their promise to deliver an experience that represents their vision.
