It feels almost surreal to say that Cyberpunk 2077 is, in fact, now here after the better part of a decade since its initial reveal. Overnight, the game became the best-selling PC game of all time and largely reception has been positive. Even so, it’s clear the game has a lot of technical issues and probably needed another delay in all honesty. However, CD Projekt RED has always been good about updating their titles, and we see the same here.
A hotfix update, 1.04, has been released for some versions of the game. You can see the list below or on the official website through here. The patch looks to update a lot of different things and aims at improving general stability as well as a lot of bug fixes. It also seems to tone down the flashing lights in the braindance sequences which was pointed out for potentially giving seizures. Some console-specific things, where the game is running the roughest, includes improving reflections as well as fixing a trophy issue on PS4 and a missing PT-BR VO for Xbox.
Cyberpunk 2077 is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Stadia. The update is live now on PS4 and PC with Xbox planned to come soon.
