“Cyberpunk 2077” was supposed to be one of the biggest video games of the year, and many gamers were eagerly awaiting it. However, a few days after its release, Sony will remove the game from its store for now. The reasons are technical problems and health risks.
Sony is releasing the video game “Cyberpunk 2077” from its store, which was produced with immense effort, due to technical flaws. The Japanese company said on Friday that buyers who purchased the game from the PlayStation Store will be offered a full refund.
In recent days, users had complained of numerous software bugs. There were also warnings about the health risks posed by the game. “Cyberpunk 2077” will now be removed from the Playstation Store until further notice, Sony announced. The company justified the measure with the fact that it seeks “a high degree of customer satisfaction.”
Cyberpunk 2077 reviewer reported epileptic seizures
The video game, which is highly anticipated around the world, was released last week. From the beginning, the creators were forced to put a warning in “Cyberpunk 2077” after a critic reported on epileptic seizures. Polish development studio “CD Projekt Red” said it was looking for a “more permanent solution” to control health risk “as soon as possible”.
Several reviewers pointed out software bugs in the game. They accused Sony of offering an unfinished product in the store. The release date for “Cyberpunk 2077” had previously been postponed twice by “CD Projekt Red”.
The effort involved in making the game was enormous: For the English version, dialogue was recorded for a total of 450 hours, spoken by 125 actors, including Hollywood star Keanu Reeves. The Polish bank BOS estimated production costs at 270 million euros, which would make “Cyberpunk 2077” one of the most expensive video games ever developed.
