CD Project Red recently released a screenshot of a scene Cyberpunk 2077 with subtitles enabled, which immediately hurt the eyes of the internet. Fortunately, the publisher now says that players will have some options for that small text larger.
Here is the shot CD Project Red tweeted out on Friday:
“Those subtitles are next to impossible to read,” one person, who compounded many people’s fears, was tweeted back Sunday night. “Why make something no one can read that needs to be read?”
The developer responded by tweeting back, “You can customize it (color / size).” CD Project Red did not go into more detail, refusing when to expand Kotaku reach for comment, but it sounds at least that players will be able to make Cyberpunk 2077the subtitles stand more than The Witcher 3‘s.

Tiny-ass fonts have been a major issue for a number of years now. Some developers have addressed the issue through pat in options for sliders for font size and modes for large text. The Witcher 3 was one of the major offenders back when it first came out, to the point where I took screenshots of in-game books and article descriptions and sent them to my phone so I could view them later. CD Project Red finally patched The Witcher 3 to increase the text size, but years later it is still on the small side.
Hopefully a version of Cyberpunk 2077The subtitle options also apply to the rest of its text in the game.
