Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.1: Instead of Fixing the Game, New Update Introduces Game-Breaking Bug
Follow Us
The lackluster release of Cyberpunk 2077 coupled with poor performance on older-gen consoles dipped the game’s popularity. Adding insult to injury, the game also showcased similar but less severe performance issues for other platforms as well. Although, CD Projekt RED (CDPR) has promised to release routine updates to improve the performance.
Following up on the promise, CDPR rolled out patch 1.1 to fix the game, but it ended doing exactly the opposite. The existing performance issues and glitches has so far led to nearly 80% steam users abandoning the game. These issues have directly resulted in the studio offering refunds and a word of apology for the miserable state of the game.
