Recently, reports of several bugs and performance issues on consoles have plagued the console version of the game. First, on base PS4, the game has seen resolution bounce between 900p and 720p. In addition, frame rate wise, the game has dipped as low as 17 fps while in the city. Not to mention, reports of textures not loading in or npc’s phasing through objects. As a matter of fact, the bugs in Cyberpunk 2077 will require extensive work to iron out.
Of course, these will tackle some issues, but it’s clear not everything will be fixed this soon. Moreover, this really only begins a long road to getting this game in a somewhat reliable state on consoles.
Cyberpunk 2077 released on December 10th, on PS4, Xbox, PC and Stadia. While, the game didn’t release in the best state, the games success, thus far, is staggering. To put it differently, the game broke records on Steam. Specifically, having over 1 million concurrent players on Steam on its first day.
