Not if you played on old gen consoles. That was the worst gaming performance I ever experienced

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
I promised you the cyberpunk hate wouldn’t last you’re dealing with the next legitimate franchises.

They just couldn't resist that userbase that in the end cost them a lot more than it was worth it. We all knew it was bullshit that it could run on PS4/X1 when we saw the footage.

20 million copies as of September 2022 so that means 5 million additional copies sold in a year. Not bad, CDPR, not bad!

Was expecting a much bigger slice of the pie for consoles.

300K phantom liberty copies sold through GOG alone? Damn, that's quite good!

Good numbers, could have been so much more though had launch not been a clusterfuck.
Hard to understand console players are not buying the game more. This is one of the most next gen feeling games available imho.
I dont know the usual sales of a DLC but 3 millions in first week seems very high.

Someone should do the math to see if they've recouped the budget + marketing for the phantom liberty expansion since we have the splits per platform and store.

I enjoyed the hell out of this game (on PC) even on day 1. I did a second run with v1.5/RT Overdrive and it was even better.
Now I’m on my third run after patch 2.0 and it feels almost like a brand new game with all the overhauled gameplay mechanics + police AI improvements. Can’t wait to get back to it tonight. I haven’t even started the expansion content yet.
Best game of this generation so far + an amazing showcase for bleeding edge PC gaming. Success is well deserved.

Why? after what namco said about elden ring and armored core having 40% of sales on pc and bobby fuktic testimony revealing pc being the largest none mobile platform for cod it's time we stop assuming pc sales are a fraction of console sales.

It's been known for a long time that the vast majority of CDPR's customers are on PC. TW3 had something like 60% of its sales on PC which is what I was expecting for Cyberpunk. 78% is a bit crazy.

This makes me hopeful that PC will be the leading platform for the follow-up. As God intended.

That’s fantastic. It’s in my top 3 for this generation.

For CDPR it's always been as far as I'm aware.

Indeed, I just don't want that to change.
This reminds me of some developers who keep calling PC gamers pirates and treat them like disease.
It's called QUALITY Ubisoft.
Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur's Gate 3 both had DRM versions day 0 and sold millions on PC.

It's a fantastic game, now. I plan to continue my new playthrough after I do some landscaping, today.

They have to make it work on consoles, so the "leading platform" will always be the lowest common demoninator. Always.
Tho PC will probably have tons of exclusive features just like Cyberpunk has.
I'm glad for them. Currently replaying the game now with the 2.0 patch + expansion and its amazing.
Played it on launch date on the PS4, and despite it being a mess, it was a diamond in the rough. And now you can clearly see how brilliant the game is. Enjoyed it from the get go, but now its an amazing experience, very polished.
Still has tons of untaped potential, but the game has tons of heart in it. Its way more than the sum of its parts.

I'm not sure if you played One X / PS4 version and PC version (in my case with 3080) on release at the same time. I did. Console version felt like a demake. That's what I mean by PC being the leading platform. It clearly was.
Game was always very good, now it's seriously great.

Bigger question is how many copies were sold for peanuts. I saw this game as low as $10 on PC shortly after the utterly disastrous launch.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Sales: 3 million copies sold by first week of launch
68% of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty sales were on PC:
Gog is also Pc. It should be then be 78% on pc. Which sounds kind of implausible. Well i have it on ps5 and pc. Great addon.

Having the dev split between three places, one being half a world away, doesn't inspire confidence to me. I will definitely have low expectations for the sequel. Hope The Witcher 4 is being developed exclusively in Poland.

No it's 58% Steam. They overlap

Ah, this makes a bit more sense. 10% is part of the 68%.

You’ll get a sequel and you’ll like it
His deposition he said mobile was biggest, pc was about 24%, ps 16% xbox 8%.
It's 68, that gog 10% is part of the 68% slice.

What? Deserved since 2.0 at best.
Day one was a horrible mess of a lie, and CDPR lost a lot of trust.

Sure, I played them on release, PS4 and PC
Still dont agree with you calling PC the "leading platform". The game ran like shit on consoles, but they've dictated how much geometry, models and etc. CDPR should put in the environment, for example. They made the game while thinking about the consoles limitations.
An example: Phantom Liberty. It's much more taxing on the hardware 'cause they've designed it around the new consoles instead of old gen consoles. Not PC.
This is not a Crysis situation where they design the game around PC hardware, and years later we see a console version 'cause they are finally powerful enough to run it

No. Mods work just as well on GOG as on Steam.

Yeah, it's kind of hilarious the memory blockers people have put on in the last three years. Like it wasn't just last gen consoles, they literally had to issue an apology because of a bug that corrupted your PC save if you were holding too many items. The game was rushed as fuck regardless of where you played.

I mean, did they make the game while thinking of console limitations? It sounds like they made the game on PC, thinking of lower specs machines, and then worked on the console versions and made cutbacks from the low-spec PC version. And it's funny that you mention Crysis because the console port ran about as horribly as Cyberpunk did initially on last-gen consoles with horrible stalls and temporary drops to 0fps.
