Cyberpunk 2077 drops to $18–$20 across Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation

·1 views

CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 is currently discounted to as low as $17.99 on Steam and Xbox, and $19.99 on PlayStation, down from its usual $59.99 standard price. The Ultimate Edition, which bundles in the Phantom Liberty DLC, is also reduced to around $33–$35 across platforms. The game launched in 2020 to widespread criticism over severe bugs and performance issues, prompting Sony and Microsoft to offer extended refunds. Over subsequent years, CD Projekt Red overhauled the title through patches and a 2023 DLC expansion, transforming it into a well-regarded open-world RPG. The discounted pricing makes it a notable entry point for players who skipped the game at launch.
