Cyberpunk 2077's first post-launch update is here with bug fixes and more

#Tech

Cyberpunk 2077's first bug-fixing update.

Update, December 12, 2020 (1 pm CT): The 1.04 hotfix update is now available for Xbox consoles as well, after a day's delay.

What you need to know

  • Cyberpunk 2077 has launched to critical acclaim, but it universally suffers from a myriad of bugs and issues.
  • To respond to these problems, CD Projekt RED is releasing the first of presumably many bug fixing patches.
  • The 1.04 update is rolling out now to PC and Playstation consoles, with lots of bug fixes in tow.
  • The update is also coming to Xbox platforms, but it'll take a little bit longer to arrive there.

Cyberpunk 2077 is officially out, but it's not without its fair share of known issues and bugs, which have caused a lot of headaches with potential players. Issues are particularly bad on consoles, with base Xbox Ones and PS4s struggling mightily with CD Projekt RED's hyper-ambitious open-world RPG. To help address some of these glaring issues, CDPR is releasing the first (of hopefully many) hotfixes for Cyberpunk 2077 with hotfix update 1.04.

For those who could have been susceptible to epileptic seizures while playing Cyberpunk 2077, this hotfix appears to include the first step towards fixing that major issue.

Cyberpunk 2077 has a ton of potential and is truly a special world and project, which we note in our Cyberpunk 2077 review, but the numerous glitches have been a serious detriment to the game's playability for players. This hotfix is all about fixing bugs, especially with quests, and should hopefully make the game more stable overall. The update is coming to PC and PS4 platforms first, but will come to Xbox One in the near future. This also applies to the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S as well as the PS5 via backward compatibility.

It's safe to assume that CDPR is planning lots of updates of this nature, which will help make the game it probably should have been at launch.

That doesn't mean the game isn't impressive enough to win over millions of players, with Cyberpunk 2077 reportedly becoming profitable just off pre-orders.
