It’s clear thatCyberpunk 2077has been riding high in recent weeks. This is primarily down to two things; Update 2.0 and the DLCPhantom Liberty. Both of these updates to the game have revolutionised the title, saving it from years of bad word of mouth.
It comes as no surprise that CD Projekt Red was already planning a sequel -already teased in-game- but with this bounce back on the original game, they might be pushing the pedal to the metal.

The investor call also highlighted the sales of2077withCD Projekt RedCEO, Adam Kiciński, announcing that the game has sold over 25 million copies since its December 2020 launch. This means the game is selling faster thanWitcher 3. One has to wonder how many of those units were sold since update 2.0 landed.
