The world of video games is completely focused on the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 today. It's probably the game that has gathered more attention in recent years. Despite all the reviews that we have been able to read in the last few days saying that it still needs some bugs fixed, a massive number of players have decided to give it a go and are now roaming the streets of Night City as V.

Cyberpunk 2077 is much bigger than anyone expected, and the numbers to back it up are starting to show. It has become the biggest launch title on Steam with more than double the concurrent players than Fallout 4, which had the record previously. More than 1 million concurrent players at launch are beyond impressive. The patch that was rolled out to fix certain problems seems to have had quite an impact too because the game is getting about 70% of positive reviews on Valve's platform. But there are even more numbers about Cyberpunk 2077 launch appearing, and CD Projekt Red has revealed on Twitter that 8 million players preordered the game. About 26% of those were physical copies and 74% digital, with a percentage of 59% of those copies sold on PC and 41% on consoles. Those are dizzying numbers that point to the biggest launch ever in the story of video games. There is also a lot of people watching Cyberpunk 2077 streams on Twitch and other platforms, so the interest in the game is even bigger than what all those numbers represent.
