Cyberpunk 2077 has received mixed reviews from various sources as they noticed few bugs in the game. Though the developer has confirmed for a Day 1 patch with the fix to all the issues encountered, the reviewers felt little disturbed with their early release hands on the game. As remarked by Tom Marks of IGN,
In my experience, great open-world RPGs like The Witcher 3 or Skyrim aren't defined by the strength of their main story, but that of the side missions around it. With Cyberpunk 2077, developer CD Projekt Red has taken that philosophy and built an entire game out of it.
The game offers an engaging gameplay environment to the lustre of a dazzling open world RPG in the Night City. The hype continues for gamers as the date of release closes in with the developers confirms a Day 1 patch of 43, aside the preload of base game, would be released along with the game to address the bugs and glitches reviewed in the early stage.
