    Dont buy it guys! This Game is Joke and biggest scam of the history of games on PS4. But it was also my mistake that i bought this game on day one. It is unplayable and the graphics looks awfull and i have doubts that patches can make it working. And i dont take argument that PS4 is 7 years old hardware. This was how long in development 9 years?

    Played on PS5 via Backwards Compatibility.

    There is evidence of an excellent game here and the frame rate feels solid on the PS5, but the game was clearly not ready for release on console. In its current state, the game is borderline non-functional. Frequent crashes force you to restart, losing both time and progress. Visual bugs, texture pop-in, missing assets, low resolution, alone

    Visual bugs, texture pop-in, missing assets, low resolution, alone these issues would be disappointing, however, taking the frequent crashes into account, Sony should offer refunds to everyone who wants them and this should spend another few months in the oven.

    A delayed console release would have been preferable to the release we received. Do not purchase the game at this point.

    For your own sake, DONT BUY THIS GAME. You have been warned. Map looks like sandpaper. If I kept writing it would be a 15k essay. They have already made 400mill just of preorder for a game that’s should be a ps2

    I've experienced four crashes in the first 7 and a half hours, multiple glitches and bugs, and the graphical fidelity, including anti-aliasing and fuzziness, is bad. Sometimes the character models look great and you can see what might've been. Other times, you notice the blocky, blotchy textures, which, I guess, is to be expected for an open-world PS4 game.

    The shooting isn't very fun.

    The shooting isn't very fun. There is no controller rumble when you shoot and it feel unsatisfying. The quests are pretty standard for an RPG, but navigating the map is a chore. Exploring is a little bit of fun, but it gets old pretty quickly. The maps are big and impressive, but there's not much to interact with or do outside of experiencing various features for the first time. The RPG elements feel tacked on and inconsequential.

    My favorite part of this game is just exploring each area once and gawking at the last-gen graphics. It's disappointing that CDPR didn't send out console codes for reviewers because I would've liked to know what I was getting into when I bought the game.

    I assume the game itself is great from what I hear. Unfortunately it is nearly impossible for me to play it due to the numerous bugs and glitches on the older gen consoles.

    Unplayable on PS4. Missing textures, low frame rates and resolutions. No life or immersion in Night City - that’s when it’s not crashing. So incredibly disappointed

    Playing the Ps4 version on the Ps5. There's major framerate problems making entire parts of the city nearly unplayable, lots of crashes and bugs everywhere you look.

    I can't believe CDPR released another game in this state, and expect us to just wait and hope they can fix it eventually

    Can't really get far enough in the game without it crashing to tell if I like it (running on PS5). Some elements are cool. There is nothing groundbreaking here though. Combat is okay, but controls are loose. Has bits from GTA, Batman, Watchdogs, and a Technomancer feel. At times the game looks great, others there is just too much visual noise.

    First off I’d like to say I’m on PS5 but since there isn’t a next-gen version of this game (yet) we have to deal with the PS4 version, the game runs well in terms of frames, but once you get down to it the game looks absolutely terrible, cars look straight out of Minecraft, the game is also very buggy with cars floating, there’s also o tiny feature I hope comes with the next-gen version, aFirst off I’d like to say I’m on PS5 but since there isn’t a next-gen version of this game (yet) we have to deal with the PS4 version, the game runs well in terms of frames, but once you get down to it the game looks absolutely terrible, cars look straight out of Minecraft, the game is also very buggy with cars floating, there’s also o tiny feature I hope comes with the next-gen version, a FOV slider, especially after playing Cold War on 110 and Apex on 110 for almost 2 years, I get extremely sick after about 20 minutes in CyberPunk obviously the games huge and the old-gen version can’t have one on old hardware, I haven’t played the game on my PS4 but I’ve heard it isn’t very good, I’m definitely waiting for the PS5 version sometime next year, and if I were you I’d wait for it as well.

    1. Bugs
    - As commented by most players, the games is full of bugs, can even crash the games, or make the game impossible to proceed.
    - Items/Loot there but cant pick up. - I also encounter softlock area in the map, which I have to reload my game. 2. Poor design choices - It's very tedious to sell item with many quantities, I have to scroll one by one, instead of one button clear. -

    2. Poor design choices
    - It's very tedious to sell item with many quantities, I have to scroll one by one, instead of one button clear.
    - The duck/unduck button share with dialogue cancel button, which can cause accidentally skip dialogue.
    - There is not enough time for me to read dialogue choices, it keep forcing me to pick one super fast.
    - No consistent confirm/yes button. some of them i press X, some of them I press square. Please be consistent.
    - The driving experience is really bad. The car is too hard to control and very floaty.
    - Personally I still much prefer 3rd person view, I feel more connected to my character in 3rd person.
    3. False marketing
    - CDPR claimed the game work well in PS4, obviously not.
    - They promised no compromises on 18+ materials, but I see a lot censorship even my censor option is off. Also not enough gore when shoot on opponent.
    - I know this from other review, romance choices and progression is disappointing, especially for a RPG game.
    - CDPR claim they stand on LGBT+ community, but from the characters creation option, the game still draw a line between binary of male and female (based on voice), non-binary group representative is diluted way too much.
    4. **** business practices
    - No review on console version prior to launch, and stopping reviewer post game footage and review console is not fair to console players.
    - CDPR employees are forced to crunch the game by hook and by crook, and this is the result that we get. Again falsely claim by CDPR top management employees are treated fairly and no crunch.

    Summary: The game is obviously made with PC in mind, no optimisation and though was implemented in the console version. Do aware the game was firstly announce to release on PS4, Xbox One and PC, by this standard, the game should work, at least playable state, in these 3 platforms at launch. Using pandemic as excuse is irresponsible and cheap giving the game was suppose to launch before the pandemic happen. This just show the poor management of CDPR, and the game is poorly coordinated and put together. Unless i see a massive change in the management, I lose my trust on CDPR in game development, and will not buy another game from them.

Underneath all of this mess is a great game just that it needs more work to get it running up to par on last gen system and even the current ones. Will definitely give this a 9 or even 10 out of 10 if CDPR can iron out all the bugs and glitches that are present in this current build. Expand

I want this company to do well and I pray that they keep updating this game to make it a 10 out of 10 but this game is simply unpolished and unfinished.

It actually frustrates me how many people only talk about the glitches in the graphics but there is so many other things that are wrong. I truly believe the team worked really hard on the story and the city itself, However the character customization in the immersion of the game is lacking big time. The fact that I can go into the city and there’s 10 pedestrians and five cars in the street is just unacceptable for the world. There’s only a handful of characters you can actually have a relationship with and none of them mean anything to you. Enemies take bullets like sponges no matter what difficulty you’re on. And the list goes on. I’m not gonna give up on this game I still want to play it a little bit every day but I really hope they acknowledge this **** up and continue to work on this game. This should be evident that crunch time does not work. This game is not polished and it should’ve been left in the oven to cook for longer. Again I’m not gonna give up on this game and I truly hope that they’re more transparent with the people that I’ve purchased this game. And please for anyone saying that Consol players shouldn’t have expected anything less you have no idea what you’re talking about. This game has been advertised on the console since it was announced, no console player expects their game to look like the pc version but the way the game looks at this point is completely unacceptable. I’m totally fine with them releasing patches constantly but they have to do it right they can’t half ass this. Not only do they have to address the buggy mess of the game is but they have to address the way cops are in the game and why you can’t look at your character while you buy/try on clothes and why we can’t customize vehicles or weapons these are things that should’ve been on the checklist and why it wasn’t is beyond me. I am optimistic of the future of this game but in the past couple days all I’ve felt is dread about how disappointing this game is. This really feels like a no man’s sky situation and I almost hope that it is so that the game can become better within time I’m fine with that. Such a beautiful game with such potential I am very hopeful of the future. Expand

    To many Bugs,glitches, frame rate drops. Looks dated on ps4 Pro. Best wait for patches and don't waste £50 yet. I've played roughly 9hrs and game has crashed/blue screened 4x + all the other little glitches and bugs just makes the game atm unenjoyable. I'm still scratching my head

    I launched Cyberpunk 2077 on my PS4 Slim several weeks after the release and most of the bugs were fixed, so I was able to play the game from start to finish. However, the quality of textures was painfully low, I usually had only 20-22 frames per second while driving around the city (with dips below 20), and some objects tended to disappear. The technical state and graphics of the PS4 version are awful, which is a shame, because the game itself has one of the best stories I have ever encountered, its gunplay is really good, and Night City is very impressive.

    Cyberpunk 2077 is a game brimming with potential, and it damn near reaches it on so many occasions, but the pitfalls of its development ultimately drag it down. There's still a lot to like here for RPG fans and lovers of the genre, but it's far from the generation-defining masterwork that the world was waiting for.
