Cyberpunk 2077 has finally achieved a “Very Positive” review score on Steam

The CDPR team that worked on and is still working on Cyberpunk 2077 has a new milestone to celebrate. After almost three years and 546,484 Steam reviews, the game has finally clawed its way to an overall “Very Positive” score on Steam, with 80% of the users who bought it on the platform recommending the game.

While recent Cyberpunk 2077 reviews have been “Very Positive” on Steam for quite some time, it takes a lot of reviews for a game to push its overall review total up over time, particularly if you begin as Cyberpunk 2077 did. While the PC was the best platform to play the game at launch, it was still considered problematic and lacked a slew of features, which led fans to vocalise and write about their discontent with the game.

You have no idea how much it means ??

Thank you so much for all this reviews! Not taking any of it for granted, still lots to be done to get back your trust ? https://t.co/h2UoJ4fnot

Between then and now, there's a redemption chapter in the game's history that ranks with No Man's Sky as one of gaming's greatest comebacks. CDPR placed DLC aside and worked over two years on optimising performance, fixing tens of thousands of bugs, and introducing quality-of-life updates and gameplay enhancements. Add all these to the recent introduction of an “Overdrive” ray-tracing mode, and you have one of the best-looking PC games on the market.

Now that most of it is fixed and the game runs better (and gamers have also upgraded their systems), people are recommending the game more than ever. The only problem is that it took almost three years for the game to be in the state that many were hoping it would be at launch.

However, this story has yet to end, and Cyberpunk 2077 will get a new expansion soon. Phantom Liberty, which hopefully will release in an acceptable state at least. The expansion will work much like a reboot of the game, revamping existing systems and introducing new ones, as well as bringing a new story.
