10 Biggest Concerns With Upcoming 2023 Video Games
5. Chance At Redemption - Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty
The buggy release of Cyberpunk 2077 was one of the biggest disappointments in recent video game history. The massive hype generated around the title was quickly turned into equal amounts of hate and ridicule when the game was released broken, unpolished, and lacking many of the amazing features that were promised by CD Projekt RED.
Cyperpunk's only planned DLC, Phantom Liberty, might be CD Projekt's last chance at redeeming the title in the eyes of the public, which is why the studio put so much of its budget into it. However, it seems no amount of cash can convince the fans not to be skeptical about the final product.
The DLC will have to do a lot to overcome Cyberpunk's reputation, and people are concerned that this isn't something that can be accomplished within the confines of a single expansion for the game. Cyberpunk's on-going bug issues, underwhelming customization, and limited dialogue options are all things that need to be addressed, and CD Projekt's initial results with the base game don't set up many hopes.
This said, there are some Cyberpunk fans who want to believe the DLC will be a success, as whatever Phantom Liberty delivers is what Cyberpunk will be remembered for.
