Take on the role of V, a customizable character who is a highly-skilled mercenary of the Night City in Northern California.

Hype, Launch, Ray Tracing

Cyberpunk 2077 as we know it is one of the most anticipated games of last year or dare we say the last decade. It had been delayed three times last year but eventually released on December 10 to much fanfare.

They may have been rushed as it did launch with a few bugs here and there as reported by players on their playthroughs.

Ray tracing will be available with the next-gen console version which will be available sometime this year.

Cyberpunk 2077 No Longer Available On The PlayStation Store

PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners of the game are experiencing constant graphical issues and frame drops. This may be the reason why PlayStation removed the game from the PlayStation Store.

The game is set to launch for the next-generation consoles this year, hopefully, all the bugs are fixed by them.
