Cyberpunk 2077 sales top 13 million after refunds

 Cyberpunk 2077 was so plagued by glitches that Sony pulled the title from its PlayStation store while Microsoft offered full refunds for Xbox users.


Polish gaming studio CD Projekt Red sold 13 million copies of its troubled Cyberpunk 2077 game by December 20, a figure which factors in the number of refund requests the company has received.


The studio’s awaited sales update doesn’t include information about the scale of refunds themselves, just providing the net sales number. Cyberpunk 2077 was so plagued by glitches that Sony pulled the title from its PlayStation store while Microsoft offered full refunds for Xbox users.

“This figure represents the estimated volume of retail sales across all hardware platforms (factoring in returns submitted by retail clients in brick-and-mortar also as digital storefronts), i.e. the ‘sell-through’ figure, less all refund requests e-mailed on to the corporate ,” CD Projekt said during a regulatory filing on Tuesday.

The sales figure amounts to about half the 12-month sales forecast during a Bloomberg survey of nine analysts, which was taken before Sony removed the sport from its store. the sport had quite 8 million pre-orders before the December 10 debut, which triggered a web outcry from players frustrated with its poor performance and a plunge in CD Projekt’s share price.


CD Projekt advanced 4.6% in Warsaw on Tuesday before the sales update was published. Since its peak on December 4, the corporate has lost 40% of its market price , or about 18 billion zloty ($5 billion.)
