Cyberpunk 2077 On PS4 And Xbox One Have Major Issues Right Now
/ Carlos HernandezCD Projekt RED’s highly anticipated open world RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, actually came out and while some are enjoying the game those playing the PS4 and Xbox One version paints a different picture as they experience a series of performance issues and bugs that’s hard to ignore.
Despite multiple delays and years of development, the PS4 and Xbox One version of Cyberpunk 2077 currently has the most issues being reported in social media with terrible frame rates, major pop-in, lower resolutions, environments not rendering fast enough, crashes, and more.
This is Cyberpunk 2077 - PS4 version 1.00. Resolution is literally below 720p and the game takes 20 seconds to load in textures. Inexcusable. Unfathomable. Unplayable. pic.twitter.com/AZ2OPTnkdL

Experience is different for many, be it crashes or silly boxy faces or cars disappearing. Not all reports claim that they have the day 1 patch installed, which is said to have fixed a series of issues and improved the game’s performance, but a lot of them reports they have the patch installed.

It’s a mixed bag in terms of what the public is experiencing as more reports come in through social media, and these reports come only hours after the game’s release.
Cyberpunk 2077’s framerates and resolution are also a mess on older consoles as the game is barely maintaining an FPS of 30. In a report by Eurogamer, they had a chat with Digital Foundry’s Tom Morgan and shared that his tests shows frame rates below 30 and running a resolution between 720p and 900p.
Cyberpunk 2077 is mainly developed for the previous generation of consoles, the PS4 and Xbox One. The game was announced back in 2012 and has been in development for years and while those running the game on PS5 and Xbox Series X are experiencing better performances, majority of the console community that was eagerly waiting for the game are playing it on the PS4 and Xbox One.
We are currently playing the PC version of the game and most of the time it’s been smooth, and is likely the best platform for Cyberpunk 2077. But we too are experiencing cars disappearing and weird pop ins. I was bald in my first two hours thanks to my fedora hat. Who knows how the game feels 40 hours in, but for the sake of comparing one with the other, we’ll be checking out the PS4 version which requires over 100 GB of space thanks to the day 1 patch.
Cyberpunk 2077 is now available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. It is also playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Capcom has revealed that Akuma, the final DLC character for Street Fighter 6’s Year 1, is set to release on May 22, 2024 across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam). They also shared details on the character’s move set as well as three significant updates that will launch alongside Akuma.
Bandai Namco Entertainment has released a new trailer for Tekken 8 showing off the contents of the game’s first season, showcasing upcoming free features such as Photo Mode, a new chapter in the game’s main story, Online Practice mode, Ghost vs Ghost, and revealing second DLC character - Lidia.
The upcoming action adventure Stellar Blade comes out on April 26 and before launch it was updated with a new game plus patch, allowing players to carry over most of their progress and unlocks to a new playthrough, playing the game from the very beginning.
Stellar Blade’s potential was clear, but as its ambitions expanded into something greater, it lost focus. As soon as Stellar Blade tries to bring everything together, it merges into a single figure that looks deformed and uneven. The quality is unquestionable but it wasn’t the final product I was slowly building in my head as I went through the game’s first half.
The Fallout TV series that debuted on Amazon’s Prime Video streaming service is successful as many flock to Bethesda’s latest Fallout titles, including their online offering Fallout 76, which saw 1 million new players trying out the game soon after the first season of the show dropped on April 10.
Sega and Atlus announced that their upcoming JRPG Metaphor: ReFantazio is set to launch on October 11, 2024, for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (via Steam). They also revealed a new trailer, what you get if you pre-order, and revealed the contents of the 35th anniversary edition of the game.
The upcoming action adventure game Stellar Blade’s X account has announced that their game will be uncensored in all regions when it hits the PlayStation 5 on April 26. This is to appease players of the state of the game at launch as some PlayStation titles have regional variations censoring certain content, as many were worried that Stellar Blade could be given a similar treatment depending on the region.
Red Hook Studios announced they are bringing their punishing roguelike turned-based RPG Darkest Dungeon 2 to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on July 15, 2024. The base game as well as the DLC ‘The Binding Blade’ and the Oblivion bundle - containing the base game and DLC - will be available as cross-buy across PlayStation 4 and 5.
I got to talk with the developers of Fallen Tear: The Ascension and I emerged from the interview not only intrigued by what they are creating but also impressed by the passion the developers infused into the project.
In the grand scheme of things, Capcom has delivered a sequel to make Dragon’s Dogma fans happy and wishing for more, but this isn’t a massive upgrade. Rather, it’s a modernization of the overall concept as the highs and lows of the first game mirror the sequel. If you can weather the storm that is Dragon’s Dogma 2, you might come out as one of the players who consider this one of the best RPG experiences they’ve ever played, or simply the worst.
Sony Interactive Entertainment has updated that a whopping 25 games are scheduled to leave PlayStation Plus’ Games catalog on May 21, 2024, and six classic Final Fantasy titles are on the list.
Curve Games and developer Microbird announced that their upcoming indie game Dungeons of Hinterberg is set to launch on July 18, 2024, on Xbox Series X|S, PC (windows and Steam), and Xbox Game Pass.
