Now the wait is finally over, starting today 10 December Cyberunk 2077 is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Google Stadia and PC. The highly anticipated new role-playing epic of CD Project Red, albeit with some stumbling blocks in the course of its development, it has finally come out and a flood of players on different platforms have thrown headlong into the streets of Night City. Unlike consoles, however, on PC there was a global launch, which has allowed many players (especially Westerners) to start their game much earlier, so that many fans have preferred the computer version over the others. After an analysis of the first 12 hours where the game was made available to the general public, Steam collected the information about the simultaneous logins of the game and revealed that in this short period of time they connected more than a million people at the same time.
The data released by SteamDB speak for themselves: on Valve's proprietary gaming platform alone, Cyberpunk 2077 has totaled the record number of 1.003.264 players connected simultaneously, breaking the previous record of the Polish software house, which in 2015 had managed to connect 90.000 people simultaneously with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and then surpassed this same number with the launch of the Netflix series dedicated to the witcher, which allowed the fantasy role-playing game to exceed 100.000 simultaneous players. The only game that managed to surpass the number of concurrent players on Steam was Counterstrike: Global Offensive, which thanks to its new update has managed to slightly surpass the latest effort of CD Projekt Red. The numbers also reach dizzying numbers in the streaming sector, where the open-world role-playing game has managed to total 1.143.961 unique viewers on Twitch, thanks to the thousands of broadcasts made in the last 24 hours on the "purple site".
The Polish software house also wanted to thank all the fans and enthusiasts who have continued to support the game in recent months, managing to make Cyberpunk 2077 reach the incredible figure of 8 millions of pre-orders carried out on the various platforms on which it was published. In short, the figures only confirm that CD Projekt Red's latest effort has hit the mark, breaking through the hearts of audiences and critics and we are sure that these numbers will only increase in the coming days.
