Much of Europe,Turkey and Canada are closing down borders from UK travellers over the new strain.

Likely re-drafted.

I seen speculation that investors forced them to release instead of delaying further.

Their only other series is The Witcher, so this is a disaster for them.

This is the same Polish company that created The Witcher series.

Witcher 3 was one of the most beloved games of the last decade, maybe ever. Very expansive, lots to do. Multiple endings and a real labour of love, with lots of free dlcs and 2 pretty good expansions. They built up a huge amount of goodwill, basically the anti EA.

So their next project was announced post Witcher as Cyberpunk 2077. Alot were excited to see what they would get next. This was basically the most hyped game in a few years.

So it got released this month and is apparently a very buggy mess on consoles. Extremely buggy/unplayable for some. Also it's an rpg where your choices don't matter past the start of the game... very Un Witcher.

The reaction has not been great to say the least. Microsoft/Sony are offering refunds. ...And with 8 million preorders ect alone, nevermind those who bought in stores, well you can imagine how big a deal this is.

Supposedly it's not as bad on PC/Steam (no idea on Stadia).
