Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition (PS5)

Good story, gameplay, graphics, optimisation. One of the greatest DLC’s I had played. Perfect for collection.

Everyone in gaming circles is familiar with the disappointing launch of Cyberpunk. The game was bathing in hype and anticipation, and for reasons we can only speculate at, was released in an unfinished, unpolished and frankly embarrassing state. The developers spent far too much time and resources trying to make this ambitious game function on last gen consoles, which frankly lack the power. It would have been easy to walk away from the game and move on to a new project - instead CDPR spent years and over 100 million dollars on adjusting, fixing and polishing the game. Finally, with this release, players can enjoy the game as it was intended to be. This is a deeply entertaining, content filled sci-fi RPG built around a core of great gameplay and environmental immersion. The voice acting and motion capture work on characters is significantly better than in any of it's contemporaries - even Baldurs Gate 3 can't compare to cyberpunk when it comes to immersive character interaction, even if there is less such content in totality. When the game launched, even if your experience was bug free, the core gameplay lacked balance and agency. It was easy to break the game using combinations of item mods and abilities. This has been addressed - the skill trees, abilities, perks and weapons have all been adjusted. It's a much more engaging experience throughout. The world is also more immersive - there are car chases, apartments and cars to purchase, arcade games to play, trains to ride and side quests to enjoy. The Expansion - Phantom Liberty - is frankly brilliant. An entire new main quest, dozens of added side missions, a new area to explore and a dozens of weapon and vehicle additions. It is included with this release as a code - this is disappointing, and a solution would have been to make this a double disk set, but it isn't a significant issue. Should you play this game? Absolutely yes. We shouldn't forget the state it launched in, but we also can't ignore the strides that have been made. This is a polished, thrilling and massive game. I have sunk over 130 hours into my playthrough, and have not yet completed it.

One of the best games I've played after all the updates it's received its definitely worth it.

Massive open world, and this edition feels much more polished than launch. Runs smoothly on PS5. Still has the odd bug, but great value now.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Got this for my brother and he absolutely loved it! The Ultimate Edition looks amazing on PS5—smooth gameplay, stunning visuals, and tons of content. A perfect pick for any Cyberpunk fan or RPG lover.

Simply one of the best games ever made.

I passed on the initial PS4 release due to the myriad of bugs and poor performance issues. I wanted to wait until it was in a good working condition - so with this PS5 release I thought we'd finally got such a thing. Alas, no. I enjoyed my time with it, played 8 hours and really got into the story. The world is great too and I thoroughly looked forward to playing all of it. But then I encountered a bug which prevented main story progression. It was one of the infamous bugs and had no fix. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the game - doing so corrupted my save data. It's shocking that this game is still in poor working condition and random bugs can destroy everything at a moment's notice.

Its an interesting game. Very straight forward and a small game overall. You play as a delivery driver with a small twist. Learning to drive the car can be difficult at first, but by the time you finish the game, you get a grip of it. Its an easy game with an element of open world. Music is good.
