Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.04 Fixes Quest Bugs, Various Gameplay Issues
Cyberpunk 2077 has been the recipient of quite a lot of attention since its launch, with the game quickly topping 1 million concurrent players on Steam during its first day out in the wild. Still, the game needs quite a lot of work as evidenced by the countless folks that have taken to social media to question when this bug or that will be squashed. While we certainly don’t have all the answers, the newly revealed Cyberpunk 2077 hotfix should address at least some of the issues.
