Cyberpunk 2077 gets trolled in fan-made PS1 demake but 13 million sales should ease the pain

Cyberpunk 2077 has appeared in a fan-made video as “cancelled footage” from the PS1 version, bringing some light relief to those who have worked their way through the buggy PS4 and Xbox One versions. It’s not all gray clouds for CD Projekt as a silver lining has come in the form of 13 million sales, which factors in returns.

CD Projekt might be under heavy fire at the moment thanks to the controversy surrounding the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Cyberpunk 2077, but it’s not all doom and gloom for the much-maligned IP. An amusing fan-made video (see below) of the game for the PS1 has been raking in the laughs over at YouTube. Those who have played a bug-ridden variant of Cyberpunk 2077 will recognize how much detail has gone into this funny clip.

So of course you get characters spinning randomly off into the air or walking endlessly into buildings, you get massive system crashes and reboots, you get a stuck disc at the end, you get Keanu Reeves looking like a stressed-out hallucinogenic giraffe, and you get a tree that refuses to adhere to the law of gravity. Some of those infamous bugs from Cyberpunk 2077 but in a PS1 demake style.

However, a little bit of trolling shouldn’t detract too much from the good news in regard to the 13 million sales CD Projekt has announced for Cyberpunk 2077, which includes “factoring in returns submitted by retail clients in brick-and-mortar as well as digital storefronts”. Some well-executed patches should help bring many fans back to the fold too, although the impending lawsuits are likely to be more problematic.
