starfield It is, since last September 1, the game that is monopolizing all the covers and articles of a good part of the specialized press, which sees in it one of the clear contenders for GOTY of the year. And so much so that many other video games have moved their release dates to distance them from the Bethesda phenomenon. However,Phantom Liberty Could I manage to take that throne from him?
It seems incredible what we have suffered with Cyberpunk 2077 so that almost three years later, let’s continue talking about this wonder from CD Projekt RED which arrived completely broken on PS4, a little less on Xbox and almost nothing on PC (even adapting to new tools), but which has required enormous work on the part of the Poles to make it what it is today. A serious contender to defeat himself starfield.
We don’t say it
The fact is that on many occasions, measuring that a game is more popular than another without specific data in hand is complicated, but luckily it is possible to calibrate the trend in a somewhat simpler way and get an idea of where the shots are going. And at least within the PC ecosystem, which easily exceeds that of PlayStation and Xbox combined in number of users, we have some indicators that confirm that starfield has knelt before the colossus of CD Projekt RED.
As you can see in the image that we leave you just below, Cyberpunk 2077 has managed to surpass starfield within the category of most played titles in real time on Steam, remaining in sixth position and displacing Bethesda’s RPG. While the first managed to gather 87,905 players, the second had to settle for a figure of 79,648. That is, a little more than 8,000 difference.
And it must be said: the first major DLC of Cyberpunk 2077 how is Phantom Liberty, that It will be accessible in Spain starting tomorrow, in the early morning of September 26 at around 1:00 a.m. So we are now entering injury time.
The push for version 2.0
It must be remembered that this sudden rise of Cyberpunk 2077 It has not arrived by magic but by the publication of patch 2.0 that turns the game into what CD Projekt RED wanted from the beginning. What’s more, he puts both the pick and the shovel in the core of the title that the company has asked players to start their games again, because only then will they be able to enjoy those new features that have been worked on.
And of course, with that 2.0 patch already installed it lands immediately after Phantom Libertywhich means a small new plot line with its own characters which comes to consecrate these technical changes and make them more evident, so the hype and expectations have skyrocketed. Something that makes us especially happy because Cyberpunk 2077despite the mistakes made during its launch, deserved recognition from the players like the one it is receiving now.
So pay attention when new content arrives that, in the same way, convinces someone that it is the best thing we are going to see this year. Or not?
