Cyberbunk 2077 Developer CD Project Red (CDPR) is releasing an update for the game, which will reduce the ability of certain scenes to trigger seizure symptoms. The risks of seizures were brought to light earlier this week by game informer author Liana Rupert. 1.04 Hotfix is now live on PlayStation consoles and PC, and CDPR is working to release a “quick” update on the Xbox. CDPR claims to have changed the way it views its “brainwashed” scenes. During these shots, a device that illuminates the red and white lights is placed in front of your character’s eyes. The effect is similar to what real neurologists do to trigger seizures for diagnosis, according to Rupert, who said he suffered from epilepsy while playing the game. According to CDBR’s patch notes, the flashing effect during branding is “softened and the flash is reduced in frequency and magnitude”. Rupert said he worked with the studio this week to help test the adjustment. “I think it will help many cyberbank 2077 feel safe for many epileptics and non-epileptics,” Rupert said. I am away from communities today, but I am so glad to see this change! Earlier this week I worked with CDPR to test some bold animations, which I think will help many epileptics and epileptics feel safe on #Cyberbunk2077. ) There are several fixes in the December 11, 2020 update, one of which runs some copyrighted songs even when a player switches to a setting to disable playing copyrighted music. The CDPR had warned on Thursday to turn off all music in the game as a temporary set to avoid provoking the TMCA strike. Despite several initial issues with Cyberbunk 2077, including reports of poor performance on older consoles, the game was by far the biggest financial success. CDPR has already fully reimbursed growth and marketing costs through digital pre-orders, according to a document from the Investor Platform (PDF). The game had more than eight million bookings, CDPR announced Wednesday. Cyberpunk 2077 also broke Steam’s simultaneous player record for a single player game, reaching more than 1 million players simultaneously on Thursday, Steam DP reported. That number has more than doubled from the previous record set by Ballout 4 in 2015, which had a peak of more than 470,000 simultaneous players.
