A new patch and the debut of the spin-off Netflix series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners has once again sent Cyberpunk 2077's concurrent users soaring on PC, this time hitting over 68,000 players.
Just a couple of days back, we reported that SteamDB recorded that the number of concurrent Cyberpunk 2077 players had peaked at 37,000, which itself was an impressive feat for a game that peaked at just 16,000 concurrent players in August.
Since then the number has continued to climb and climb, hitting 68,394 in the last 24 hours – which is a significant achievement for any game approaching its second birthday, let alone a game with as troubled a past as Cyberpunk 2077.
Of course, PC players make up just a fraction of the overall player count and do not represent all players on all platforms, but it's a good indication of a game's popularity, particularly following its most recent update, which introduces various fixes and gameplay improvements as well as extra features.
Rebecca, a spunky, foul-mouthed solo edgerunner with a decidedly childlike design nearly didn't make it to the anime. Producer Saya Elder recently revealed that CDPR voiced concerns that lolis – a term for young or young-looking female characters in anime and manga – don't typically gel with Night City's vibe.
Keen to see what else CD Projekt Red is currently cooking up? Here's everything you need to know about the Witcher 4, which was announced as being in development earlier this year.
