CEO Adam Kiciński went on to confirm that the game’s sales are up from the 18 million reported last April and 20 million in September. It’s fair to say, then, that 2023 has seen something of a resurgence forCyberpunk 2077when it comes to retail success.
However, despite the game’s recent resurgence in popularity, the studio said thatno matter how well the DLC sells, it will be the game’s only expansion.
