Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.44/day in the week to Aug 4 → 31.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great immersive cyberpunk game. Worth it
The art is awesome but the controls are making playing the game borderline impossible.

this game is a work of art!
It's a nice top-down shooter with many ways to play. The normal difficulty is plenty challenging, provided you aren't grossly overleveling throughout the game. The story is also pretty cool, despite having your average dystopian cyberpunk-esque theme where corporations are subverting everyone and blah blah blah. Controls can be pretty intuitive once you get used to them.
Багованое днище.
YES!!
J'ai adoré la direction artistique cyberpunk dysto, trés bien respecté , ainsi que l'ambiance vraiment extra , tellement de personnages de véhicules de décors et la musique , tout est immersif comme le Sound disign des armes aussi trés réussi. Les graphismes sont top pour un iso (mais pas extra non plus )mais le rtix ne donne pas grand chose en + à part la surchauffe. et surtout brise les fps , Cb2077 full ultra path tracing on 1080 p 280 fps , The ascent Ultra 1080 p rtx on /mode processeur perf on = 50 65 fps. Pour le gameplay , je ne suis clairement pas fan , le coup Fov trop trop proche ainsi que la non possibilité de régler In game la sensibilité des controllers est vraiment trés surprenant quand on voit tous le travail d'interface de gestion , d'immersion et scénaristique. Le petit cercle de placement est lui aussi génant je trouve et aurais été sympa de pourvoir le rendre visible ou non comme le réticule non personnalisable. Obligé d'utiliser Unreal engine unlocker ce qui n'est pas du tout normal . Sans parlé des Hitbox totalement brolen ,qui oblige à changer d'armes dans la page d'équipements puis la rééquiper pour quel touche . Juste Ca dégoute clairement du jeux. Puis la difficulté, le jeux est plus dure en facile quand difficile. Incomphréensible. Compter une bien 10 heure pour la quête principal . Par contre certain moment sont vraiment difficile solo même en facile .Obliger de constament switcher en les levels de difficultées car une fois trop facile puis aprés hyper dur. Beaucoup de sous titrage manquant en cinématique. Acheté 4 euros sur un site tiers. Ouf , Sans les bugs et les autres soucis le jeu serait vraiment sympa. Dans le même stylé j'ai préféré le rythme de Slavikpunk ainsi que les déplacements du perso & la puissance du jeu Ruiner ainsi que sont gameplay plus technique Mais trés hâte de découvrir NO Law.
Muitos efeitos de particula e iluminação. Shooter top down com estetica cyberpunk futurista. Tem muitas ideias boas mas o problema é o desempenho. Jogo é bom mas tem um stuttering ferrado. Meu Pc é modesto mas roda muito jogo pesado tranquilamente, esse é aquele jogo que roda liso mas peida toda hora. É muito estranho jogar doom de 2025 a 60 fps com tudo no ultra e não conseguir rodar esse jogo sem stuttering. Com resolução baixa, no medio e sem ray traycing só para DIMINUI o stuttering. Fica tudo borrado e sem graça. Quería jogar mais, mas é como dançar com uma mulher bonita que manca. Vou deixar na minha lista do "quem sabe um dia" e voltar a ele daqui uns 5 ou 6 anos quando sair placas de video que rodem ele com preço que não seja o olho das nadegas.
I tried to like this game, but I don't. It looks great, the world's creation is very nice for CP fans, but the gameplay is so boring. It tries to be a sort of h'n's game, but it's not, it's repetitive, there is no feeling of progression, things I bought after 1hr of game are still equipped on my character, you loot a lot of useless stuff, there's no fun in killing hundreds of enemies. I dropped it after 11hrs and I don't think I will ever come back to it.
