More notably, the studio explicitly stated, “We do not have plans for a beta,” which has sparked some concern among gamers who hoped for a beta phase to test the game before launch. Unlike some other large titles, which often run beta tests to identify bugs and gather player feedback, Cyberpunk 2077 appears to be skipping this step, possibly due to its scope and complexity.
While trusting CD Projekt Red’s reputation for quality, some industry observers find the absence of a beta worrisome. Large-scale games with open-world elements often benefit from testing phases to iron out unforeseen issues. The decision not to include a beta indicates confidence in their internal testing, but it also raises questions about potential risks upon release.
