Cyberpunk 2077 hits 187,215 Steam players after Update 2.5
The surprise Update 2.5, released alongside Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 on Netflix, pushed the game to its highest Steam concurrent count since Phantom Liberty.
Cyberpunk 2077 reached a concurrent player peak of 187,215 on Steam following the surprise release of Update 2.5, according to gamerant.com. It is the highest concurrent Steam count for the game since the Phantom Liberty DLC launched.
Update 2.5 was released to mark the launch of Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 on Netflix. CD Projekt RED shipped the patch without prior announcement.
The new figure sits well below the 274,526 concurrent players Cyberpunk 2077 recorded after Phantom Liberty arrived in 2023. The game's all-time Steam peak remains 1,054,388, set at launch almost six years ago.
Cyberpunk 2077 launched on December 10, 2020, and its release was widely seen as disastrous before a long series of updates rebuilt its reputation.

The studio has said The Witcher 4 is its main priority, while development on Cyberpunk 2 is slowly ramping up.
