While Cyberpunk 2077 is currently the subject of a controversy regarding the game's shockingly bad performance on old-generation hardware such as PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, which led to extended refund policies from platforms holders like Microsoft and Sony, it's worth reminding that the game had garnered over eight million pre-orders ahead of launch, with just digital sales pushing the game into profitability according to CD PROJEKT RED.
A new report issued by Niko Partners, the research firm focused on delivering market intelligence on the gaming industry across Asian countries, suggests that Cyberpunk 2077 had a great start in China, too, despite the fact that the game doesn't even have an official ISBN license to be sold there. Of course, there are plenty of unofficial channels to get it from, and that includes Valve's Steam platform where Cyberpunk 2077 was the top seller for the Chinese market on its release week.
