"I, and the entire leadership team, are deeply sorry for this, and this video is me publicly owning up to that."</p><p>Alongside the apology, Iwinski announced delays to previously announced downloadable content for "Cyberpunk 2077," and said that the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions of the game are currently scheduled for launch in the second half of 2021.</p><p><img src="https://static2.businessinsider.com/image/5fff733ffe7e140019f7ed5f-2400/Screen%20Shot%202021-01-13%20at%2042302%20PM.png" border="0" alt="Cyberpunk 2077 roadmap, 2021" data-mce-source="CD Projekt RED"></p><p>Between launch on December 10 and December 22, "Cyberpunk 2077" moved a whopping 13 million copiesincluding returns.</p><p>Sales aside, "Cyberpunk" players on all platforms reporteda variety of wild bugs and technical issues.</p><p>A week after launch, Sony outright pulled the game from its PlayStation digital storefront.
