Buy digitally or physically? This question of faith concerns players again and again. At Cyberpunk 2077, the key versions seem to have the edge. CD Projekt CFO Piotr Nielubowicz stated:
“When it comes to pre-orders, digital is very strong. (…) How far we are going to go? We honestly don’t know, definitely further than with The Witcher 3 and definitely more than 50 percent should come through the digital channel The Witcher 3 shows that the longer a game has been on the market, the more it shifts towards the digital. With Witcher 3 it is the vast majority. “
Overall, CD Projekt is very satisfied with the pre-orders so far. As expected, the number increases the closer the launch gets.
