Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.44/day in the week to Aug 4 → 31.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Played every quest from front to end, good game
Хорошо проработанный и очень колоритный киберпанковый сеттинг; следить за сюжетом интересно; есть яркие персонажи и квесты; динамичные и брутальные сражения; много оружия, экипировки и аугментаций; игра шикарно выглядит и звучит.

Kann es nicht mit Maus und Tastatur spielen. Ich kann mich zwar bewegen aber Maus-aim funktioniert bei mir nicht. Keine Lösung gefunden und da dies das einzige spiel ist das solche ein Problem aufweist, sorry Devs.. mies.
難易度ノーマルでクリアしました。 どちらかといえばおすすめです。 まず、ゲームが良くフリーズする人はフルスクリーンにしてみましょう。自分はこれでフリーズしなくなりました。 敵AIが賢かったりで戦闘はそこそこ面白いのですが、ただひたすら移動が面倒です。後、マップが分かりにくい…。せっかくDead Spaceでいうロケーター機能があるのにクエストしか適用されないため、マップ上で行きたいところを選択できると良かったです…。 終盤はとにかく数で攻めてくるのできつい。ニューゲーム+も可能です。そこまでするほどのものかといわれると…。
【NOT RECOMMENDED 不推荐6/10 】 非常尴尬的一款游戏,美术硬派,设计却乏善可陈,而且有大量干扰游玩流畅度的设计点,让人很快就疲惫了 太可惜了
Game froze 2.5 hours into playthrough just like it has for so many others. I wish I would have read the reviews more if I had I wouldn't have bought this broken game.
Good looks, but overall - not memorable game + full of small bugs/crashes/softlocks. Still, if you like diablo games, this one is not a horrible option. Main problems: Lack of build variety, not enough modules/abilities. Respec is EXPENSIVE + you won't have enough tier 1 upgrade materials for your guns, so you are stuck with ~6 fully upgraded guns per playthrough. Choose wisely what you want to upgrade. Lack of relliable HP heal, you get 1 tactical on long CD (if you don't build for it), 3 abilities (can equip 2 at a time) + random healing drops from enemies (can't be improved) or 1 time use healing stations (reset after map reload). 80% of guns are useless, partly because of low dmg output or a straight up better version of the same gun exists, making original obsolete. Armor system as a whole, forget about minmaxing stat boosts - you must wear armor with the best resistneces or you will be oneshotted. Slow map traversal + exploration is a chore. All of these problems combine into the gameplay loop of (THIS GETS WORSE THE LONGER YOU PLAY): You explore the map and stumble onto and enemy group of 3 - as soon as you shoot them, they spawn more enemies instantly, usually behind or on top of the player - surrounding you and dealing free dmg. If you don't have good dps - you die. If you don't have the armor with best resistances equiped to tank the dmg - you die. If you don't have relliable heal - you die (OR survive, but die to the next encounter due to lack of HP). You can't switch abilities mid fight (you loose ALL your energy, needed to cast those abilities), you can't try a different gun (it's unupgraded and deals no dmg). Dying usually puts you at the start of the location, if you ran through half the map and died - prepeare to do it all over again, because enemies respawned aswell. So for the whole game you are stuck with the same guns (lucky if you picked a good gun to upgrade, instead of waisting ressourses on the starting pistol), stuck using the same 2 methods of healing and no money to respec your skills (IT'S REALLY EXPENSIVE MY GOD) to try something different.
Purchased the game in English but was forced to use Russian only, even if the purchased game was in english and all settings are in english. Refunded the game for that. It was fun though but all interface was bugging me to hell. Do not force users to play in a language they dont want.
First of all, the game looks beautiful. The Cyberpunk vibe is really nailed. The music is top notch and I really enjoyed the combat and gunplay. However, the game is not optimized. It will crash and it will freeze. It will also use almost 100% of your gpu (I'm running a 5070TI 16gb VRAM). Even with great specs this will happen. It ran better for the first 30-40% of the game then it suddenly throttled the performance. On top if it all, the quest location markers are atrocious. The game will have you running in circles alot to figure out where you really should go. Cause sometimes, even the markers don't know. It gets a 5/10 from me. If the performance, quest markers and fast travel was improved I would have given it a 7/10. I finished all the main missions and side quests anyways cause the vibe was good and I realized after half of the game that the fast travel didn't get any better. You will never have faster movement speed so you will just run and run and run and run for 50% of your playtime. TLDR: it's a cyberpunk running simulator with some shooting in between.
В общем, для дьяблоидной игры есть минусы, критически портящие геймплей: - Нет рандомного оружия и вещей со статами и бонусами к навыкам. Все вещи типовые. - Инвентарь и интерфейс делал школьник на уроке информатики, и то ему поставили трояк. - Прокачка статов и навыков вообще не ощущается, из-за кривого интерфейса опять же. Так что это скорее стрелялка в изометрии. Надо сказать, что есть и плюсы: - Красивая графика. - Веселые перестрелки. Но в таком виде это не мой жанр. Возврат делать не буду, но пока удаляю. Может внукам завещаю пройти)
