It seems that the bad news for Cyberpunk 2077 and it’s troubled launch simply won’t stop with the latest problem discovered by players concerning the game’s save files.<\/p>\n

It has become known that Cyberpunk 2077’s save files are capped at 8MB on all platforms, which means that if at any point it becomes bigger, the file will corrupt and become unusable.<\/p>\n

The save file bug was discovered by players<\/a> who have been using the game’s crafting mechanic excessively. It looks like the game’s saving system was designed so that it remembers each one of your crafted or looted items in your save file, even after you get rid of them.<\/p>\n

This essentially discourages players from using the crafting mechanic as at any point you could tip yours save over the 8MB limit risking all your progress.<\/p>\n
