Despite the excitement and buzz around Cyberpunk 2077 as of late, thanks to the massive 2.0 update and the release of the Phantom Liberty DLC, the recently reported issue of anti-Russian rhetoric getting into the game via the update has somewhat tarnished the positives for developer CD Projekt Red.
The discovery of certain derogatory terms in the 2.0 update led to CDPR issuing a statement via IGN that featured an apology for the Ukrainian localization of the update whilst also highlighting that the words were not written by CDPR staff and do not represent their values. The devs also took to the Russian social media sites Telegram and VK to further this message. Screenshots highlighting some of the rhetoric found in the new update were initially posted to the CD Projekt Red forums.
