CHARTS: Cyberpunk 2077 returns to Steam Top Ten

CHARTS: Cyberpunk 2077 returns to Steam Top Ten

CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077 is once again back in the Steam charts.

The title returns at fifth place thanks to a 50 per cent price cut. This comes in the wake of something of a resurgence for the dark sci-fi RPG thanks to the popularity of the Netflix anime, Cyberpunk Edgerunners. That helped return a lot of fans to the game as well as pushing it over 20 million sales 21 months after its release.

Top place in the Steam charts once again goes to Valve's Steam Deck, while Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 hangs steady in second place.

Red Dead Redemption 2 also makes a return to the Top Ten in third off the back of a 67 per cent price cut, just ahead of pre-orders for upcoming Warhammer 40k title Darktide from Vermintide maker Fatshark.

PlayStation's God of War is another returner after a week away, also with a 25 per cent price cut, which comes in at No.6, just ahead of FIFA 23 which has seen a huge 40 per cent price cut just two months after its release.

Persona 5 Royal robs eighth place with a 30 per cent discount, while two EA titles round off the Steam Top Ten – co-op romp It Takes Two at No.9 and Battlefield V in tenth.

Here is the Top Ten for the week ending November 27th:

1. Steam Deck, Valve
2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Activision
3. Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar
4. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, Fatshark (P)
5. Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt
6. God of War, Sony
7. FIFA 23, EA
8. Persona 5 Royal, Atlus
9. It Takes Two, EA
10. Battlefield V, EA
