What drives the score

How to read this

Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.

The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $17.99. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 57 in the 7 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 8 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 5 weeks.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 29 percent on value. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 76 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Cloudpunk ($19.99, scores 61) beats it on value, while it beats Deus Ex: Mankind Divided ($2.99, scores 42).

Of the 798 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 10 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written August 2026 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 23,077 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (time-limited); the score docks it lightly for that.

26.1 hours to finish it, 109 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 4.2 times the campaign.

Still 22.3K concurrent players, 6 years in.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

What players say

Honestly, I wasn't really interested in Cyberpunk 2077 during my first 2 hours. At first, I thought the game was just okay and I wasn't really feeling the hype around it. But everything changed after finishing the prologue. Once the main story properly opened up, the game became much more interesting. The gameplay started to click, the graphics looked incredible, and the story became much more engaging. Night City...

Peakest peak there can be Genuienly insane how good this game is and how many people dont want to give it a second chance after release. Probably the second best game I've ever played and has the best DLC ever made

Заскладна для нульового гравця. Моя порада пройдіть пролог, або десь 6-8 годин гри. А потім йдіть на ютуб дивитися предісторію, що взагалі відбувається. Шо по імплантам, як крафтити патрікі (я зрозумів це на 60 годині гри, угу) й тощо Насправді від легенди очікував більшого: купа мотлоху не зрозумілого, брейдаунси можна купувати та вони не працюють, 150+ шмоток що просто сміття в твоєму рюкзаку, зброя що просто клас...

[![BANG Score](https://steambangers.com/api/badge/1091500)](https://steambangers.com/game/1091500/cyberpunk-2077)

The BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.

Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 6, price as of Sep 24.

A number here look wrong? Tell me what it got wrong and I will look at the inputs behind it.
