Praise for Cyberpunk 2077 isn't the only comment from Musk that caught the public's attention. When asked by Ryan McCaffrey (editor-in-chief of IGN), when can we expect Cyberpunk in the latest Tesla models (S and X), Musk responded that his company is working on the general availability of games from Steam in these vehicles.

Twitter s also asked the question about whether Cybertruck will appear in the game - Tesla's futuristic off-road car. Last year there were rumors that the vehicle could appear in CD Projekt RED's game. However, Musk neither confirmed nor denied these reports, responding only with the enigmatic emoji "100".
Patch 1.5 definitely improved not only the image of Cyberpunk 2077 but also its situation on the market. In the UK the reaction to the new update was an increase in sales of the boxed edition by 271% on a week-to-week basis (via gamesindustry.biz). Recent reviews of the title on Steam have been mostly positive and it seems that the developers are picking up steam when it comes to ing their flagship creation.
