Now, although the RPG single-player game will have “zero microtransactions”, the developers wrote that the online, multiplayer version of the game would include in-game purchases.

“Cyberpunk multiplayer/online, which is a separate project, will have some microtransactions, but we said that a year ago already.”,wroteCD Projekt Red.

However, for this also, the developers got a bashing from manyTwitter usersas gamers have always beenagainst microtransactionsin video games.

To be honest, microtransactions in free-to-play titles likeApex LegendsandValorantseems fair. But if I am getting a game for $60 (~Rs 4,425), then I expect to enjoyall the content the developers can offerwithout paying anything extra.

What do you guys think about this decision by the Cyberpunk developers to include microtransactions in the multiplayer version of the game? Do let us know down in the comments.
