We joked last month when we saw the August list of top Steam Deck games that everyone is using their Deck like a better Nintendo Switch(opens in new tab). CDPR even added some in-game items based on the anime, as well, like David's jacket(opens in new tab). Our unofficial anime editor, Wes Fenlon, thought it was a fun watch. Update aside, the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime on Netflix seems to have driven some Cyberpunk 2077 owners back to Night City(opens in new tab). I can confirm that at least two of those Steam Deck hours were me meticulously organizing my V's outfits. This is starting to feel like a second launch after CD Projekt Red's 1.6 'Edgerunners' update(opens in new tab) finally added the much-awaited transmog system. It's not too surprising to see Cyberpunk rank so highly, considering we recently reported that it pulled in more than 1 million players daily(opens in new tab) just last week. CD Projekt Red's 2020 sci-fi open-world RPG found itself fourth on the list along with some repeats from last month, like Vampire Survivors, Elden Ring, and Stardew Valley.

Valve just released its list(opens in new tab) of the top Steam Deck games in September by total hours played, and it seems like Cyberpunk 2077's moment extends to handheld gaming, too.
