CD Projekt said ditching game-key cards for Cyberpunk 2077 on Switch 2 was "the right thing to do," and it's apparently paid off because 75% of that version's sales were physical

Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the vanishingly few third-party Switch 2 titles to have a proper physical cartridge rather than a game-key card, and it seems that decision is paying off for developer CD Projekt Red. The company says that over 75% of Switch 2 copies of Cyberpunk 2077 sold were physical.

That's according to CD Projekt Red's latest financial report (via VGC). A slide in that presentation notes that physical copies make up 75.4% of Cyberpunk 2077's Switch 2 sales for the month of June, leaving digital with a 24.6% share. It's worth noting that the physical number is for "sell in" copies, which includes those still sitting on store shelves and retail warehouses that haven't yet been purchased by consumers.
