Update, December 18, 2020 (03:20 PM ET): Hot on the heels of Sony issuing mandatory Cyberpunk 2077 refunds, Microsoft is now joining in. Unlike Sony, though, Microsoft is making refunds optional and the game will still be available to buy for your Xbox consoles through the Microsoft Store.
Microsoft made the announcement on Twitter through its Xbox Support handle. The tweet thread is here. To get a refund for your digital purchase of Cyberpunk 2077 through the Microsoft Store, click here.
