Cyberpunk 2077: Steam users report download stuck at 57.4 GB issue preventing them from playing

People looking to enjoy the marvelous Night City in Cyberpunk 2077 can do so now, as the game has gone live on different platforms. Sadly for Steam users, the download seems to be glitched, as fans have reported that it gets stuck on exactly 57.4 GB of progress, painfully close to completion, as the size of the download is 60.2 GB.

Comments directed at developer CD Projekt Red have been flooding social media over the last hour, as players demand an answer for this occurrence. 

User Tinyeyeguy shared a clip with his own experience fighting the Cyberpunk steam bug.

"If your cyberpunk download is stuck at 57.4GB and you preloaded it, steam isn't stuck. it's decrypting the game from your preload. Watch the blue bar under the Play button and your disk usage. It will continue."

Right below the big blue Play button Murphy comments, that's where you'll find a new progress bar:

While this means there's not much you can actively do to fix this issue, at least if you see that blue bar you'll know not to restart then download.

One more user, Lunar Amiya, shared that by going to the properties option and unchecking the Bonus Content, you can get past the 57.4 GB bug.
