Cyberpunk 2077 developer adding more epilepsy warnings to the game after reviewer suffers

Cyberpunk 2077 has some scenes which can cause an epileptic seizure. Unfortunately, one reviewer found this out firsthand. Game Informer’s Liana Ruppert has struggled with epilepsy after an injury she sustained during her time in the military, she explained in her recent Cyberpunk 2077 review. In the piece, Ruppert said she suffered a grand mal seizure when playing through a braindance. A braindance is a sequence in the game featuring rapidly flashing lights. In response to Ruppert’s piece, CD Projekt said it will add a more prominent warning in the game for epileptic triggers. They also promised to implement more accessibility features in the future. Ruppert responded positively to the news. “Thank you so much for listening!” she tweeted. “I look forward to learning more about the steps being taken so that everyone who wants to can enjoy Night City”. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, at least 3.4 million Americans live with epilepsy
