CD Projekt Red support staff at GOG have acknowledged that player saves for Cyberpunk 2077 will become corrupt and unfixable should they exceed 8mb in size. It was also noted that the size limit may be increased in future updates but all saves that become corrupt in the interim will remain so. GOG support has recommended avoiding any item duplication glitch to avoid encountering this issue as crafting greatly increases your save size.

Here’s what GOG support had to say:

Unfortunately the save is damaged and can’t be recovered. Please use an older save file to continue playing and try to keep a lower amount of items and crafting materials. If you have used the item duplication glitch, please load a save file not affected by it. The save file size limit might be increased in one of the future patches, but the corrupted files will remain that way.
