On the fourth anniversary of Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt RED is bringing an unexpected update to the game. What's behind it?
Gaming fans had high expectations for Cyberpunk 2077. However, there was great disappointment when it was released, as the eagerly awaited game had numerous bugs and performance problems. However, development studio CD Projekt RED has smoothed out the weeks since then and for many players, Cyberpunk 2077 is considered one of the best action role-playing games of recent years since Phantom Liberty. Now, surprisingly, another update has been announced, although the previous update 2.1 was considered the last major one. What does that mean?
Update 2.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 does not bring PS5 Pro support or New Game Plus
What's in Update 2.2 for Cyberpunk 2077? Fans of the game shouldn't expect PS5 Pro support or a New Game Plus mode. Marcin Momot from CD Projekt RED made this clear in advance on X. “We have a few other cool things up our sleeves that we can talk about.” […] will be speaking during the stream – we hope you enjoyed it too!”Momot writes in his post.
The exact contents of the update are still a secret. CD Projekt RED will present the new features of update 2.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 today, December 10th at 5 p.m. in the stream. Here is the post about it:
“The team still has gas in the tank”: Most fans are happy with the status quo of Cyberpunk 2077 and can play it without any serious bugs. The announcement of this major update is therefore surprising. But Momot explains that the team “still gas in the tank“, although most of the studio's developers are already working on the next projects such as the sequels to The Witcher and Cyberpunk.
Cyberpunk 2077 lives on
Since its release, Cyberpunk 2077 has sold over 30 million copies. CD Projekt RED seems determined to continue supporting the community and improving the game – perhaps continuing the reason that the release was such a disappointment. But they have already made up for a lot with the Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty add-on.
Gamers also have high expectations for the next part of Grand Theft Auto. Insider Jason Schreier recently gave new insights into the development of GTA 6.
