CD Projekt has revealed what to anticipate from the Cyberpunk 2077 2.5 replace, which ties in with the discharge of Netflix anime Edgerunners 2.
Edgerunners content material features a new aspect quest referred to as Clampdown, which is ready earlier than the occasions of Edgerunners 2 (CD Projekt just lately confirmed that Edgerunners 2 is ready in 2078, only one yr after the sport itself). Throughout this quest you’ll get a brand new 5-piece gear set based mostly on the character King from Season 2. There’s additionally a brand new radio station that has tracks from the Edgerunners sequence.
However there’s lots extra coming with 2.5 unrelated to Edgerunners, together with extra aspect quests. The Welcome to Paradise! aspect quest takes you on a journey to uncover a thriller and discover Night time Metropolis on a guided tour narrated by Richard Night time, the founding father of Night time Metropolis itself. There’s additionally a brand new aspect quest that acts as an extension of Idiot on the Hill, which incorporates new tarot playing cards.
In the meantime, 2.5 enables you to customise your hand cyberware, which is able to allow you to give your Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire or Projectile Launch System implants a brand new look.

Maybe essentially the most vital addition with 2.5 is the brand new Double Bother perk within the Cool tree, which helps you to dual-wield Pistols and Revolvers from the Energy class for the primary time. The hope is that the perk will allow a completely new playstyle, and I’m positive followers will get a kick out of attempting it out.
Elsewhere, there’s cross-platform mod help on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Professional and Xbox Collection X and S, and varied quality-of-life enhancements, reminiscent of saves within the “Load Sport” menu grouped by separate playthroughs, and, lastly, an FOV (Subject Of View) slider on consoles.
On the tech aspect of issues, there’s help for DLSS 4.5, together with as much as 6X Multi Body Era or Dynamic Multi Body Era, and the 2nd Era Transformer Mannequin, and varied efficiency enhancements.
Total, 2.5 is a welcome shock for Cyberpunk 2077, after CD Projekt had indicated it had no plans for additional DLC for the massively profitable recreation. In fact, The Witcher 3 is getting a brand new growth 12 years after launch, so maybe CD Projekt will return afterward with a brand new growth for Cyberpunk 2077. For now, although, 2.5 is bound to spark a return to Night time Metropolis for lapsed gamers, and provides followers of Edgerunners a push to leap in in the event that they haven’t already.
