CDPR revealed the list of changes for Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.5 - quests, Edgerunners 2-style content, and new mechanics
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
The developers have prepared many new features.
Tomorrow, CD Projekt RED plans to release a major update 2.5 for Cyberpunk 2077. The developers have already shown the new features and published the patch notes. The update will include technical improvements, as well as additional content and gameplay opportunities.
Players will be able to complete a new side quest, “Precautionary Measures,” which will serve as an introduction to the events of the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2:
To get it, complete the quest “The Heist,” finish two gigs for Wakako, and then wait for a message from her.
In addition, a set of 5 gear items in the style of Wick Kingsley, also known as King — one of the main characters of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, will be added. Players will be able to obtain these items during the “Precautionary Measures” side quest.
A new radio station, HKGN 102.0 FM, will also be available, broadcasting music from the anime series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
The developers announced that players will be able to use DLSS 4.5 technology, and the character's arm implant appearance can be changed:
Install Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire, or Projectile Launch System and head to one of the five glam shops — they are marked on the map with a spray can icon. Each glam shop operates in its own establishment and offers its own catalog of cyberimplant appearances. The first visit will feature a short introductory scene, after which you can choose a suitable customization option.
List of changes and new features in Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.5:
- Night City Fashion Week: some vendors already offer 5 new clothing sets.
- The new “Double Effect” ability in the “Cold Blood” tree and a number of additional abilities will allow for a new playstyle — with a standard pistol or revolver in each hand.
- The NUSA Infiltration Agent gear set can now be purchased from clothing vendors in Kabuki and Japantown.
- New poses have been added to photo mode, in which characters will look especially impressive with dual-wielded weapons.
- Cross-platform mod support based on mod.io will appear — on PC, Mac devices, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, and Xbox Series X|S.
- Welcome to Paradise! A side quest has been added to the game, during which players will uncover another secret of Night City and go on a city tour with Richard Night as a virtual guide — but first, you need to complete the “The Heist” quest and raise your Street Cred to level 15.
- 12 new Minor Arcana from the tarot card deck have appeared on the streets of Night City. Major and Minor Arcana in the tarot card section are now in their respective separate categories. Players will have to search for new cards as part of a new quest, which is a continuation of “The Fool on the Hill.” To start this quest, you need to scan any of the new cards.
- Saves for each new game started in the load menu are now separated and grouped.
- Fixed an issue where playing on Nintendo Switch 2 could display the message “Could not save game: not enough space.”
- Fixed an issue where the game ignored changes to HDR settings on PlayStation 5.
Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.5 is scheduled for release on October 22. The full description of the update is available at the following link.
