Cyberpunk 2077

Phantom Liberty is a spy-thriller expansion for the open-world action RPG Cyberpunk 2077. The narrative centers on the aftermath of the President of the New United States of America's orbital shuttle being shot down over Dogtown, one of Night City’s most dangerous districts. Players control V, a mercenary tasked with navigating a complex web of espionage and political intrigue. The expansion introduces Dogtown, a heavily militarized, autonomous zone ruled by a strict and authoritarian leader. With support from NUSA sleeper agent Solomon Reed (voiced by Idris Elba) and returning character Johnny Silverhand (voiced by Keanu Reeves), players engage in a story involving shifting alliances and covert operations. Designed for next-generation hardware, Phantom Liberty features new gameplay mechanics, side activities, and a main storyline centered on themes of power, trust, and survival.

Cyberpunk 2077: Update 2.0 introduces a comprehensive, free overhaul of the game's core systems. Key changes include a redesigned cyberware system, where armor stats are now linked to equipped cyberware rather than clothing, allowing for greater customization and strategic trade-offs. The update also revamps the perk system, adding abilities such as bullet deflection, mid-air dashing, and new finishing moves, along with a new skill tree tied to the Relic chip in V’s body for enhanced abilities. The update introduces a vehicular combat system, enabling players to engage enemies while driving, including shooting and hacking nearby vehicles. This addition is accompanied by changes to the game’s “wanted” system, with escalating responses from the NCPD, culminating in confrontations with the heavily armed MaxTac Psycho Squad. Update 2.0 also adds over 100 new items, including weapons, clothing, cyberware, and vehicles, expanding the game’s customization and combat options.

The Edgerunners Update (Patch 1.6) brings various gameplay fixes and improvements, free DLCs, as well as content inspired by Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, an anime that premiered on Netflix on September 13, 2022.
