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 about earlier than the occasions of Edgerunners 2 (CD Projekt recently confirmed that Edgerunners 2 is set in 2078, only one yr after the sport itself). Throughout this quest you’ll get a brand new 5-piece gear set primarily based on the character King from Season 2. There’s additionally a brand new radio station that has tracks from the Edgerunners collection.
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 permits you to customise your hand cyberware, which can allow you to give your Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire or Projectile Launch System implants a brand new look. Every Glamdoc is positioned in a novel store, together with their very own intro scene with voiceover and animations, and gives a novel catalog of cyberware skins with customizable colours.
Maybe essentially the most vital addition with 2.5 is the brand new Double Hassle 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 wholly new playstyle, and I’m certain followers will get a kick out of attempting it out.
Elsewhere, there’s cross-platform mod assist on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Professional and Xbox Sequence X and S, and varied quality-of-life enhancements, similar to saves within the “Load Sport” menu grouped by separate playthroughs, and, lastly, an FOV (Area Of View) slider on consoles.
On the tech aspect of issues, there’s assist 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 vastly profitable sport. In fact, The Witcher 3 is getting a brand new enlargement 12 years after launch, so maybe CD Projekt will return afterward with a brand new enlargement 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.
