Suprise Cyberpunk 2077 2.1 Update Will Add "New And Hotly Anticipated" Gameplay Elements

gamespot.com:

CD Projekt Red has a few more surprises in store for Night City citizens.

By Darryn Bonthuys on

Development on a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel is currently gathering momentum, but CD Projekt Red isn't done with the original game just yet. A monumental 2.0 update revitalized Cyberpunk 2077 with a substantial overhaul of its gameplay systems several months ago, and CD Projekt Red is preparing to drop a 2.1 patch that will introduce «new and hotly anticipated gameplay elements» to Night City. More details on Cyberpunk 2077's 2.1 update will be revealed on CDPR's Twitch channel at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET on December 1.

This is a surprise, as CDPR announced in September that the 2.0 update was the last major upgrade for the game as it shifted resources toward a Cyberpunk 2077 sequel. Redesigned Skill Trees and Phantom Liberty's Relic Skills were game-changers when they were added to Cyberpunk 2077, so it'll be interesting to see how CDPR builds on these elements ahead of the launch of Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on December 5.
