Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.5—Release Date & All New Features

Just when you thought CD Projekt RED was done with Cyberpunk 2077, the developer announced Update 2.5. The details were supposed to be secret, but content creators were told about the new features, so now we know what’s coming and the launch date.

You don’t have to wait long for the new update. CD Projekt Red dropped the surprise announcement on October 20, and the full update arrives a couple of days later.
