If you've played plenty of Cyberpunk 2077, odds are you've given all three of the initial backstories the game offers V - corpo, nomad, and streetkid - a whirl. Well, thanks to a mod, there's now a fresh fourth option for you to try out, complete with its own new intro sequence.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's developers still have hope that they can restore the faith of anyone still struggling to trust CD Projekt again following Cyberpunk 2077's notoriously rocky release all those years ago - with The Witcher 4, Cyberpunk's sequel and project Hadar set to take over this mission from Phantom Liberty.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's developers once brainstormed ideas for a quest in which the player "became a construct, essentially able to do millions of things at once" via some Superhot-style time mechanics, similar to those a modder has just managed to add to the game.
]]>Following the runaway success of Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Netflix and CD Projekt have now teased as part of Nextflix's Geeked week that another Cyberpunk 2077 animated project is on the way.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 fans, it would seem, love a good board game. They love em so much, in fact, that a new official one from CD Projekt and Go On Board - inventively dubbed Cyberpunk 2077: The Board Game - has not only surpassed the $100,000 crowdfunding goal its campaign launched with today, it's raised over 10x that much cash.
]]>CD Projekt has revealed that the game codenamed project Polaris - that "first instalment in the new Witcher saga" that we've all been referring to as The Witcher 4 just to make thing a bit less confusing until a proper name is slapped on it - is just about ready to enter full production.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 is a big game with lots to discover, but not all of it is easy to see or find - luckily, a new mod should help you see even the smallest of moments.
]]>Warning: Major Spoilers for Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty expansion lie ahead.
]]>The very good Phantom Liberty aside, Cyberpunk 2077 is, for better or worse, that game where you can hang out with Keanu Reeves, because he's physically stuck inside your chracter's brain in slightly airheaded rock singer form. For those that love some Keanu, which you kind of have to or you're at risk of violating the rules of the internet, a new Cyberpunk mod is defintely worth checking out.
]]>So, there’s been a fresh Cyberpunk 2077 update issued by CD Projekt. It’s pretty tiny and only affected the PC version of the game, but unfortunately it’s been made noteworthy for one reason. It’s messed with a lot of people’s load orders by necessitating updates to some of the game’s most widely used mods.
]]>“Having played the original TTRPG, way back in the stone ages, I was stoked to hear that they were making the game with Mike Pondsmith's guidance,” Cyberpunk 2077 modder Darkcopse tells me.
]]>Ok, so you know how CD Projekt was pretty emphatic in saying that last December's Update 2.1 was almost definitely it drawing a line under Cyberpunk 2077, additions-wise? Well, that’s still the case, as the reason there’s still some stuff being added in via the latest updates is simply that the devs can’t resist working on it.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty expansion was very good, so good in fact, that it ended up popping up in some GOTY debates despite being, you know, a DLC. That’s a pretty high bar to try and match, but the game’s director reckons that’s something that CD Projekt is definitely capable of.
]]>Psst, did you know that the Cyberpunk 2077’s devs had added a fresh little secret to the game alongside one of its recent updates? Well, CD Projekt did just that, and to see it, you’ll have to get up close and personal with a giant burger.
]]>The player's choice nominees for the BAFTA game awards have been announced, and feature a wall-to-wall roster of absolute bangers for the public to pick a champion from. As the last major video game awards show for 2023 heavy-hitters, this could be the last chance for some of these games to take home a trophy come April.
]]>If you’ve long believed that the one thing missing from Cyberpunk 2077 is the chance for V to embrace their true calling as an art snob, rather than just living in a flat full of scruffy Samurai posters, then you’re in luck thanks to a new mod.
]]>Bad news, fans of interesting things, it looks like the mysterious new IP in the works at The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 studio CD Projekt isn’t a cosmic horror game set in feudal Japan. It’s a very specific option to rule out, but that’s what co-CEO Michał Nowakowski has done.
]]>Following the cancellation of a few recent projects, including a Deus Ex game that was in development at Eidos Montreal, Adam Jensen’s voice actor - Elias Toufexis - has bid what looks to be a potential farewell to the character. The good news is that Cyberpunk 2077 fans have already started submitting their calls for him to take on a similar role in Project Orion.
]]>If you’ve played Cyberpunk 2077, one of the scenes that may well have imprinted itself on your brain is the sequence that sees you get to take to the stage with Samurai as Johnny Silverhand way back before he got relic’d. One thing you might not know, however, is that the kidnapping scene that follows it was originally recorded to be a lot more harrowing.
]]>If you’re looking for a fresh reason to delve back into Cyberpunk 2077’s brilliant Phantom Liberty expansion, a new mod that aims to encourage and help you out as you hunt for all of Dogtown’s hidden gear and secrets is well worth checking out.
]]>We already knew work had kicked off on Cyberpunk 2077’s sequel since the calendar flipped over to 2024, and now CD Projekt has revealed some of the fresh talent that’s joined the team of Night City vets working on the game.
]]>A fresh patch for Cyberpunk 2077 has arrived and among its pretty hefty list of tweaks is a fix aimed at finally forcing the game’s misbehaving melee finisher animations to actually trigger when they’re supposed to.
]]>A Cyberpunk 2077 modder who made it possible for PC players to hang out with the game’s romantic interests at V’s apartment — long before CD Projekt added in its own romantic hangout feature with Update 2.1 — says they found it flattering to see something similar to their work be officially implemented.
]]>CD Projekt’s Cyberpunk series has plenty of momentum built up following the release of the stellar Phantom Liberty expansion, and it certainly seems to have given CD Projekt’s devs a pep in their step as they kick off 2024 by getting to work on Cyberpunk 2077’s sequel.
]]>We all knew Cyberpunk 2077‘s Phantom Liberty expansion had done a great job of giving the game a huge second wind following its rocky original release, but CD Projekt has just put a number on that success.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's very detailed and immersive conversation mechanics are one of the game’s biggest strengths, but don’t expect them to immediately become industry standard going forwards.
]]>“I designed the (the) Chimera to be inorganic, but human enough to be frightening,” Masanobu ‘Tomi’ Tomita, senior supervising sound designer at Sound Lab, a Keywords Studio, tells me. “I wanted people to be in awe of this beast and feel its power when playing the game.”
]]>CD Projekt has released the full patch notes for Cyberpunk 2077's Update 2.1, which is set to arrive tomorrow and will be the game’s "Last Big Update".

]]>Warning: Spoilers for Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty lie ahead.
]]>Player feedback on Cyberpunk 2077 led CD Projekt to change how it handled choice and consequence in Phantom Liberty.
]]>CD Projekt is aiming to try and mirror the incredible transformation seen across its Witcher games with its follow-up to Cyberpunk 2077.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 was never going to get an expansion designed to take place following the conclusion of the base game’s main story, as the team behind the game didn’t want to risk diluting how V’s tale ends.
]]>The latest Cyberpunk 2077 patch addresses a number of issues, including a bug that’d caused some of the vehicle delivery missions added to the game with the Phantom Liberty expansion to become physically impossible to complete.

]]>Spoilers for Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty lie ahead. Read on carefully!
]]>The Polish language version of Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty expansion features a recreation of a deceased actor’s voice made using AI technology.
]]>After a number of players began to notice that some of Cyberpunk 2077’s passive skill effects weren't working as intended for them in saves made following the arrival of the game’s 2.01 patch, a modder has stepped up to rectify the issue.
]]>Playing with the best Cyberpunk 2077 David Martinez build is a bit like playing on hard mode, but without actually changing the difficulty level. Going all-in on David’s unique form of combat means sacrificing a lot of perks and skills you’d normally leap at the chance to unlock in favor of brawling and maxing out your cyberware perks.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 received its massive 2.0 update and had the Phantom Liberty expansion added to it late last month, and now one of the game’s must-have mods has gotten a revamp to match.
]]>Given that Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.0 update totally revamped its perk trees, offering players the chance to comprehensively re-build the skill-sets of their futuristic mercenaries, plenty of those who’ve headed back to Night City to play the Phantom Liberty expansion have done just that.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 is officially done with. CD Projekt Red has said as much, with the massive 2.0 overhaul update being the last big one the game will receive. We've known since last year that a sequel is in the works, unsurprising given the 25 million copies sold since its release three years ago. Production has even started on the as-of-yet untitled sequel, though with Phantom Liberty only having just been released it's likely to be early days yet. But CD Projekt Red, I have one request for you to consider as you work on the follow-up: please make the character creator not so pointless.
]]>You need more Cyberpunk 2077 Relic Points to take full advantage of your new skill tree and learn vital stealth and combat abilities. Songbird is kind enough to get you started with several, but after that, you’re on your own. Dogtown is home to roughly half a dozen defunct Militech terminals that you can track down to get another Relic Point, though they’re not exactly easy to find. Most are tucked away in some ruined corner of Dogtown or behind a criminal activity of some kind.
]]>Picking the best Cyberpunk 2077 Relic skills is a bit more straightforward than choosing which regular Cyberpunk 2.0 skills to pick. The Relic functions that Songbird activates are fewer in number and less specialized, and while they’re still worth integrating into your cyber-kit, the scarcity of Relic points means you want to pick the most useful ones as early as you can.
]]>This article will contain top-level spoilers for all of Cyberpunk 2077’s various endings, including the new ending that can be unlocked via the Phantom Liberty DLC. You have been warned.
]]>The Chimera core is one of Cyberpunk 2077's most obscure resources. The game makes a point of telling you to take it, but then doesn't give you too much explicit guidance on what to do with it. This has left some players of the Phantom Liberty DLC hanging onto it for the entirely of the new storyline, waiting in vain for the moment when they'll be prompted to use it.
]]>Patch 2.01 for Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion Phantom Liberty has rolled out on PC, PlayStation 5. and Xbox Series X/S, fixing the most common issues players have encountered.
]]>Not long after you arrive in Dogtown, the new area added in Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty DLC, you'll receive a phone call from your buddy Coach Fred about a young boxer in the area who could do with V's distinctive brand of mercenary assistance.
]]>Turns out that Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is hiding a little reference to The Witcher 3, and one that should be music to your ears.
]]>It seems like CD Projekt Red has snuck in Idris Elba's character in Cyberpunk 2077 elsewhere in the game before you even meet him in the DLC.
]]>A sense of Deja Vu swept the gaming industry this week as we once again heard that familiar refrain about the latest update making Cyberpunk 2077 properly good now. No really, they’ve done it this time. It’s definitely now the game that they promised back in 2020, or 2018, or 2013, depending on when you start counting. Patch 1.2 really fixed everything. Except until patch 1.6, which fixed everything. Now, though, patch 2.0 has fixed everything. If you get Phantom Liberty, which really fixes everything.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 skill progression received quite the overhaul in the RPG’s big, free 2.0 update. CDPR streamlined V’s abilities by regrouping them under new names and categories and altered the way you level them up. Since skills are entirely separate from perks and other abilities, you can feasibly rank up all five and stack your V with some pretty sweet bonuses, depending on how you play.
]]>After an almost three year long wait, the first (and only) expansion for Cyberpunk 2077 is here. Phantom Liberty offers a whole new storyline to explore, one that sees you getting wrapped up in a political spy thriller as you're tasked with saving the president of the NUSA. It also adds in a whole new area to explore, Dogtown, a cordoned off section of Night City that has its own rules and militia. Dogtown isn't the biggest area compared to the rest of the game's locales, but honestly? I think it's better than the entire rest of the map.
]]>If you want to see Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty all the way through to the end, you should be careful about which work you say no to.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty DLC has a couple of different endings, one of which unlocks a new ending for the base game as well. Naturally, there are one or two key choices to make along the way that determine which branch of the story you end up seeing.
]]>Lucretia My Reflection is one of the longest missions added with Cyberpunk 2077's Phantom Liberty DLC, with a few distinct phases taking place across multiple in-game days. It represents the end of the DLC storyline's first act, and while it's largely linear, there are a couple of minor choices to be made along the way, as well as some puzzles that might catch you out.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's first piece of story DLC has arrived, alongside a 2.0 update overhauling many of the systems in the base game. For players who've already spent some significant time in Night City — and maybe even reached one or more of the game's multiple endings — it's a perfect opportunity to start again from the beginning and see what's new, as well as maybe check out what happens if you make some different choices along the way.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 is going through something of a redemption arc at the moment, helped last year by the honestly quite good Edgerunners from Studio Trigger, even more so now thanks to its 2.0 update and soon-to-be released expansion, Phantom Liberty. There's been a number of "it was always good" type of comments cropping up recently, which to be honest I'm not entirely confident about. Yes, the 2.0 update certainly has improved the game in a number of ways, but personally I think some of the changes the game needed should have taken place long before the game was finished.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077's recent 2.0 update has made some big changes to the game, but it's also added some extras here and there, like a brand new arcade game.
]]>Elon Musk does not have a cameo in Cyberpunk 2077 despite rumblings on the internet saying he's in the game. This is according to a senior CD Projekt RED staffer who worked on the game extensively.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077 was always good. Deep down, underneath the disgraceful mess that was the last-generation version of the game and controversy about some of its tonal elements… there was a really good game. A truly great game, even. With that said, the public battering that developer CD Projekt RED took for the state of that launch game was worth it. It’s even more worth it now.
]]>CD Projekt RED announced a release date for Update 2.0 to Cyberpunk 2077 in the latest episode of Night City Wire.
]]>For a certain type of person on the internet, having actual tangible evidence that the Series S was “holding back” its more expensive and powerful stablemate must have felt like christmas coming early. We’ve known for months, you see, that the as-yet unannounced Xbox Series version of Baldur’s Gate 3 has been in development limbo because Larian can’t get the split screen co-op mode working nicely on the cheap Xbox. And because Microsoft insist on feature parity between the cheap Xbox and the no-so-cheap Xbox, it meant that nobody on the Xbox platform would be getting to play the celebrated RPG.
]]>After release more than two years ago, Cyberpunk 2077 has crawled its way to an overall "very positive" rating on Steam.
]]>Over the past few weeks, Cyberpunk 2077 has been back on everyone’s lips. I got home from Summer Games Fest and immediately started downloading CD Projekt Red’s controversial RPG on my PlayStation 5, because – after what I saw in Phantom Liberty – I need a save file ready to go on my console.
]]>When Mike Pondsmith first came up with the Cyberpunk 2077 universe, he wanted to make sure punk – proper punk – was at the heart of it. “It’s not just the philosophical attitude of the punk scene and it’s not just the music – everything about punk inspired Cyberpunk originally,” he told me, years ago, in a crowded room at E3.
]]>Phantom Liberty was always intended as a major expansion for Cyberpunk 2077. It's taken developer CD Projekt Red a long time to make (though in part because it spent months fixing the launch mess), but it's also looking like it's going to be bigger than a typical DLC.
]]>Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty still doesn't have a release date yet, but CD Projekt Red says we'll start to hear more about it this June.
]]>Welcome to VG247's Best Games Ever Podcast: Episode 32 - the best game of 2023
