CD Projekt Red has revealed the contents of Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.1. This is an unexpected patch that will be released on December 5th along with the Ultimate Edition.
revealed in convulsions Stream, Cyberpunk 2077 Producer Monika Janowska and Quest Director Paweł Sasko, along with Senior Community Managers Amelia Kowat and Alisha Kozera, announced that the patch will include the long-requested subway system .
The original trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 featured a subway system alongside the film’s Phantom Liberty trailer, so CD Projekt Red ultimately decided to add it, Sasko said.
Players can travel between 19 subway stations, which can be used both as fast travel points and as a proper subway ride experience (which can be skipped at any time). In Night City he has five subway lines operating, each of which can be found on the map. The subway system is only accessible after the in-game Azure Square sequence when the player receives a call from the subway director.

“Our direction when we wanted to was to make sure that players were actually in the world and provided an immersive way to travel through the world,” Sasko said. said. “This is designed as a role-playing feature.”
With this update, you can now take your radio with you and listen to a variety of radio stations in Cyberpunk 2077 outside of your car. There are some limitations where the player cannot listen to the radio during conversations or along with scripted music, but in such cases the radio will click as if it were switched off, breaking the immersion. It is not.
CD Projekt Red also announced improvements to Cyberpunk 2077-based boss fights, including Adam Smasher. The villain has been the center of fan complaints for years, as players compared his abilities in the game to those in the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime. What was supposed to be the most intense battle in the game became a meme, with players finding ways to attack and easily destroy Smasher.
Car races will also be replayable soon. This means that his three races available in Claire Russell’s questline will no longer be the only races in Cyberpunk 2077. The player must first complete three of these, but will then be contacted by the race organizer and may burn rubber. See suitability. Winning races will earn players discounts on his website Auto Fixer, allowing you to buy new vehicles cheaper.
CD Projekt Red adds even more vehicles, including five motorcycles and Johnny Silverhand’s original Porsche 911. Details are sparse at this time, but Sasko hinted that this new car will be unlocked through an all-new quest. Also on the cars front, CD Projekt Red has added an impromptu car chase if a certain gang seeks revenge for the player’s choices, and enemies who discover the player who stole their car in car theft missions. Track players.
Motorcycle mechanics have also been upgraded, with wheelies, flips, leans, and more all added to Cyberpunk 2077. With update 2.1, players can also throw knives and axes from their bikes. Some of the previously blocked highways in Night City, which were open to players but had low traffic, have now been renovated into fully functional high-traffic roads.
The developer has also revamped the accessibility options and added a dedicated menu to Cyberpunk 2077. All previous accessibility settings have been moved here, and new features have also been added, such as turning off the timer in the hacking minigame. According to CD Projekt Red, a full breakdown of the revamped accessibility options will be released soon.
The developer has made it clear that this is not all that will be included in the new patch, and a full note will be released ahead of release. CD Projekt Red teased several other features, including the ability to hang out with romantic partners.
Update 2.0, which arrived with the Phantom Liberty expansion in September, will be the last major patch for Cyberpunk 2077 until November 2023, when CD Projekt Red announces that it will also release the Ultimate Edition with a new update, Update 2.1. It was expected that this would happen.
As for update 2.0, we laid the foundation for a new Cyberpunk 2077 experience, completely revamping the game with features like a new perk system and improved AI. It also puts an end to Elon Musk fan theories, references to the late racing legend Ken Block, and a strange addition to gaming’s biggest mystery.
Amazingly, CD Projekt was able to permanently lock missions with certain interaction options, including a way for players to opt out of the paid expansion’s events altogether.
In a 9/10 review, IGN said, “Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is a great addition to CD Projekt Red’s future RPG, which got its start with anime spinoff Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and its latest 2.0 update. We have completed an invaluable change of direction.”
