You are watching: Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty 2.0 Update: What is New in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Update?

It brings an overhaul to a number of gameplay mechanics and core game features (such as the police system and Perk trees) along with various fixes and improvements. These changes apply to the base game and are available to all players on PC and current-gen consoles, free of charge. There’s more to come on September 26th for owners of the Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty expansion!

You can continue playing from existing saves, but in order to have the best experience of the extensive changes we made, we recommend starting a new playthrough. Come September 26th, owners of Phantom Liberty will also have the option to jump straight into the story of the expansion by starting a new game with a new character that is already adequately leveled up.

Because changes to crucial game systems are extensive, we strongly recommend uninstalling pre-2.0 mods until the modding community has a chance to update them. Outdated mods can disrupt the experience in many ways and, in some situations, may cause critical errors.

Please note that the change in PC system requirements announced in June comes into effect with this update. It’s especially important to note that running the game on an SSD is now a requirement. We advise against running the game on an HDD (or on a SD card on Steam Deck) due to lower bandwidth which may cause new content to not stream properly.

This doesn’t necessarily mean that 2.0 won’t launch using the previous minimum requirements. However, because it wasn’t tested with them and we won’t be actively supporting them, we cannot guarantee the game will work. We recommend considering an upgrade to ensure a more stable gaming experience. Should you want to or need to, you can also revert to the 1.63 version of the game, available on Steam and GOG.

The full list of changes would be way too long to publish, but we’ve listed the most notable ones below:

COMBAT

New Police System

• The NCPD will chase you when you commit a crime, whether on foot or in a vehicle.
• The types of units in pursuit and their behavior will depend on your NCPD Wanted Level. These chases can include various NCPD vehicles, roadblocks and MaxTac swooping in with AVs.
• The NCPD will now be present in the world, actively patrolling the streets of Night City. Officers working at crime scenes will now also engage in pursuits.
• You can now hear NCPD radio chatter through the radio.
• It’s now possible to quickhack NCPD officers.

Vehicle Combat

• Added the option to engage in combat while driving a vehicle from either first-person or third-person perspective. While driving, you can use pistols, submachine guns and health items. Some vehicles come equipped with mounted weapons. Melee combat is possible on motorcycles.
• Vehicle tires can now be shot or slashed.
• Introduced new Perks that unlock a variety of vehicle-related abilities such as quickhacking vehicles, increasing collision damage, boosting vehicle weaponry, allowing the use of Sandevistan and Kerenzikov cyberware, and the ability to exit moving vehicles quickly and stylishly.
• Vehicles vary in durability. Vehicles equipped with CrystalDome technology receive additional protection.
• You can now encounter AI-driven and randomized chases between different factions in a given district.

Combat AI Enhancements

Progressing in a given Perk tree will allow you to unlock special abilities such as Overclock mode for netrunners, Bolt shots for Tech weapons, the Adrenaline Rush ability for Body-focused character builds, and so on. Because we introduced extensive changes to the Perk system, your spent Perk points on existing playthroughs have been refunded. You can also choose to reset your Attributes once. Feel free to redistribute these Perk and Attribute points to suit your preferred playstyle before you continue playing.
• We merged the previous Skills into five new ones – Headhunter, Netrunner, Shinobi, Solo, Engineer. These are not restricted by their corresponding Attribute’s level. On existing playthroughs, your progression on old skills has been transferred to their new counterparts. Skills unlock new passive buffs every 5 levels, and can be leveled up to a max of 60.
• Removed the option to reset all Perks at once. Instead, it is now possible to refund each Perk individually for free.
• Introduced new kinds of progression shards: Attribute Shards, Carrying Capacity Shards and Cyberware Capacity Shards.

CYBERWARE

What is New in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Update?

Changes to Skills and Perks: 

They made big changes to the abilities and bonuses your character can have. They removed some old bonuses and added new ones that can make a bigger difference in how you play. For example, you can now do things like dash in the air, deflect bullets with swords, and even control or blow up cars with special hacks.

Character Attributes: 

The main things about your character, like strength and intelligence, haven’t changed. But now, the more points you put into these attributes, the more skills you can unlock. You start with basic skills and can unlock more powerful ones as you level up.

Cyberware: 

They made some changes to the cybernetic enhancements you can get. You can have more of them now, and you can manage them better with a new system. Plus, your armor is linked to your cybernetic enhancements instead of your clothes.

Stamina: 

They changed how stamina works. Now, you don’t use up stamina by running or jumping, only when you use melee weapons or guns. This means you can move around more easily in fights.

Vehicle Combat: 

You can now use your weapons while driving cars and motorcycles, and you can get into chases on the streets. It’s a bit like the police chases in Grand Theft Auto games

New Police System:

How to Access Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty?

To access Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty, there are three ways you can go about it, depending on your situation:

Old Save: 

If you’ve played Cyberpunk 2077 before and have a saved game, you can simply load that save. However, you must have completed the base game mission “Transmission” as part of the Voodoo Boys questline with Maman Brigitte and Placide to access the new content. Be aware that your perk points will be reset so you can assign them in the updated skill trees.

New Game: 

If you want a fresh start or are new to the game, you can start a new game. You’ll have two options: “Regular Start” lets you play through the main game until Phantom Liberty becomes available, while “Skip Ahead to Phantom Liberty” gets you right into the new story content at Level 20 with automatic attribute points, which can be reset anytime.

Regardless of your choice, once you meet the criteria, you’ll be contacted by a character named Songbird, starting your journey in Phantom Liberty.

Cyberpunk 2077

“Cyberpunk 2077” is a video game released in 2020. It’s set in a dark and futuristic world called “Night City” in California. In the game, you play a character named “V,” a mercenary. V gets into trouble when a heist goes wrong, and they end up with a special chip in their head that has the mind of a famous rock star named Johnny Silverhand.

As you play, you’ll have to work with Johnny to figure out how to remove the chip and save V’s life. The game was developed by a big team and featured actor Keanu Reeves. It got a lot of attention before its release but had some problems, especially on older game consoles, like bugs and performance issues.

Despite these issues, it was praised for its story, world, and graphics. Some parts of the gameplay got mixed reviews, and some people had concerns about how it represented transgender characters. Overall, “Cyberpunk 2077” was a highly anticipated game with a lot of both excitement and controversy.
