Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.0 Changes: All Confirmed Free Features

Even without purchasing the upcoming DLC “Phantom Liberty,” you will still receive all of these features for free in Patch 2.0.

• Revamp the Skill System;
• Introducing a Revolutionary Weapon and Loot System
• Refurbishing the Police System
• Overhaul from MaxTac;
• Vehicle-to-Vehicle combat;
• More open world activities;
• An improved and modernized combat system
• New Skill Tree;
• Redesigned Perks;
• Fresh additions: Gear, Armaments, Cyber enhancements, and Style
• Included in the new radio stations is the community radio show “Growl FM”.
• Combat AI improvements;
• Cyberpsychosis can be experienced by individuals who excessively implant cyberware.

The concept of Cyberpsychosis was initially depicted in the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunner. It entails potential repercussions arising from the use of cyberware, including feelings of depression, indifference, hallucinations, and abrupt intensifications in addictive tendencies like gambling, among others.

The inclusion of this feature in the game will make players more cautious about utilizing cyberwares, but it will also introduce an exciting sense of risk. In my opinion, this is one of the most significant improvements across the entire game. It requires careful consideration when selecting cyberware that aligns with your preferred style of play, while keeping in mind its potential major consequences. If the implementation mirrors that of the anime, the experience is bound to be captivating and extraordinary!

CD Project RED has completely revamped the game world and mechanics with Patch 2.0. If you’re like me and finished the game within weeks of its official release, you’ll find there’s plenty to explore and uncover in the upcoming update.
