Cyberpunk 2077 Patch Notes Detail Huge Update and New Free DLC

Yesterday, CD Projekt Red announced a new Cyberpunk 2077 update. The update still isn't live, but today the Polish developer followed the announcement up with the update's patch notes, which, like previous updates, are massive in length. That said, not only does the update come with a huge slab of changes, improvements, and fixes, but it's also going to add three pieces of free DLC, including DLC featuring Johnny Silverhand.

At the moment of publishing, there's still no word when Google Stadia, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC players can expect the update, other than that it's "coming soon." As a result, we also still don't know how much space you will need to clear for the update and its boatload of tweaks.

Below, you can read more on the patch notes, including what free DLC they are adding:

Free DLC:

• Johnny Silverhand's Alternative Appearance – can be enabled in Settings in the "Additional Content" tab.
• Multilayered Syn-Leather Deltajock Jacket, Luminescent Punk Jacket - both available in the stash in V's apartment after receiving a message from Viktor after completing The Ride. They're of Rare/Iconic quality by default, Crafting Specs to craft a higher quality will also be unlocked.
• Archer Quartz "Bandit" - available as a reward or for purchase (depending on choices made by player) after completing Ghost Town and then receiving a message from Dakota or Rogue. If you haven't received the message, make sure to be in the Badlands area and move further away from Dakota's workshop. Dakota will also need a couple of days to contact you.

Improvements:

• Improved the minimap's zoom level when driving, so that it's more zoomed out and easier to navigate.
