Cyberpunk 2077?s 2.0 update was supposed to be the last major addition to the game (https://www.destructoid.com/cyberpunk-2077s-dlc-and-2-0-patch-are-the-last-big-updates-for-the-game/). But now CD Projekt Red is adding Update 2.1 to Cyberpunk, with some features that fans have been asking for since the game was first released.
In a REDstream event hosted on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/cdprojektred), quest director Pawe? Sasko and producer Monika Janowska laid out some of the changes that are coming in Cyberpunk Update 2.1 on December 5 (https://www.destructoid.com/cyberpunk-2077-update-2-1-arrives-december-5-free-gameplay-elements/), many of which seem to be inspired by the most popular Cyberpunk mods (https://www.destructoid.com/best-cyberpunk-2077-mods/).
The most notable addition to the game is a functional metro system that includes five different fully functional metro lines spanning the entire city. The Night City Area Rapid Transit System provides functional fast travel in addition to some interesting role-playing options. Players can enjoy the view of the city while riding NCART, and the team also hinted at NPC interactions and other surprises hidden within the system.

On the Night City airwaves
Another role-playing focused feature coming to the game is the Radioport that lets players wander the city while listening to their favorite station. The Port will automatically turn off during conversations and moments when the game?s score comes to the forefront, but it?ll flip back on when players return to exploration.
Update 2.1 is also going to add some gameplay elements centered on vehicles. The game?s car races will now be replayable opportunities to earn eddies and Autofixer discounters. Motorcycles are also getting a minor overhaul. Five new bikes are being added, and players will now be able to use throwing weapons and perform various tricks while driving. Along with that, Sasko hinted at new car chases that can emerge from interactions with various Night City gangs in the base game.

I Really Want to Stay at Your House
Those seem to be the biggest additions, but they aren?t the only ones. The team hinted at options to hang out with characters you've romanced (https://twitter.com/CyberpunkGame/status/1730613401661886879), and one gameplay clip revealed a Judy-centric mission called "I Really Want to Stay at Your House" in the HUD. Bosses have apparently been reworked, and the team specifically pointed out that Adam Smasher has been made stronger, will respond to player builds, and has his signature Sandevistan from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
The Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 will also support DualSense controllers on PC and will offer new accessibility features (https://www.cyberpunk.net/en/news/49591/update-2-1-accessibility-features), including colorblind modes, font size options, and some HUD customization.
In the stream, the team said that even more changes will be found in the upcoming patch notes and the game itself when Update 2.1 releases alongside the Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition (https://www.destructoid.com/cyberpunk-2077-is-getting-an-ultimate-edition-next-month/) on December 5.
