Cyberpunk 2077?s 2.0 update is approaching to clean up the mess wrought by the
launch release. This release is separate from the Phantom Liberty expansion that launches
soon after as the update focuses more on overhauling systems found in the base game.


Although both have been advertised alongside each other, they launch on separate
dates, with the update coming on September 21. A new trailer for the update highlights the
revamped police system, adding functioning police to the game so that committing crimes
has consequences. There's even proper MaxTac implementation in case a rampage gets so extreme the NCPD believes V has gone cyberpsycho.

Other prominent features in Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 include a rebuilt cyberware system and
retooled skill trees to better balance V?s capabilities. Hopefully, this version is the best as this marks the second time the skill trees have been redone.


Cyberpunk 2077 has been on a long road to redemption since its disastrous 2020 launch. The
game has always had its defenders, but the numerous bugs and missing features made it hard
to enjoy.


Now that it's becoming what it arguably should have been, the hype for it feels real again. While
more tempered than its original pre-release cycle, Cyberpunk 2077 has become something to
be excited about again. It still has some bugs and issues, but not nearly to the same degree it used to have.


It?s a redemptive arc that places it along other initial disasters like No Man?s Sky or Final
Fantasy XIV which eventually sorted itself out. Hopefully, this update will solidify its
placement among titles that rose amidst the ashes.
