In a thrilling turn of events, CD Projekt has announced that their popular open-world RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, is set to receive a surprise 2.2 update teeming with “cool stuff.” This announcement comes seven months after the studio confirmed that development on the game had officially concluded and just over a year since the last major update, version 2.1.

The gaming community is buzzing with anticipation as CD Projekt revealed the details of this upcoming update will be shared in a livestream on Twitch and YouTube, scheduled for Tuesday, December 10th at 4 PM GMT. While the exact contents of the 2.2 patch remain under wraps, the studio's community director, Marcin Momot, has taken to social media to temper expectations.

In his post, Momot addressed fan inquiries regarding support for the PS5 Pro and the inclusion of New Game Plus in the patch. “A lot of questions about whether PS5 Pro support and NG+ are coming with Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.2,” he stated firmly. “The answer is no. We do have some other cool stuff in the oven, and we'll talk about it tomorrow during the stream—we hope you'll like it too!”

This revelation may leave some fans disappointed, as CD Projekt had previously squashed hopes for a PS5 Pro upgrade, stating in November that they had “no plans” for such an enhancement. So, what can players look forward to in this update if not new console support or an additional gameplay mode?

Speculation is rife within the community about what might be included in the 2.2 update. Some enthusiasts theorize that it could feature fresh story content, new gameplay mechanics, or even quality-of-life improvements to enhance the gaming experience. Moreover, CD Projekt has been known to surprise its players with hidden features and exciting expansions to the game, keeping fans hopeful that the new “cool stuff” could include unexpected delights.

As the countdown to the livestream begins, stay tuned for more updates and insights into the future of Cyberpunk 2077. Will this update reignite the spark in its vast Night City, or will fans be left craving more? One thing's for sure—December 10th is a date to mark on your calendars!
