CD Projekt has announced a surprise update to Cyberpunk 2077, due out this week.<\/p>\n

The Cyberpunk 2077 Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5) launches Thursday, October 22, and while CD Projekt kept the details quiet, it has confirmed it will feature content “inspired” by the anime. Edgerunners 2 hits Netflix today, so this update is well-timed to capitalize on heightened interest in all things Cyberpunk 2077.<\/p>\n

But what, exactly, is in the update itself? CD Projekt took to social media<\/a> to confirm that Cyberpunk 2077 will get “new items and features,” which includes the content inspired by Edgerunners 2.”<\/p>\n

“Update 2.5 will be dropping on October 22, 2026, marking yet another opportunity to dive back into Night City or experience it for the very first time,” the developer continued.<\/p>\n

What does new “features” mean? In yet another social media post<\/a>, this time from the Cyberpunk 2077 account, CD Projekt teased, “New Edgerunners, new chrome, new playstyle,” adding: “We’re talking cyberware customization, a new dual-wielding playstyle, and more!”<\/p>\n

The mention of a new dual-wielding playstyle has certainly got fans excited. \u201cSo f***ing hyped about what we cooked for you,\u201d teased Pawe\u0142 Sasko<\/a>, associate game director on the in-development Cyberpunk 2. Perhaps fans should get their hopes up,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
