Phantom Liberty will take place after the events of the main campaign, and will not only be adding a new story and missions, but it will also star the charismatic Idris Elba as Solomon Reed, alongside the returning Keanu Reeves as Johnny Silverhand.
However, as announced by CD Projekt Red during Gamescom's Opening Night Live, fans will also be treated to a new content update that will launch alongside the expansion adding a wealth of new features, even if you don’t pick up Phantom Liberty.
Update 2.0 will improve enemy AI during combat, implement a new Relic skill tree and will finally improve the AI of the NCPD meaning that the law enforcement “will respond to player actions in more realistic and engaging ways, including setting up roadblocks, attempting to ram players off the road" and more. “Driving around Night City will also see upgrades with the introduction of vehicle combat, which allows the player to shoot while driving and quickhack enemy vehicles from cars and motorbikes," the press release added.
As you can imagine, fans are buzzing with the news of Update 2.0. The Twitter thread revealing the ‘New Ways to Play’ trailer was full of love and praise for CDPR, quite literally. “I LOVE YOU!” exclaimed Dynasky1102, to which the official Cyberpunk 2077 account said I love you back. How sweet!
Love you back. 🔥
