Cyberpunk 2077 celebrates its 4th anniversary with a fresh, new update

It’s hard to believe that it’s already been four years since Cyberpunk 2077 was released, but yesterday marked the game’s fourth anniversary, a huge milestone for a game with such an eventful development history.

To celebrate the occasion, developer studio CD Projekt RED has released a new update that adds new features to the now-mature game. Update 2.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 is already live and brings with it new vehicles, an improved photo mode, new customizations for main character V, and changes to some quests, including several bug fixes.

Overall, the changes aren’t groundbreaking. However, the fact that CD Projekt RED is still making improvements to the game this far after release and providing the community with updates is a very good sign. Over the years, Cyberpunk 2077 has grown into a very comprehensive and well-optimized experience.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition

Cyberpunk 2077 previously got an Ultimate Edition release, which includes the main game and the very successful story expansion “Phantom Liberty.” The Ultimate Edition was released on December 5, 2023 for PC, Xbox Series X, and PlayStation 5.

To mark this fourth anniversary, CD Projekt RED has announced that a native Mac version of the Ultimate Edition will be released on February 5, 2025 and, in tandem, has launched a trailer for the upcoming Ultimate Edition, which you can watch in full on YouTube:

What happens after that?

CD Projekt RED is currently working on a sequel in The Witcher series. The Witcher 4 probably won’t have Geralt as its main character and will instead deal with his foster daughter Ciri or a completely new character.

A release date for the game is currently unknown. However, we can probably only expect a completely new game from the Polish development studio in 2026 at the earliest.

At the same time, a remake of the first Witcher game is also being worked on, which could be released earlier than that.
