CD Projekt RED has prepared another major Cyberpunk 2077 update, this time numbered 2.5 and subtitled Edgerunners 2 Update. The free update launches on October 22 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, while Nintendo Switch 2 and the Mac version will receive it a few days later.

New Clampdown mission: A story mission tied to Edgerunners 2 that also offers a five-piece gear set inspired by the character King.
New Welcome to Paradise mission: A guided tour of Night City with Richard Night, during which players will uncover another of the city’s secrets.
12 new tarot cards: Minor Arcana introduces a new collectible activity and a special reward.
Mods on consoles: Integration with the mod.io service will allow community mods to be installed on PC, Mac, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Cyberware customization: Five new Glamdocs specialists will let players change the appearance and colors of Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire and the Projectile Launch System.
New character customization options: New hairstyles, clothing and other cosmetic items are being added.
New radio station: HKGN 102.0 FM will feature music from the Edgerunners series.
Expanded Photo Mode: More options for photographing characters and the Night City environment.
DLSS 4.5: Support for 6× Multi Frame Generation, Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and the second-generation Transformer model.
Additional graphics technologies: Support for Samsung Odyssey 3D, MetalFX Frame Interpolation on Mac and AMD FSR Anti-Lag 2.
Graphics optimizations: Improved ray tracing and HDR, along with optimizations for PS5 Pro.
Control improvements: FOV settings on consoles, a clearer save list and improved inventory filtering.
Bug fixes: Numerous fixes for missions, controls, stability and image rendering.

Update 2.5 expands not only Night City’s story content but also combat and character customization options. Console mod support is a particularly notable addition, potentially bringing the game a continued stream of community-created content. All the new features are available free to owners of the game.
