Cyberpunk 2077 hasn’t said its final piece just yet—we’re ending the year with the free Update 2.2, bringing even more to Night City. See what’s waiting for players in the game!
Update 2.2
Created in partnership with Virtuos, a leading content production company that specializes in video game development and art production, the free update is available to everyone who owns Cyberpunk 2077 on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC.
- Express Yourself! – Style over substance is an oft-heard motto in Night City, and we take it seriously—this update brings new cosmetic cyberware, tattoos, makeup options, and much more to character customization!
- Fresh Paint for Your Ride – All luxury or sports cars that have partnered with Rayfield now have access to exclusive CrystalCoat technology, meaning players can swap out the colors of select rides! Not to mention, TwinTone, a new Kiroshi upgrade, makes it possible to snag the paint jobs of the competition—as long as they’ve got the same tech, of course.
- Level Up with Photo Mode – Check out the enhanced functionality within photo mode—crafted with feedback from our incredible community of Virtual Photographers! Thanks to their input and testing, you can now enjoy features like improved camera mode, new lighting options, and much more. And the best part? You can showcase your favorite shots right in V’s apartments!
- Johnny as a Passenger – Johnny’s taken a liking to car rides—as long as he and V have become acquainted, you can expect him to hang out in the passenger seat!
