CD Projekt is readying to release Cyberpunk 2077’s “biggest patch to date” – the third major update since the RPG’s disastrous launch<\/a> last December – and has now shared full details of what it will bring, including an improved minimap and the game’s first selection of free DLC.<\/p>\n

Prior to Cyberpunk’s launch, CD Projekt whipped up player interest with the promise of free post-launch DLC<\/a>. However, plans for additional content were put on hold while the developer worked to fix the game’s litany of bugs and to bring Cyberpunk’s widely lambasted last-gen console release<\/a> up to a more acceptable standard. Now though, according to senior quest designer Patrick Mills on tonight’s 1.3 update dev stream<\/a>, “streaming and memory management” have reached a point “where we can start trying to deliver those things”.<\/p>\n

To that end, 1.3 includes the first of Cyberpunk 2077’s free post-launch content, mostly falling into the category of minor cosmetic additions. There are two new jackets – a red and shiny number, plus a grey and yellow option with a fur collar – alongside the Quartz Bandit: an orange and black car with its innards on the outside. The jackets and car are two separate rewards unlocked by completing small tasks once players reach a certain point in the game (anyone beyond that point will also receive the DLC on loading a save), and CD Projekt says future DLC drops will follow the same pattern with the intention of trying to make the world feel richer and more whole.<\/p>\n
