CD Projekt Red are inching closer to the release of their first expansion DLC for Cyberpunk 2077.
Even though Cyberpunk 2077 had a very rocky launch, developers have slowly but surely polished the game into a better state. And now they are closing in on launching their first DLC, titled Phantom Liberty.
Main story
As far as we know, Phantom Liberty will pick up directly from the end of Cyberpunk 2077. The president of the New United States, Rosalind Myers, has just crash-landed in a dangerous district of Night City called Dogtown. It will be up to V and a few sleeper agents to try and rescue her from the organization that controls Dogtown. How you go about this will be up to you since Phantom Liberty will give players plenty of choices in how they want to approach any given situation.

Since the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 was plagued by bugs and horrible performance, especially on old gen consoles, CD Projekt Red have promised a far better experience this time around. This is why they’ve given us this complete system requirements list, so people know what to expect on launch day.
