Cyberpunk 2077 2.5 Patch Notes - All Changes

CD PROJEKT RED has published the patch notes for the Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5) ahead of its release on October 22. The post invites players to read the list early, and it covers new Edgerunners content, a big cosmetics push, cross-platform mod support and a pile of technology upgrades for Cyberpunk 2077.

We will go over every change in the update, from the new Clampdown side quest and dual-wielding pistols to DLSS 4.5 support and the final bug fixes. You can also compare it with our earlier look at patch 2.1.

Cyberpunk 2077 2.5 Highlights

• Clampdown side quest: a new quest set before the events of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2.
• Dual-wielding: the new Double Trouble perk lets you wield two Pistols or Revolvers from the Power category.
• Hand cyberware skins: five Glamdocs can now restyle your Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire or Projectile Launch System.
• Cross-Platform Mod Support: browse and install mods from the in-game menu, powered by mod.io.
• DLSS 4.5: support arrives with up to 6X Multi Frame Generation.

Edgerunners Content

The update adds a new side quest called Clampdown, set before the events of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. To unlock it, complete The Heist and two gigs for Wakako, then wait for a message from her. The quest also gives you a new 5-piece gear set based on the character King.

There's also a new radio station, HKGN 102.0 FM, with a selection of tracks from the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners series.

Show Off: Outfits, Cyberware and Dual-Wielding

Five new outfit sets can be bought from certain clothing vendors. One more set will arrive in Night City a little later.

• Maxiwear: Heywood, Arroyo and Little China.
• Jinguji: City Center.
• NetWatch: Kabuki and Japantown.
• IconAmerica: Pacifica, Badlands and Northside.

The NUS Infiltrator clothing set can also be bought from clothing vendors in Kabuki and Japantown. Four new TWINTONE skins for the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech are available through Twitch Drops, and some hairstyles that were previously exclusive to NPCs are now available for V. Some are limited to feminine or masculine body types.

You can now customize your hand cyberware. Equip your Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire or Projectile Launch System, then visit one of 5 Glamdocs, marked with a spray paint icon on the map. Each sits in its own shop with an intro scene and a unique catalog of cyberware skins with customizable colors.

The new Double Trouble perk in the Cool tree, along with four auxiliary perks, adds a new playstyle that lets you dual-wield Pistols and Revolvers from the Power category. Photo Mode gets frames from the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game and new poses to show off your dual-wielding.

Mods and New Side Quests

Cross-Platform Mod Support, powered by mod.io, is a first step into cross-platform modding. You can browse and install a selection of player-created mods directly from the in-game menu, with more becoming available over time. It's available on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X|S.

Two more additions expand Night City:

• Welcome to Paradise: a side quest that takes you on a guided tour narrated by Richard Night. It unlocks after you complete The Heist and reach level 15 Street Cred.
• Minor Arcana Tarot Cards: 12 new cards to find across the city. The Tarot menu now separates Major and Minor Arcana, and the cards are part of a new side quest that extends Fool on the Hill. Collect them all for a special reward.

Quality of Life and Technology

• Saves in the Load Game menu are grouped by playthrough.
• Apartment and vehicle stashes get item filters.
• Modded saves carry a dedicated icon. Achievements and trophies can't be earned on console from a modded save.
