CD Projekt Red is no stranger to some surprise updates to their games. Long after, when most of us assumed that the game was done with content updates and support, we might get a surprise reveal. It’s happened before with The Witcher 3 and their most recent RPG release, Cyberpunk 2077. However, the anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 2.3 update is being pushed back.
We don’t know what to expect with the 2.3 update. It was just casually unveiled by CD Projekt Red with an intended launch at the end of this month. That’s when we would also learn what exactly this new update would deliver to the game. However, we’re finding out today that the development team needs a little more time to work through the content planned.
Taking to X, the official Cyberpunk 2077 developers revealed that they initially hoped to have the update ready for players on June 26, 2025. Now, as we quickly approach that date, it’s been discovered that more time is needed to ensure developers have the content working as intended. Unfortunately, the announcement didn’t include any details about what the update would entail or when it would arrive.
Instead, the developers noted that they are aiming for a scope similar to the previous 2.2 update. Some of the big features from that update included new cyberware, tattoos, cosmetics, vehicle customization, a photo mode, and the introduction of Johnny showing up as you ride around the infamous Night City.
It’s worth noting that this update is available for free across PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. We anticipate being able to include the Nintendo Switch 2 in that lineup with the Cyberpunk 2077 2.3 update. For now, we’ll have to sit by and wait for the developers to reveal when we can get our first look at the update.
In other news, we recently learned that CD Projekt Red developers took inspiration from Novigrad when developing The Witcher 4 tech demo. You’ll also find that this upcoming installment will be based on a console-first approach.
