Update 2.5 — what's in it

Edgerunners 2 Update, October 22 — PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Mac; Switch 2 followed shortly.

Clampdown quest

A Night City Prison break-in serving as a prequel to the anime — no spoilers for the show. Rewards: King's full five-piece outfit and the Coronation Iconic Tech Revolver.

Dual wielding

A genuinely new playstyle — equip two pistols or revolvers with dedicated perks and abilities.

Glamdocs

New cyberware vendors offering 40 cosmetic cyberware styles with color and decal customization.

Mod.io integration

An in-game mods panel to find and install community mods directly — plus a new radio station with tracks from both anime seasons.

How to start the Clampdown quest

  1. Finish the main quest The Heist (and its follow-ups Love Like Fire / Playing for Time so the open world is fully unlocked).
  2. Complete any two gigs for Wakako Okada, the Japantown fixer — Tyger and Vulture or We Have Your Wife both count.
  3. Wait for Wakako's text "A Request from King" — skipping time 24-36 hours usually triggers it; Street Cred 16 forces it if stuck.
  4. Meet at the BuryGer near MLK & Brandon in Santo Domingo — the smuggled gear is under the bench.

Multiplayer in Night City

Still unofficial — but it exists.

Cyberpunk 2077 remains a single-player game officially. The community-made Open 77 multiplayer mod launched November 6 and lets players roam Night City together — it's a fan project, so expect jank, and it only works on PC.

FAQ

Is Update 2.5 free?

Yes — free for everyone who owns the base game. Phantom Liberty and the Ultimate Edition are not required.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 worth playing in 2026?

Yes — the 2.x-era game is a different beast from launch, and Update 2.5 adds a fresh quest, dual wielding and mod support on top.

Does Cyberpunk 2077 have New Game Plus?

No official NG+ — replay value comes from different life paths, builds and difficulty. Community mods fill some of the gap.
