Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.5 Releases
At CD Projekt Red’s Q3 2021 earnings call late last year, CD Projekt Group President and Co-CEO Adam Kiciński confirmed that the next-gen versions of Cyberpunk 2077 (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S) is expected in the first quarter of 2022, and guaranteed to be different from the original PlayStation 4/Xbox One version.
Today CD Projekt Red has officially launched the next-generation version of Cyberpunk 2077, which is Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.5. This update package has a capacity of about 50GB. The Xbox Series X/S supports smart distribution and can be upgraded directly to the new version, while the PlayStation 5 needs to be upgraded to the PS store. The new version fixes a large number of bugs in the game, and also adds free DLC, which is the largest update since the release of Cyberpunk 2077.
