Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way after several updates and the hype generated due to Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Developer CD Projekt Red aims to use its current moment for Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, the game’s massive expansion coming on September 26.
Following several gameplay showcases, CD Projekt Red has returned with another trailer. Phantom Liberty has been shown at Gamescom, highlighting the new gameplay mechanics.
Why it matters: Phantom Liberty will be the last expansion for Cyberpunk 2077. Therefore, the studio has taken extra care to ensure the release is as polished as possible.
The trailer is packed with new gameplay mechanics.
It highlights new additions to the world of Cyberpunk 2077, like vehicular combat, new vehicles, a larger variety of weapons, and more.
Previously, CD Projekt Red confirmed a massive overhaul to various gameplay systems alongside the Phantom Liberty expansion. These changes are also seen in the footage.
A redesigned perk system, revamped police, and more should ensure that Cyberpunk 2077 feels better than ever for returning and new players.
Players also gain the ability to deflect bullets with a katana, and a new relic tree will allow for further customization and optimization of different playstyles.
While these features have many players excited for Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, base game players will not be left behind.
Many of the new revamped mechanics will be added to the base game, continuing the studio’s quest to refine Cyberpunk 2077 to perfection.
Despite a rocky start, Cyberpunk 2077 has found its place among the biggest RPG titles on the market, and fans are looking forward to more content from the expansion.
Due to the excitement for the upcoming expansion, Cyberpunk 2077 became the third best-selling release on Steam recently, and it is expected to continue this success.
CD Projekt Red is also working on a sequel, which is currently in pre-production. Fans can expect many of the gameplay mechanics from the expansion to be improved further in the sequel.
