CD Projekt Red Announces Ultimate Edition of Cyberpunk 2077
Gamers are in for a treat as CD Projekt Red recently announced the release of an Ultimate Edition for Cyberpunk 2077. Set to launch on December 5, this special edition comes with some exciting features. However, there are a few important details that gamers should be aware of.
The Ultimate Edition of Cyberpunk 2077 will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. While the PC version is digital only, fans of physical media will be delighted to know that the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions will come in disc format. This makes it the first time that players can purchase these versions on a physical disc.
However, it’s worth noting that the Ultimate Edition will not be available for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This is because it includes the Phantom Liberty DLC expansion, which was specifically designed for current-gen platforms.
Furthermore, although the Phantom Liberty expansion is included in the Ultimate Edition, it will not be available on the disc for the PS5 version. Instead, players who purchase the Ultimate Edition for PS5 will need to download the expansion separately using a code that comes bundled with the game. The same applies to the PC version. On the other hand, physical Xbox Series X/S copies will include the Phantom Liberty expansion on the disc, as confirmed by CD Projekt Red’s global community director, Marcin Momot.
For gamers who have yet to experience Cyberpunk 2077, the Ultimate Edition is an excellent choice. Aside from the included DLC, this edition offers the most up-to-date version of the game. It’s important to note that the initial release of Cyberpunk 2077 faced numerous bugs and glitches. However, with updates and improvements over time, it has become a much smoother gameplay experience, as evident from the “very positive” Steam reviews received in June 2023, two and a half years after the game’s original launch.
CD Projekt Red has not yet disclosed the price of the Ultimate Edition, which might be a concern for some potential buyers. However, the exciting features and improvements it offers may outweigh any price concerns.
