Cyberpunk 2077 Receives 2.0 Update for Phantom Liberty Expansion
The highly anticipated 2.0 update for Cyberpunk 2077 has arrived, signaling the imminent release of the Phantom Liberty expansion pack. This update brings significant changes to the game’s gameplay and design, and fans are ecstatic. Recent Steam reviews indicate a remarkable increase in positivity, with nearly 90% of reviews being positive compared to the overall average of 79%. It’s clear that the game has come a long way since its rocky launch in 2020.
Exciting Video Comparing Cyberpunk 2077 2020 vs. 2.0
A Reddit user posted a seven-minute video that showcases the stark differences between the release version of Cyberpunk 2077 and its 2.0 counterpart. The video highlights the absence of certain mechanics in the original release, such as tire popping and police simulation, which have now been added and overhauled in the 2.0 update. It’s evident that the game has undergone substantial changes.
Mixed Reactions and Comparisons with Other Games
While the 2.0 update has received mostly positive feedback, the video also reveals some features that have become worse compared to the release version. Although the water textures have improved, the playable character’s shadow now twitches and glitches out, which has been a point of criticism since the game’s launch. This suggests that the game may still have some unfinished elements beyond the Phantom Liberty expansion.
The 2.0 update has sparked discussions and comparisons with other games, particularly Rockstar Games’ GTA 5. Players have noticed similarities in the new police simulation and driving mechanics between Cyberpunk 2077 and GTA 5. Despite their different genres, the comparison to the universally acclaimed GTA 5 is a testament to the significant improvements in Cyberpunk 2077.
What Lies Ahead for Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 is far from reaching its final destination. The Phantom Liberty expansion is receiving praise as one of the best expansion packs ever, and players will get to experience it on September 26. CD Projekt Red’s plans for the future of their futuristic RPG remain to be seen.
