Cyberpunk 2077 getting a substantial update to coincide with Edgerunners’ Netflix Season 2 release

CD Projekt Red has announced Update 2.5 for Cyberpunk 2077, a free update coinciding with the Netflix launch of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2 on October 21, 2026. The update arrives October 22 across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, with a Switch 2 version “coming shortly.”

The update introduces new items and features inspired by the anime’s second season, including cyberware customization options and a new dual-wielding playstyle. Additional content details remain unconfirmed until CD Projekt Red’s livestream reveal on October 21 at 5pm CEST, where associate game director Pawel Sasko will showcase the update’s full scope.

This release exemplifies CD Projekt Red’s extended support strategy for Cyberpunk 2077, mirroring their ongoing development of The Witcher 3, which received a remaster 11 years after its original launch. The synchronized timing between Edgerunners Season 2’s debut and the game update appears designed to capitalize on renewed audience interest and drive engagement across both the game and anime properties.
