It’s free and you can do it as often as you like. Character customization also includes more makeup and hair color options. Who’s the fairest of them all, now?

Living city

Combat AI

Multiple fixes and improvements to NPC melee and ranged combat AI and reactions, including taking cover, positioning, reloading, equipping weapons, dodging, blocking and many others.
Multiple improvements to dismemberment triggers, hit reactions and death animations, adding greater impact to ranged and melee combat.
Enemies are now much better at blocking and evading (Kerenzikov) attacks. The heavier the weapon, the easier it is to hit. The opposite is true for evading.
Further diversification of melee and ranged combat behaviors for different factions: reckless, aggressive, balanced, defensive and cautious.
Followers now contribute more in combat but can be defeated and temporarily disabled if they receive enough punishment.
Numerous fixes and balance changes to netrunner combat.

Crowd Improvements

Aggressive crowd behavior: certain NPC archetypes can and will enter combat with the player when provoked by aiming, shooting or fighting. Due to some technical challenges, this change is not available on the previous generation of consoles.
Time skips affect the state of NPCs, as well as reset the state of the devices, environments and certain scenes.
Improved crowd reactions, pathfinding and despawning.

Drive Model

Introducing our all new Burn Out Mode! Hold Gas + Brake to engage, steer to rotate. The old system only allowed rotating on the spot, now try modulating the inputs to see what you can do! Try brake stands, donuts, drifts or heat up the tires to do a drag-race style launch with a High Grip boost. The system now works at higher speeds, so you can hit the brake with gas applied on corner entry to cause oversteer on most cars. Keyboard users can optionally use new Secondary bindings on arrow keys (some keyboards ignore the third key press when just using WASD), but gamepads allow the most control of the system (as gamepads in general provide the driving experience preferred by a vast majority of players).
New Braking system produces consistent performance, front to rear, across all speeds. ABS simulation added. All vehicles brakes have been tuned to the new model.
Engine simulation improved. Clutch simulation added. These changes improve resistance forces from the engine when shifting, helping to remove unwanted wheel spin events.
Gearbox simulation improved. Much improved downshifting behavior. Transmission now realistically downshifts and has smarter shift logic to keep the engine in its sweet spot. Forward <-> Reverse shifting has been totally redone, allowing for J-Turns / Rockfords.
Motorcycles improved. All of the above improvements help to make them more stable. Additionally, steering model improvements have been added, and they have been retuned.
Tune improvements to various cars. Quadra Type-66 (all models, especially Avenger), Mizutani Shion (especially MZ2), Herrera Outlaw (major pass) & base MaiMai all had steering improvements implemented and more.
Added adjustments to first-person perspective to all vehicles that needed it. In addition, Nomad vehicles with CrystalDome technology now digitally omit objects obscuring view.

Vehicle Traffic

Visual improvement to traffic movement: turning and suspension.
Panic reaction to danger: traffic now has the ability to drive away in panic from danger. NPC passengers can now die from car crashes.
Reactions to fender benders: vehicles now have a wider range of reactions to being bumped into, and will recover and return to traffic more smoothly.

Gameplay

Balance

Various changes related to the economy, including increased rewards from jobs and Open World activities and decreased prices for vehicles and cyberware.
Rebalanced and improved functionality of clothing mods. Adjusted the amount of modification slots available on clothing items. Categorized the mods to fit only specific clothing items. As a result, all equipped mods were moved back to your inventory. Go to the Inventory screen to re-equip them in accordance with the new rules.
The “Easy” game difficulty is now moderately more challenging.
Introduced 2 new stats replacing Evasion: Mitigation Chance and Mitigation Strength. Mitigation Chance determines how often the player has a chance to reduce incoming damage. Mitigation Strength determines the percentage by which damage is reduced (50% by default).
Components that used to increase Evasion now affect Mitigation. For example: the Reflexes attribute, perks such as Mongoose, Vanishing Point, Human Shield, some clothing mods and cyberware, and more.
Rebalanced Damage Over Time effects, generally reducing primary damage effects such as Burning, Bleeding and Poison.
Reduced chance to disrupt trajectory of smart bullets by Tyger Claws’ Glowing Tattoos ability.
Added a quieter way to escape the NCPD when the heat is on. Instead of fleeing a certain distance from the most recent crime scene, V can opt to hide within the search area, although it will take longer for the police to stop looking.

Cyberware

It’s now possible to sell unused cyberware at a Ripperdoc.
Cooldown duration is now properly described in the tooltip of Blood Pump cyberware.
Made it possible to interrupt the Revealing Position hack by damaging the netrunner or by having immunity from Self-ICE cyberware.
Activating Berserk will now double Stamina instead of granting an infinite amount.
Tranquilizer Rounds in the Projectile Launch System no longer affect non-human NPCs.
Reduced the ricochet number of the Legendary Ballistic Coprocessor to 1, but grants a 50% bonus to ricochet damage.
Trajectory Generator (Kiroshi Optics mod) has been changed to Threat Analysis and now grants a 2% Mitigation Chance. Mitigation grants a chance to reduce incoming damage by the percentage indicated by Mitigation Strength (50% by default).
Increased duration of Optical Camo cyberware for V from 5/10/15 to 10/15/15 per rarity level.
Added the Optical Camo ability for some NPCs.
Even with Optical Camo active, the player will now be visible while grappling an enemy.
Fixed an issue where it wasn’t possible to equip some cyberware mods simultaneously.

Combat

Numerous optimizations to combat AI resulting in an overall improved combat experience.
Numerous fixes and improvements were made to reduce interruptions and smoothen NPC animations in combat, including attack, death, equip weapon, cover, hit reaction, reload, block and dodge animations. You can expect more consistent feeling of impact and crowd control from weapons as well as more spectacular visuals.
Enemies will now correctly reposition to more tactically advantageous positions.
Increased followers’ shooting accuracy.
Reduced explosion damage dealt to the player.
Fixed cases where NPCs from the same group or faction didn’t join combat when they witnessed their comrades fighting.
Fixed an issue whereby NPCs didn’t display a proper hit reaction when hit with a grenade upon entering combat.

Increased visual complexity of enemy combat behavior in low-framerate mode.
Fixed an issue when combat mode was triggered while roaming.
Fixed an issue where the player could be knocked down by a hammer attack despite the weapon not reaching them.

It’s no longer possible to apply the Cyberpsychosis quickhack on cyberpsychos.
Fixed an issue where deactivating a camera with a quickhack wouldn’t interrupt enemy quickhack upload when the camera in question was used as a connection proxy.
Fixed cases where a “hacked” status effect could remain on V permanently, preventing netrunners from hacking V again.
Fixed an issue where, in some cases, the Whistle quickhack didn’t cause NPCs to approach V’s position.

Items & Devices

It’s now possible to turn devices on and off while carrying a body.
Fixed an issue where elevator door animations did sometimes not display properly, causing the player to see beyond world boundaries.
Lowered the health of the opponents in Beat on the Brat, except for the Twins – they can now block and/or evade attacks, so their difficulty is based more on skill.
Woodman now prefers using the same Ajax rifle that he drops as loot. He was also demoted from a boss to a standard enemy.
Fixed NPC behavior during Sasquatch, Oda, Adam Smasher, Royce and Beat on the Brat boss fights.
Fixed an issue where enemy NPCs couldn’t break V’s guard in melee fights.
Fixed clipping in V’s and NPCs’ aerial takedowns.
Spin and kick melee attacks are now allowed only on fast, agile enemy archetypes.
Cold Blood experience will no longer be awarded when dispatching enemies while having no Cold Blood effect active. The amount of Cold Blood experience granted for dispatching enemies increases with the amount of active Cold Blood stacks.

Perks

Rebalanced various perks and moved some of them in the skill tree. As a result, all the Perk points you spent were reset. Go to the Perks screen to reassign your Perk points for free.

Redesigned the following perks:

Bloodswell
Human Shield
Epimorphosis
Cold Blood
Coldest Blood
Cutthroat
Due to the above-mentioned changes in perks, we renamed the Stealth skill tree to Ninjutsu in order to better reflect the perks it contains.
Made the bonuses dynamic for 200% Efficiency, Field Technician and Cutting Edge. They are now applied to already crafted weapons and clothes. Respecing perks removes the bonuses correctly.

Player Mechanics

V is now able to vault/climb/jump/sprint through glass that has been fractured.
Fixed an issue where disposing a body into a crate could move V into walls or out of bounds.

Vehicles

Fixed an issue when summoned vehicles could spawn within each other, resulting in either shattering to pieces or being launched in the air.
Fixed an issue where hijacking a car with a hostile NPC inside caused them to clip through the roof and remain inside the vehicle.
Fixed an issue where vehicles could be frozen in the air after loading a save file. Now they are just regular boring cars that fall down.

Weapons

Reworked throwing knives – knives are not lost after each throw, but automatically return to V’s hands after a set cooldown time (dependent of knife rarity). It’s also possible to pick up thrown knives, resetting the cooldown.
The Stinger Iconic knife now scales properly to V’s level when obtained.
Sped up Smart Gun projectiles on different weapons to the same value as in the Kang Tao G-58 Dian for a better feeling of impact and speed.

The “Stamina Cost Reduction While Attacking” stat on melee weapons works correctly now.
Crunch, Cold Shoulder and Pax weapon mods will increase weapon damage by a percentage value.
The level requirement of melee weapons will now increase with each upgrade. Note: the level of upgraded melee weapons will be adjusted as a result of this change. The equipped items which exceed the level requirement can continue being used but, if unequipped, will have to wait until the required level is reached to be used again.
The DR5 Nova obtained during the Stadium Love quest has stats properly balanced to V’s level.
The Crusher is no longer a viable weapon to use during the shooting competition in the Shoot to Thrill quest.
Added aim assist to the bottles in Cassidy’s challenge in We Gotta Live Together to make it easier to beat with a gamepad.

UI

Various map usability improvements related to resizing icons, adding new tooltips and filters. This includes a dynamic filter based on zoom level as well as a custom filter which can be configured by the player.
Redesigned the “Skip Time” interface. It makes switching between different parts of a day easier and shows predicted time.
Updated graphics for various scopes, as well as increased clarity and new animations.
Improved readability, consistency and visuals in UI panels, notifications and popups.
Added a new notification with the song’s name when it starts playing on the radio.

Extended romances with Panam, Kerry, River and Judy by adding new messages and interactions.
Added interactions in the homes of love interests, including sleeping in bed with a given partner.
It’s now possible to mute the NCPD dispatcher and fixer brief/debrief holocalls. This automatically skips the call and sends you text messages instead. You can customize this feature in Settings > Gameplay > Holocalls. By default, the NCPD dispatcher is muted and fixers are unmuted.
Players are now able to reject non-essential holocalls. There will be a prompt on the screen allowing them to accept or reject a holocall. If they reject the call, they will receive a text message instead.
Improved the holocall system to prevent multiple holocalls from stacking if the first call loads too slowly.
Enhanced Night City nightlife by making music in clubs a bit louder.
Fixed an issue where the distorted visual effect could persist after coming back from Cyberspace.

New fixer gigs will appear gradually in sets as your standing increases, and a fixer will offer you another set of gigs only after the previous set is completed in a given district. Completing all the gigs for a fixer will earn you a special reward (excluding Mr. Hands – sorry, he just doesn’t like you, choom.) To see the progress of your standing with a fixer, hover over their icon on the map screen and check the completed gigs.

Graphics, audio, animation, cinematic design

Improved water appearance and added water interactions. Ripples and splash effects will be produced during various events, like object collisions and from gunfire.
Improved rain visual effects on vehicle windows. Raindrops are no longer afraid of falling.
Added neon rims for bikes. You can switch them on and off with the E key (or by pressing Left Stick on a gamepad).
Improved visuals of the Optical Camo cyberware. If Johnny had this cyberware in 2023, he could’ve just quietly dropped the mini nuke.
Fixed an issue where various subtitles with Johnny’s lines could get stuck on the screen.
Fixed a number of AVs flying through buildings.

Environment and levels

Improved the weather system so that its states change in a more logical order and when certain conditions are met.
Drastically reduced the amount of loot lying around as a part of an effort to allow players more breathing room to experience quest scenes and the world itself.

Stability and performance

HDD Mode has now an auto-detection option. When enabled, it automatically detects which drive the game is installed on, and, if neccessary, boosts data loading and crowd activity at the expense of crowd variety, extra loading screens, and less detail in the streets when driving fast.
Added AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution (FSR) 1.0 algorithm, replacing Contrast Adaptive Sharpening (CAS). On PC it can be enabled in Settings > Graphics > Resolution Scaling. The option is not configurable on consoles.
Multiple fixes and improvements related to stability and optimization.

PC-specific

Added a benchmark mode. You can find it in Settings > Run Benchmark.
Added a “Toggle walking” option when playing with keyboard. It is activated by pressing G during exploration. The key can be rebinded in Settings.
Enabled transparent ray-traced reflections on glossy coating of some cars.
Enabled Variable Rate Shading (VRS). This feature boosts rendering performance and visual quality by varying the shading rate for different regions of the frame. Available only on compatible hardware.
Fixed an issue which blocked Resolution Scaling on AMD graphics cards when Ray Tracing was enabled.
Due to the end of support for graphics drivers, we’ve decided to change the minimum system requirements of NVIDIA graphics cards to GTX 970.
The game won’t necessarily stop functioning on said cards, however, we are no longer testing the game on NVIDIA 700 Series graphics cards.
Due to technical limitations of non-native DirectX 12 implementation on Windows 7, and the end of, or limited, support for graphics drivers, game updates will not be supporting Windows 7 after June 15, 2022. If updated with patches published after that time, the game may stop working on this operating system.

Console-specific

Added Brazilian Portuguese support for digital copies in Portugal (PlayStation codes: CUSA-18278 and CUSA-18279). For further details on language support see: Xbox, PlayStation.
Implemented transferring saves from PS4 to PS5. Instructions can be found here.
Fixed an issue where V’s mouth and hair could be visible in first-person perspective.

Stadia-specific

Increased the scale of Field of View to match other platforms.

Hey chooms, remember that these are just the highlights. There’s a lot more improvements and fixes in this patch, so go and check them out in the game!
