Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Expansion Coming Next Year

CD Projekt Red has unveiled the first Cyberpunk 2077 expansion coming for the upcoming title. The expansion is titled Phantom Liberty and is set to release next year. The expansion was officially revealed during the latest Night City Wire live stream and detailed the expansion which will expand on V’s story in the game which sees him taking the role of an agent of sorts for the United States of America. Even better, Keanu Reeves‘ Johnny Silverhand will also be returning.

The expansion trailer gave fans just a taste of what’s to come with the trailer being narrated by Johnny Silverhand and possibly POTUS himself. The expansion will possibly also be featuring new locations and weapons but confirmation by CD Projekt Red is still pending. CDPR shared during the stream:

“It’s a new kind of style of plot” for the team in terms of Phantom Liberty’s narrative, and that it will feature a new cast of characters (joining V, of course). As for where it takes place, the team didn’t specify, but it did say it will primarily unfold in one district of Night City.”

CDPR also touched on the 1.6 update coming which is set to overhaul Cyberpunk 2077‘s police system and vehicle combat mechanics. The update also will add a new gameplay loop for melee combat with new actions being added to the perk tree. The update will also include a jacket and weapon that will be inspired by Cyberpunk: Edgerunners along with new playable arcade cabinets.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is set to arrive in 2023. Check out the trailer below:
