Despite the ongoing production of Phantom Liberty, CD Projekt RED still has a team working on the main game. Now there is another patch.
Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, which is due to be released on September 26th, should certainly be the focus of CD Projekt RED at the moment. But that doesn’t mean that the software tinkerers are lazy about the main game.
The studio just announced that with update 1.63 another patch for the game will be delivered today, on all platforms.
Don’t expect any big surprises though, they’re more likely to come with update 1.70 that comes with Phantom Liberty. Instead, the patch includes a slew of quest and open-world fixes, some UI and technical issues, and a bug that impacted performance on the Xbox Series during extended play. Furthermore, the maximum number of saves on the Xbox will be adjusted.
Here are the complete patch notes in detail:
