Some content creators supposedly got an early look at the patch notes and posted about it online. Here are some highlights from this video (dunno how reliable he is):

  • Two new quests, one Edgerunners 2 related.
  • Dual wielding for power pistols and revolvers with new Cool tree perks just for that.
  • Ability to customise the look of hand cyberwear.
  • New clothing.
  • More hairstyles previously locked to NPCs (some body-type locked).
  • New trading card game _ frames for photo mode.
  • Cross-platform mod support (PC, Mac, Playstation 5 + Pro, Xbox Series X|S)
    • Seems to be similar to Bethesda's Creation Club, with mods available to browse and download from in-game menu.
    • Modded saves will be marked with a dedicated icon, will lock the ability to earn achievements on this save.
  • FOV slider for consoles.
  • Saves grouped by playthrough.
  • More stash filters.
  • DLSS 4.5 support for PC.

    I’m happy that we got another update, especially with newly voiced gigs! Gives me hope of a songs of the past style expansion in the future to help bridge the gap between 2077 and Orion

    Seems like a safe bet considering CDPR's approach over the last few years - it builds good will among existing customers and brings interest to both the old and upcoming projects. This might be their standard procedure going forward since it's working quite well for them (even Edgerunners 2 + patch 2.5 got Cyberpunk to the highest concurrent player numbers since Phantom Liberty).

    Regardless of how things go, I'll jumping on the hopium as well. I need more Cyberpunk.

    I’m pretty hopeful for a second expansion at the rate things are going. I mean fully voiced quests being added that aren’t previously scrapped content or part of the expansion? That seems like a pretty good sign since that’s no small amount of work to be put in for nothing.

    Even the last few patches have been pretty big in comparison to the 1.X ones. 2.1 brought the NCART system and portable radio. 2.2 with a huge customization overhaul. 2.3 with autodrive and several brand new car models. Now with 2.5 fully voiced quests and an entire new play style. Feels like it has to be building towards something bigger at this point.

    I expected it to be cosmetic stuff to promote the new season but it sounds like more than that. CDPR has such a crazy long development tail on their games
