CD Projekt RED has recently announced that Cyberpunk 2077 patch 2.01 will finally be available tomorrow.
The promised patch 2.01 for Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty will finally be available for download tomorrow, October 5, 2023. Community Director Marcin Momot was the one to confirm the release date of the new update. It is expected to be released later in the afternoon in the UK and Europe, so it will be available in the morning in the US.
The reason that patch 2.01 is highly anticipated especially for PS5 users is due to its fix of an issue that corrupts save files that happens specially on the PS5 version. With this update, that nasty bug will finally be gone for good.
Here are the rest of the changes coming to the game with patch 2.01. Note that these are a portion of the full patch notes that will be released after release:
- The distorted effect caused by selecting a specific dialogue option when talking to Johnny at the end of Automatic Love will no longer persist on the screen.
- V will no longer die in The Heist by falling through the elevator when riding to the 42nd floor with low FPS.
- Fixed an issue where the UI could show controller inputs when playing with keyboard and mouse.
- Made it possible to properly switch to arms cyberware by cycling through weapons.
- Gig: Breaking News will be properly triggered after approaching the quest area.
- Vehicle radio volume will be adjusted so it’s not too quiet when compared to other sounds in the game.
- Addressed the issue of corrupted saves on PlayStation by increasing the maximum save file size limit. Note: this won’t fix the saves corrupted before the update. If you’re experiencing the issue, keep a working save (e.g. resave it as manual save) till 2.01 arrives.
- Performance improvements for both PC and consoles, especially in the Dogtown area.
