Cyberpunk 2077 will be getting some free DLC in early 2021, as developer / publisher CD Projekt Red looks to get over its disastrous release.
Bugs, poor console performance, offered and later declined refunds, and even a class action lawsuit have taken the shine off Cyberpunk 2077’s solid sales performance, but a new DLC page on the game’s official site shows that CDPR is moving forward with your additional content plans. .
Details are scant: “Free DLC begins arriving in Night City in early 2021” is the only message on the page, plus a call to stay tuned. Still, it confirms the plans sparked in a hidden message within the Cyberpunk 2077 launch trailer: that the game would follow a DLC pattern similar to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, with a mix of free and premium DLC packs. The first of this free content will be released early next year, according to the message.
The Witcher 3’s free DLC came in small but varied installments, such as armor sets, new animations, and alternate character skins, with some small-scale missions included. So if Cyberpunk 2077 follows this template, you can probably expect more of the same. , with larger story-based expansions to come later.
That’s all very well, although any DLC will need to share development time with a number of major patches that are planned to fix the game’s myriad of bugs and performance issues. One of them, version 1.06, was released last week and included various fixes for memory glitches, disappearing characters, and the strange 8MB save file size limit that wiped out the progress of the game’s most dedicated players.
Two more of these big patches are scheduled for January and February, respectively.
