Patch 2.31: Key Fixes and Changes

Update 2.31, released in September 2025, primarily acts as a fixer patch for issues from the July 2.3 update, including vehicle handling improvements and photo mode enhancements for better screenshots.

Significant changes include a big visual overhaul, quest bug fixes, and stealth mechanics tweaks, though some mods broke in the process. CDPR apologized for 2.3 delays to ensure quality.

Players report smoother experiences on PC and consoles, with no stuttering issues when using auto graphics presets, making it ideal for replays.

Fifth Anniversary: No Update Confirmed

December 10, 2025, marks five years since Cyberpunk 2077's launch. CD Projekt Red's Marcin Momot clarified no update is planned, tempering hype from cryptic teases and ongoing patches.

Speculation persists for quality-of-life improvements or cross-platform mod support, but the studio prioritizes Cyberpunk 2 (Project Orion) and The Witcher 4. Virtuos aids updates amid these projects.

Community excitement remains high, with forums noting NCPD spawn issues in 2.3, now potentially addressed.

Edgerunners 2 and Beyond

Rumors swirl around Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2, announced for late 2025 or Q1 2026, potentially boosting player counts like the original anime via a tie-in update.

Night City thrives with steady Steam peaks, new ARG clues in patches (not leading to DLC), and Mike Pondsmith's city reveals for sequels. The Ultimate Edition deal enhances accessibility.

2025 reaffirms Cyberpunk 2077's legacy: from disaster to must-play, with 2.3x patches proving CDPR's commitment.
