The upcoming update for Cyberpunk 2077 will coincide with the release of the Ultimate Edition on Mac, supporting Apple Silicon and featuring advanced graphics, although it requires at least 16GB of RAM, which excludes some base M1 and M2 Macs.

This update marks a significant step in CD Projekt Red's five-year effort to recover from the game's troubled 2020 launch, which was plagued by bugs and technical issues.

Patch 1.2, considered a B-Tier update, aims to rebuild trust with players through quality-of-life improvements, even though it doesn't deliver major changes.

Community speculation suggests that Patch 2.3 may introduce chained side quests, new vehicle features—including an autopilot similar to The Witcher 3—and possibly new hairstyles and romance options, though no extensive new content like paid DLC is expected.

Despite the recent delay of Patch 2.3, CD Projekt Red's community remains optimistic, thanks to the company's restored goodwill after previous issues.

Players are eager for the patch's release, with many suggesting starting a new playthrough to fully enjoy upcoming content and cosmetic updates.

Nearly five years after its initial troubled launch, Cyberpunk 2077 has seen renewed interest, especially following its recent release on the Nintendo Switch 2, which could benefit from the delay to optimize performance.

Following Patch 2.3, CD Projekt Red is expected to focus on minor bug fixes rather than new content, with some fans hoping for future projects like The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2.

Fans are awaiting the official release date of Patch 2.3, which may be announced during a live stream, with expectations it could be released on the same day or shortly after.

Promotional content hints at a focus on vehicles, with potential new automotive features, including an autopilot system, and playful language suggesting new vehicle-related updates.

Set in a dystopian future, players assume the role of V, a mercenary navigating Night City, with ongoing development efforts to enhance the game's narrative and gameplay experience.

While Patch 2.3 is expected to be the final major update, discussions about future projects like The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2 continue to excite the community, with some considering New Game Plus as a fitting conclusion for Cyberpunk 2077.
