Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.5: Edgerunners 2 Content [Update 2026]

CD Projekt Red has officially confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077 is receiving another major patch titled Update 2.5, delivering brand-new tie-in content for the upcoming anime project alongside critical combat refinements, despite studio executives declaring post-launch active development finished back in 2024. According to verified reporting from VGC, internal production pipelines at CD Projekt Red have pivoted back toward Night City following immense audience demand and ongoing multimedia expansions. While resources remain primarily invested in The Witcher 4 codenamed Polaris and the Cyberpunk sequel Project Orion, a dedicated secondary team is handling version 2.5. The impending patch integrates fresh narrative contracts connected to Studio Trigger's upcoming follow-up to Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, alongside exclusive cyberware implants and exotic weaponry. Industry analysts note this unexpected lifecycle extension contrasts sharply with other major studio retrenchments, such as when [Mass Effect 5 Cancelled: EA Closes BioWare Studio [Confirmed]](/news/mass-effect-ea-closes-bioware) disrupted RPG fans earlier this cycle. VGC reports that CD Projekt Red aims to maximize community engagement on current-gen consoles and PC, revitalizing high-end save files and onboarding newcomers who skipped Night City's initial Phantom Liberty era.
