Cyberpunk 2077 Patches

There's scope for even more Cyberpunk 2077 updates, based on what developer CD Projekt Red revealed during its latest livestream.

The open world RPG just got a brand new update — Patch 2.2 — despite the Polish company stating that it was basically done supporting the now four-year-old title.

Previously, CDPR had said that smaller improvements and additions might happen depending on how much development time is needed. Obviously, the teams that once worked on 2077 and its Phantom Liberty expansion have long since moved on to other projects, like the next The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077's sequel.

So how did Patch 2.2 happen? Well, this is where it gets interesting. CDPR actually outsourced this update to a separate developer called Virtuos.

Virtuos is a massive company made up of studios all over the world, and typically supports developers that are working on big budget games.

Virtuos producer Pauline Debroux was part of the aforementioned livestream, and she explained that her teams work on things like additional quests, levels, DLCs, art assets, and more.

Basically, Virtuos provided the manpower behind this new update, with CDPR overseeing its creation — and that's already got people wondering whether this is just the start of a patch-centric partnership.

For what it's worth, CDPR didn't specify if this is a one-off occurrence, or whether there are any plans for more updates. But again, it's an interesting thing to bring up and unpack on a public broadcast.
