Cyberpunk 2077’s update for Edgerunners 2 brings mods to PS5, Switch 2, and Xbox

Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a big new 2.5 update that, among other features, brings cross-platform mod support to consoles and content inspired by the new season of the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime on Netflix. There’s a lot to unpack in the full patch notes. The Edgerunners-specific content includes a new side quest, a gear set based on the character Weak Kingsley, and a new radio station that plays Cyberpunk: Edgerunners music. [Media: https://bsky.app/profile/mod.io/post/3myflrwwec223] Even if you haven’t seen the show, the update also adds a Double Trouble perk option that allows dual-wielding of pistols and revolvers, plus a Richard Night-guided tour of the city side quest, and access to a selection of player-created mods via the in-game menu. > Added Cross-Platform Mod Support, powered by mod.io, a first step into cross-platform modding that allows you to easily browse and install a selection of player-created mods directly from the in-game menu. More mods will become available over time. The feature is available on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The new mod support extends to the currently supported consoles too, and CDPR says that more mods will become available over time. The notes don’t say which mods will be available at first, but it could extend the lifespan of a game that’s already nearly six years clear of its initially-troubled launch, even without the missing multiplayer mode. Other tweaks include grouped saves that are sorted by playthrough, DLSS 4.5 support and glasses-free 3D effects, and an FOV slider for console players who want to see more (or less). The update launches on October 22nd on PC, Mac, PS5, and Xbox Series X / S, while it’s coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and the Mac App Store in the “days to follow,” according to CD Projekt Red’s patch notes.
