A new trailer is available for CD Projekt RED’s Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, showcasing all the accolades the expansion has earned. As the first and only paid expansion for the first-person shooter/RPG, it’s received extensive acclaim from critics – check out what they think below.

Despite the new DLC including a phenomenal storyline and lots of new content for , it sadly did not include any romance options among its newly introduced NPCs. The spy-thriller DLC has many hours worth of exciting missions to do, new weapons and perks to play around with, and lots of new characters with engaging backstories in both the main DLC campaign and the many side gigs. 's Dogtown District is home to some colorful characters, and the major people that V interacts with for the story have a depth to their personalities that would be fun to be able to explore even more.

In Cyberpunk 2077, there are few problems that can’t be solved with either a bullet, a blade, or a colorfully worded variation of “F you.” In Phantom Liberty, the first and only expansion for the game, developer CD Projekt Red throws a curveball at the player in the form of an optional final mission that channels inspiration from one of the greatest survival-horror games of the eighth console generation.

has always offered some special, one-of-a-kind weapons called Iconic weapons with unique names and powerful extra abilities, and the new DLC has added even more for V to enjoy collecting. Completing many of the story missions will lead V to some of the best Iconics, but there are many more to be found. Entering Dogtown for the new spy-thriller storyline of the DLC means not only are there a lot of new shady individuals to loot and a black market to explore, but there are also airdrops that often have some valuable rewards.

Phantom Liberty and Update 2.0 might have made a lot of improvements to Cyberpunk 2077 but one new bug has introduced a haunted police car to Night City.

CD Projekt Red really wants Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty players to know that its RPG is back and better than ever - and it's used Idris Elba to get the message across. 

Cyberpunk 2077’s massive expansion, Phantom Liberty, has arrived, and fans are loving the chance to check out the coveted Dogtown, and play through their tense spy-thriller. There’s been a lot of praise thrown around as fans return to the game following its original launch in December 2020, and some fans have discovered that they can purchase the expansion but lock themselves out of it.

The story of 's DLC comes down to one pivotal choice: side with Solomon Reed, or Song «Songbird» So Mi? Reed is a Federal Intelligence Agency officer, and Songbird is a Netrunner who serves as President Myers' aide. When the President's helicopter takes a dive in Dogtown, and the President herself is trapped, both of these characters call on the mercenary V for help. However, they have a history, and Reed is convinced that letting Songbird fly is more trouble than it's worth. Reed believes that Songbird's work behind the Blackwall, a defense measure against rogue AI, is dangerous. And he's got the President on his side.

Cyberpunk 2077 may have just received Update 2.0 and its Phantom Liberty expansion but developer CD Projekt has promised Patch 2.01 is "coming soon" with performance improvements in Dogtown and a fix for corrupted save data on PlayStation 5.

Each possible ending of 's DLC can affect what happens next in the base game. The DLC's plot revolves around V's eternal search for a cure to their neurovirus. At the beginning of, they learn that the New United States government might have a remedy, and they can gain access to it if they'll only play government agent. Their first assignment: NUSA President Rosalind Myers' spaceplane has crash-landed, with the wreckage straddling the two rival sides of Dogtown. V will need to rescue the President, and more importantly, find out who was responsible for the crash.

Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.0 update arrived last week alongside new (and truly excellent) expansion Phantom Liberty, bringing a host of tweaks and improvements in an impressive climax to the originally technically-troubled and artistically-questionable game’s quite staggering redemption arc.

It sees V traveling to Dogtown, where NUSA president Rosalind Myers’s shuttle has crashed. They run into NUSA sleeper agent Solomon Reed and the mysterious Songbird, with the plot taking inspiration from spy thrillers.
