CD Projekt lied to us, and that’s actually good news. We thought Cyberpunk 2077 was abandoned, but it wasn’t. CD Projekt RED has just released update 2.31 at a time when everyone believed there would be no more patches.

Few games have managed such a redemption arc as Cyberpunk 2077. Although sales were strong, the launch didn’t reflect the game it eventually became, thanks to CD Projekt’s relentless updates and fixes. Over the years, Night City has grown through hotfixes, extra content, new patches, and the critically acclaimed Phantom Liberty expansion. Months ago, CD Projekt declared that support for the game had ended, but clearly that wasn’t true.

Just a few months back, update 2.3 delivered a host of improvements welcomed by players. Many assumed it would be the last, but update 2.31 has now arrived, fine-tuning two heavily used features. AutoDrive, the autopilot introduced in the last patch, now navigates more smoothly, overtakes blocked traffic, and ignores stoplights. Free-roam mode has been refined for reliability and better adherence to traffic rules. Meanwhile, Photo Mode has received long-awaited tweaks: character poses now work across genders, NPC collision can be disabled, letting players freely position characters, and several quest and open-world glitches—such as broken journal entries, Delamain messages, and crashes—have been fixed.

There’s also a new toggle to disable vignetting, plus an extensive list of fixes ranging from vehicle issues to PC- and Mac-specific bugs, such as DLSS + Reflex pink screens, enabling Path Tracing in some scenarios, and white screen crashes. These quality-of-life upgrades make the game more stable than ever. Could this really be the last patch? Many fans believe we’ll see at least one more update by the game’s fifth anniversary later this year.

Other Cyberpunk Projects

Meanwhile, CD Projekt RED is already hard at work on the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077, with around 80 developers in pre-production. Netflix and Studio Trigger are moving forward with season two of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, and the live-action Cyberpunk 2077 movie is also slowly taking shape, though its release is still far off.
