Cyberpunk 2077 gets an Edgerunners 2 prequel quest

Cyberpunk 2077's Update 2.5 brings in-game mod browsing to consoles and adds a prequel quest tied to Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. It is scheduled to launch on October 22, 2026.

Mods without leaving the game

The headline feature is Cross-Platform Mod Support, built with mod.io. Players browse and install player-created mods straight from the in-game menu on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X|S. What arrives at launch is a selection of mods, and more are promised over time.

CD Projekt Red says the Switch 2 version may arrive later than the other platforms.

The Edgerunners tie-in and new toys

The new side quest, Clampdown, takes place before the events of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. It unlocks once you finish The Heist and two gigs for Wakako, then wait for her message, so a fresh save will not see it right away. The reward is a five-piece gear set based on King. A new radio station, HKGN 102.0 FM, plays tracks from the anime.

Combat gets a real change. The Double Trouble perk in the Cool tree, backed by four auxiliary perks, lets V dual-wield Power-category pistols and revolvers, and Photo Mode gets matching poses.

Hand cyberware can now be restyled at five Glamdocs, each with its own shop, intro scene and catalog of skins in custom colors. V also gains new outfit sets and some hairstyles that were NPC-only until now, though a few are tied to body type. Four TWINTONE skins for the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech come through Twitch Drops.

For lore fans, a guided tour narrated by Richard Night opens after The Heist and level 15 Street Cred, with a Night City mystery underneath. Twelve new Minor Arcana Tarot Cards extend Fool on the Hill: scanning any one of them starts the quest, and collecting them all earns a reward.

Under the hood

Console versions get field-of-view settings, DLSS 4.5 support is coming, and the Mac version gets some requested optimizations.
