The first major bit of DLC for Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> \u2014 unless you count a buttload of patches \u2014 is due out in 2023 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. Phantom Liberty<\/em> is a spy thriller, and it introduces a new character, FIA agent Solomon Reed, who’s played by Idris Elba.

Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> came out in December 2020 and was immediately Lambasted as a glitchy, unpolished mess by many players and reviewers. CD Projekt Red released a series of fixes for the game and, over time, it’s stabilized and players have found the fun that was hiding there all along.<\/p>\n

Elba joins fellow mainstream actor Keanu Reeves in the Cyberpunk universe, and this won’t be the last we’ll hear of the franchise. There’s a fabulous Netflix anime based on the game and CD Projekt Red is already building a full-on sequel, codenamed “Orion.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
