Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.3 has just dropped for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S and it’s possibly one of the most chilled-out, sci-fi-packed updates yet.
Table of Contents
From cruising through Night City in self-driving cars to unlocking new rides and taking even more stunning Photo Mode shots, here’s everything you need to know.
TRAVEL IN STYLE
AutoDrive™ is here, and it’s brilliant. Hop into any of your owned vehicles, pick a destination or don’t and let the car take you for a ride.
If you’re heading to a mission or just vibing around the city, you can now enjoy the sights without touching the wheel.
Feeling a bit extra? Call in a self-driving Delamain cab and arrive like a proper Afterlife legend. This premium service unlocks after finishing Don’t Lose Your Mind, no matter how it ends.
NEW WHEELS, NEW JOBS
Update 2.3 adds four new vehicles to your collection — including the sleek Yaiba Semimaru, the menacing Rayfield Caliburn Mordred, and the snappy Chevillon Legatus 450 Aquila.
Some are unlocked via new side jobs, so there’s fresh merc work waiting. Others can be picked up via AUTOFIXER if you’re short on patience.
PAINT YOUR RIDE
More rides now support Rayfield’s CrystalCoat™ paint tech, including bikes. Even better, a netrunner’s gone rogue and cracked the system, letting nearly all vehicles get a fresh coat of custom paint.
Not every vehicle supports it though, while all modded nomad rides and mission-specific cars are out of luck.
PREEM PHOTO MODE UPGRADES
Photo Mode’s had a glow-up. With 27 new NPCs, alternative outfits, extra poses, and more control over head and eye movement, you’re now able to capture Night City your way. Want the perfect golden hour lighting? You can now cycle between day and night on the spot.
There’s also a new Color Balance tab for custom filters, tons of new stickers and frames, and better Depth of Field tools. Basically, get ready to turn your screenshots into proper Night City postcards.
NEW PLATFORM: CYBERPUNK ON MAC
Big news for Mac users: Cyberpunk 2077 is now playable on Apple silicon! You can grab it from the Mac App Store or log in via GOG, Steam, or Epic if you already own it.
Just double-check your machine meets the official specs before diving in.
