Cyberpunk 2077 update version 2.3 patch notes

Vehicles

Added 4 new vehicles, including several Side Jobs tied to acquiring them:

• Yaiba ARV-Q340 Semimaru

Reward from a new side job (to unlock, complete The Hunt and The Beast In Me).

An additional side job unlocks the CrystalCoat feature for it.

• Rayfield Caliburn “Mordred”

Reward from a new side job (to unlock, complete The Beast in Me: Badlands, The Beast in Me: Santo Domingo, Transmission, and Search and Destroy).

• Yaiba ASM-R250 Muramasa

Reward from a new side job (to unlock, purchase 1 Yaiba vehicle, purchase at least 3 vehicles through AUTOFIXER, and complete Reported Crime: You Play with Fire…).

If you fail the side job, the vehicle can later be purchased through AUTOFIXER.

• Chevillon Legatus 450 Aquila

Available for purchase on AUTOFIXER.

• Introducing AutoDrive! This cutting-edge, autonomous driving feature will take you to your chosen destination (i.e. job objective or placed pin on the map). If you have no set destination, it will take you on a leisurely ride through the streets of Night City. Simply hop in any of your vehicles, make sure you’re on a road, and hold Left Stick (consoles) to activate. This feature is disabled when you enter combat or when your vehicle is heavily damaged.
• Implemented Cinematic Camera for AutoDrive. Hold D-Pad Right (consoles) to activate. Sit back and enjoy cinematic views of Night City as you cruise toward your destination.
• Self-driving Delamain cabs are now available on demand! Simply open the menu to call vehicles, then select “Delamain Cab” from the list to request a ride. This feature unlocks after completing the job Don’t Lose Your Mind (regardless of outcome) and receiving a message from Delamain.
• Rayfield’s CrystalCoat™ is now available for vehicles from partner brands, including motorcycles. Additionally, the infamous hacker known as Cosmetic_Troll exploited a vulnerability and created a cracked version of Rayfield’s CrystalCoat™ technology for lower-end vehicles. Please note, however, that some models do not support the technology, such as heavily modded nomad vehicles and job-related vehicles.
• Fixed an issue where unique color schemes did not work properly on the Mizutani Shion MZ1 and MZ2.
• Fixed an issue where unique color scheme could not be applied properly to the Villefort Deleon “Vindicator”.

Photo Mode

• Added 27 new NPCs that can be spawned in Photo Mode, including Rita Wheeler, the Cassel twins, fixers, Dum Dum, the iguana, Brendan, and more.
• You can now switch between alternative outfits for NPCs spawned in Photo Mode.
• You can now switch between V’s saved Wardrobe outfits in Photo Mode.
• Added a confirmation pop-up when exiting Photo Mode to prevent accidental exits after setting up the perfect shot.
• Added more customization options to the Look-At Camera feature, including an option for only the character’s eyes to turn toward the camera instead of their entire body.
• Added multiple new stickers and frames, including iconic quotes and stylish overlays that let you turn your screenshots into Night City postcards – perfect for sharing memories from the City of Dreams.
• Improved Depth of Field and moved it to the Camera tab.
• Added a new Color Balance tab, allowing you to create your own custom filters.

Quality of Life & Accessibility

• The game will now detect if the player is using inverted mouse button settings and automatically adjusts in-game button prompts accordingly.
• Added an option to toggle aiming down sights in Settings → Controls.

Jobs & Open World

• Cyberpsycho Sighting: Bloody Ritual – the “Crack the ritualist’s shard” objective now properly disappears from the Journal after completing the objective.
• Sex on Wheels – now properly appears in the Journal after receiving the message from Jake Estevez.
• Shot by Both Sides – fixed an issue where selecting a specific dialogue option in the conversation with Bree created a nameless, iconless item in the player’s Inventory.
• Shot by Both Sides – fixed an issue where the button to go to the lower level didn’t appear on the elevator panel.

Gameplay

• Fixed an issue where, when using a controller in Trauma Drama, the controllable character would default to shooting upwards instead of forward.
• Players can now drop more Cyberware Capacity Shards if some within the intended drop limit were previously missed.
• Fixed an issue causing automatic weapons to fire slower than intended.
• Fixed an issue where the Official BARGHEST Tac Vest didn’t drop from the scripted Airdrop as intended.
• The level 60 Engineer perk no longer activates the EMP blast outside of combat or after entering a vehicle.
• Added an option to replay the gameplay tutorial at any time via Settings → Controls.

Miscellaneous

• Added an option to tell Johnny to go away after you look at him for a short while when he appears in the passenger seat. He takes the hint and disappears as a passenger for a couple days.
• Fixed an issue where the sound of V’s Radioport could be randomly interrupted by the Radioports of nearby NPCs.
• Fixed an issue where History by Gazelle Twin and Trash Generation played too loudly compared to other songs on the radio.
• Improved the HDR Setting screen: fixed the HDR calibration preview so it correctly reflects the chosen settings, and clarified the description of the “Tone-Mapping Midpoint” setting.
• Updated the End User Licence Agreement. You will be asked to accept it again when you load the game after updating.
• Fixed several visual issues with missing, clipping, or floating textures.
• Fixed several localization issues in various languages.
