Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.3 Patch Notes

Vehicles

Four new vehicles have been introduced, accompanied by various Side Jobs related to obtaining them:

• Yaiba ARV-Q340 Semimaru

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

An additional side job enables the CrystalCoat™ feature for this vehicle.

• Rayfield Caliburn “Mordred”

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

If the side job is failed, the vehicle can later be purchased through AUTOFIXER.

• Chevillon Legatus 450 Aquila

Available for acquisition via AUTOFIXER.

• Introducing AutoDrive! This advanced autonomous driving feature will guide you to a specified destination (i.e. job target or marked pin on the map). If no destination is set, it will take you on a scenic journey through Night City. Just enter any of your vehicles, ensure you’re on a road, and hold H (PC) / Left Stick (consoles) to initiate. This feature becomes inactive in combat situations or when your vehicle sustains significant damage.
• Implemented Cinematic Camera for AutoDrive. Hold Q (PC) / D-Pad Right (consoles) to engage. Sit back and relish cinematic views of Night City while cruising toward your destination.
• Self-driving Delamain cabs are now available on request! Just open the menu to summon vehicles, then choose “Delamain Cab” from the options to arrange a ride. This feature becomes accessible after completing the job Don’t Lose Your Mind (regardless of the outcome) and receiving communication from Delamain.
• Rayfield’s CrystalCoat™ feature is now usable for vehicles from partner brands, including motorcycles. Moreover, the notorious hacker known as Cosmetic_Troll took advantage of a flaw and devised a cracked version of Rayfield’s CrystalCoat™ technology for lower-end vehicles. Please note, however, that some models do not support this technology, such as heavily modified nomad vehicles and job-specific vehicles.
• Resolved an issue where unique color combinations did not function correctly on the Mizutani Shion MZ1 and MZ2.
• Addressed an issue where unique color schemes could not be properly applied to the Villefort Deleon “Vindicator”.

Original Story: CD Projekt Red will present Patch 2.3 for Cyberpunk 2077 tomorrow (the 16th of July), through a dedicated livestream. It begins at 4pm BST / 5pm CEST.

Enthusiasts of the RPG have been anticipating this update. Patch 2.3 was initially scheduled for release last month, on the 26th of June, but it was postponed to guarantee its quality.

We would wager on the update becoming available this week, as the developer typically briefs these patches shortly before their release. Occasionally, they’ve launched on the same day as the stream — although this Thursday seems more promising, particularly since the game’s also debuting on Mac.

Patch 2.3 is reportedly of a comparable scope to Patch 2.2, which introduced vehicle customization, a plethora of new character appearance options, and significant photo mode enhancements.

Judging by the playful wording of this announcement (how many car puns can one social media post contain?), it appears players can anticipate new vehicle functionalities.

We will, of course, present all of the pertinent information right here on Push Square — so be sure to return tomorrow.
