More Cyberpunk 2077 Updates Could Be Coming as CDPR Enlists Outside Help for Patch 2.2

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours lost (and found) in the labyrinthine worlds of RPGs, I must admit I was initially taken aback by the latest turn of events regarding Cyberpunk 2077. The game, which I’ve spent more waking hours in than my actual apartment, has seen yet another update – Patch 2.2 – despite CD Projekt Red seemingly wrapping up their support for the title.

There’s still room for additional updates on Cyberpunk 2077, as suggested by the information shared by developer CD Projekt Red in their recent live broadcast.

It appears that the open-world RPG has received an unexpected update, version 2.2, despite the developer from Poland indicating earlier that they were essentially finished providing support for this game, which is already four years old.

Earlier, CDPR mentioned potential smaller enhancements and updates could be made depending on available development time. Notably, teams that were previously engaged with Cyberpunk 2077 and its Phantom Liberty expansion have since shifted their focus to other projects such as the next Witcher series and a potential sequel for Cyberpunk 2077.

Ah, let me explain the backstory behind Patch 2.2. Intriguingly, Cyberpunk 2077’s developers, CDPR, handed over the responsibility for this update to another studio named Virtuos.

Virtuos is a global conglomerate of studios, generally backing game creators who are involved in large-scale productions.

In the livestream mentioned earlier, talented producer Pauline Debroux shared insights about her team’s responsibilities. They handle tasks such as creating new quests, developing levels, producing downloadable content, and working on various art assets, among other things.

Essentially, Virtuos handled the labor for this recent update, while CDPR supervised its development. This collaboration has sparked speculation among users about whether it could mark the beginning of a partnership focused on updates.

As far as I can tell, CDPR hasn’t clarified yet whether this event is a unique instance or if they have future updates planned. Nonetheless, it’s intriguing to discuss and analyze further in a public forum.
