Cyberpunk 2077 expansion leaks via latest patch

It seems that some major leaks got through in the latest Cyberpunk 2077 patch. Through datamining, new details about the game's upcoming expansion have been revealed, as well as large portions of the script. 

As previous leaks suggested, the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion will indeed take place in Pacifica, and will open up new parts of the map that were previously inaccessible. In the interest of keeping things as spoiler free as possible, we won't say much more, but the story will star V and a brand new character, and the adventure takes place before the point of no return in the main game.

Unfortunately, the leaked script doesn't seem to include any dialogue from Johnny Silverhand, so the expansion seems to be pretty separated from the main story. If you really want to see all the spoilers, you can find them on Reddit.

While many of us expected the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion this year, CD Projekt Red is targeting a 2023 release date. We also previously thought that two expansions would come to the game, but due to various delays, we may end up only getting the one expansion. After that, CD Projekt Red will shift resources around to new projects, including future Cyberpunk games and The Witcher 4.

KitGuru Says: Given that the expansion is likely at least another full year away, this leak coming so early is very unfortunate.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
