The countdown to the release of Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.0 Update is officially on, as plenty of eyes continue to be fixated on CD PROJEKT RED to see how it delivers on its long-awaited slate of releases this September.
Launching nearly a full week before the game’s upcoming Phantom Liberty expansion, Update 2.0 will seemingly lay the groundwork for all the new content with a massive list of touch-ups and overhauls that are intended to take CD PROJEKT RED’s action RPG to a whole new level.
Regardless of whether or not players are planning to pick up Phantom Liberty upon its release, Update 2.0 will be available for free to all those who have access to Cyberpunk 2077 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Here’s the countdown to when Update 2.0 is expected to drop.
Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 release date and time
As announced during CD PROJEKT RED’s Night City Wire: Phantom Liberty Special show, Update 2.0 for Cyberpunk 2077 is set to release on Sept. 21. While a specific time for the update’s release hasn’t been confirmed, CD PROJEKT RED’s community manager Lilayah confirmed on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the update will go live “close to the end” of the Cyberpunk 2077 stream taking place on Sept. 21 at 10am CT / 8am PT / 11am ET / 4pm BST (or Sept. 22 at 1am AEST)
We expect this stream will last between 40 minutes and an hour, so it’s likely the update will go live around an hour after the stream’s start time, which would mean update 2.0 would go live on Sept. 21 at 11am CT / 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm BST (or Sept. 22 at 2am AEST).
The countdown above tells you exactly how many days, hours, minutes, and seconds you have to wait until that expected release time. There’s not long left to wait now.
