Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.5 Update Brings Console Modding and Edgerunners‑Inspired Content

CD Projekt Red has rolled out a major 2.5 patch for Cyberpunk 2077 that adds cross‑platform mod support for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series consoles and the upcoming Switch 2, while also introducing new material tied to the Netflix series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.

The modding capability, long limited to PC, will now let console players download and activate user‑created alterations directly from the game’s interface. By integrating the same mod‑distribution framework used on PC, the studio aims to give console users a comparable level of customization without the need for external tools.

Support is confirmed for the current generation of Sony and Microsoft hardware, and the patch includes a placeholder for the next‑generation Nintendo Switch model that is slated for release later this year. Players will be able to browse curated selections of mods—ranging from visual shaders to gameplay tweaks—through an in‑game browser that pulls from the same repositories that power the PC version.

In addition to the technical upgrades, the update delivers a suite of items and missions inspired by the second season of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. New character skins, vehicle liveries and narrative side quests echo the aesthetic and story beats of the anime, giving fans a way to see the show’s influence reflected within Night City.

The patch arrives amid CD Projekt Red’s broader post‑launch strategy, which has focused on stabilizing the base game and expanding its live‑service elements. Earlier updates addressed performance issues and added quality‑of‑life improvements; this release marks the first time the studio has extended community‑driven content to consoles on a large scale.

Analysts note that bringing mod support to consoles could boost the game’s longevity and attract new players who were previously hesitant about a PC‑centric ecosystem. The company has not detailed a timeline for additional console‑specific features, but the inclusion of Edgerunners‑related assets suggests a continued effort to align the game with the franchise’s expanding media presence.
