CD PROJEKT RED has released the full list of fixes and improvements for Cyberpunk 2077’s upcoming major update 1.3.
The list of changes is so extensive that it is simply not possible to single out something specific. In patch 1.3, the developers fixed the vast majority of problems with the story and additional quests, as well as added some additional content, such as Johnny Silverhand’s alternate skin and V’s new jackets.
Separately, I would like to note that in this update, the developers did not add AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution technology, which is so expected by many players.
It should also be mentioned that the release date of patch 1.3 for Cyberpunk 2077 is currently unknown. We will announce the release of the upcoming update separately on the day of its release.
Full list of changes and improvements in patch 1.3:
Please note that the issues listed below did not affect all players.
