Q: Should you start a new save in Cyberpunk 2077 before the Phantom Liberty DLC releases?

A: Yes, it is recommended to start a new save to get accustomed to the changes that come with Update 2.0. CD Projekt Red also suggests starting a new playthrough with the release of Phantom Liberty, even if you don’t plan on playing the new DLC.

Q: Is it necessary to buy the Phantom Liberty DLC to experience the changes from Update 2.0?

A: No, you can experience the gameplay changes brought by Update 2.0 without purchasing the Phantom Liberty DLC. This allows you to see if you like the adjustments even if you don't plan on playing the new content featuring Idris Elba.

Q: What are some of the significant changes made in the Update 2.0 for Cyberpunk 2077?

A: Update 2.0 introduces new skill trees with different abilities and a revised cyberware system that provides armor. Healing items and grenades have become rechargeable, stamina doesn’t drain outside of combat, allowing indefinite sprinting, and the NCPD will chase you regardless of whether you’re on foot or in a vehicle. Additionally, vehicle combat has been enhanced through new skills, and the max level cap has been increased from Level 50 to Level 60.
