Cyberpunk 2077 receives a major update on PS5 with patch 2.5, introducing mods and new quests, closely tied to its anime series Edgerunners.
Today marks a notable day for Cyberpunk 2077 on PS5 as Patch 2.5 goes live, bringing a wave of new features and content updates to players. Highlighting the update is the introduction of over 50 user-created mods now available directly on console. Mimicking the mod-friendly stance seen with The Witcher 3 Remastered, the process is straightforward – a new ‘Mods’ option on the main menu allows all sorts of enhancements with just a click. PushSquare covers the initial selection aimed at expanding quests, romances, and more, offering a fresh wave of interaction and replayability.
Furthermore, CD Projekt Red’s latest patch integrates content closely tied with the second season of the Edgerunners anime series. Some of the key additions showcased by the team include cyberware customization and a new dual-wielding combat style. This update is planned to be fully revealed through a livestream today, but leaks already suggest new questlines such as “Clampdown” and a mystery side quest will be included.

Patch and System Updates
Outside of Cyberpunk 2077, Dawnwalker on PS5 also sees a substantial patch today. Developer Rebel Wolves have rolled out version 1.1, a hefty 13GB update containing over 1,100 improvements. While most enhancements were previewed last week, notable changes include a new difficulty mode and the addition of animal petting, which help refine gameplay across the board. Details can be found on PushSquare.
On a broader scale, Sony has dispatched a new PS5 system software update – the second one this month. Update 26.07-14.20.00 subtly tweaks the system’s usability, though specifics remain sparse. Though described as minimalistic, these updates typically slip in unannounced changes, prompting observation by the PlayStation community. More on this system update can be found on PlayStation Lifestyle.
Industry Rumblings
In other industry news, two of EA’s shooter giants, Respawn and DICE, are reportedly collaborating on Star Wars Battlefront 3. While the development is not confirmed by EA, reports suggest a combined effort from these acclaimed studios. Stay updated with details through PushSquare.
Lastly, speculation around the next generation of consoles continues as claims surface regarding the PS6’s manufacturing costs. According to hardware source KeplerL2, Sony’s forthcoming console might cost significantly less to produce than Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox Helix. While these figures are speculative, they hint at a potential pricing strategy advantage for Sony. For further insights, see PushSquare.
