cyberpunk 2077

With CD Projekt RED’s Cyberpunk 2077 receiving its much-anticipated update 1.5 last month, it seems the studio is looking to keep the momentum going as it looks to fix the many issues the game still has and has had since launch. Recently, a new update for the game, patch 1.52, went live, bringing with it several more fixes.

Patch 1.52 focuses mainly on fixes related to gameplay, quests, the open world, UI, and console-specific issues. Fixes for quest-related bugs – such as players purchasing an apartment makeover they previously own, hacking the Northside apartment before completing Act 1, completed quests reappearing in the journal log, and more – have been introduced. Open world-related bugs like summoned vehicles spawning far away from players and UI bugs like adding in a quest tag to fixer rewards have also been addressed.

Interestingly, some console-specific fixes have also been introduced, such as better memory improvement and crash fixes on new-gen consoles, minor UI optimizations, and more.

You can check out the full patch notes below.
