What you need to know

Cyberpunk 2077 is a great game, but is undeniably flawed (especially on consoles). The latest update aiming to resolve these issues is the 1.2 patch update, which CD Projekt RED has been working on for months now. After lots of waiting, the 1.2 patch update for Cyberpunk 2077 is finally here. At least, it is for PC and consoles.

Cyberpunk 2077 players on PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PS5, and PS4 can now go and install the 1.2 patch update for Cyberpunk 2077. Console players, especially, should notice a massive improvement in overall stability, performance, and reliability after installing the 1.2 patch update. If you want the full list of changes, you can check out the 1.2 patch update changelog for the breakdown.

Cyberpunk 2077 players on Google Stadia will have to wait a little bit longer to get the 1.2 patch update. CDPR promises the update will arrive sometime later this week.

The road to redemption for Cyberpunk 2077 still isn't finished, but hopefully this update will resolve the lion's share of problems that players have been facing in Night City. It's clear from looking at the changelog that this update is positively massive.

If it weren't for the plethora of bugs and issues, especially on base consoles, Cyberpunk 2077 certainly would've made it onto our list of best games for Xbox.
