Full article:

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is an open-world RPG containing two powerful adventures: the base game of Cyberpunk 2077, taking place in the dark future of Night City, and Phantom Liberty, a spy-thriller story set in the walled-off district of Dogtown. Players take on the role of V, a cyber-enhanced mercenary, and embark on a fight for survival filled with story-defining decisions, action-packed gameplay, and unforgettable characters, including rockerboy Johnny Silverhand (played by Keanu Reeves) and FIA sleeper agent Solomon Reed (played by Idris Elba).

This new release is the perfect way to experience every story of the dark future; it also contains the free Update 2.0, which overhauled many of the game’s systems, introducing dynamic skill trees, high-octane vehicle combat, and enhanced enemy and police AI — as well as adding new weapons, vehicles, and clothes. The release is bolstered with a set of previously released digital goodies available as part of the “My Rewards” program, available to all who register.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will be available for purchase digitally on December 5th. The physical version’s release is planned to start on December 5th in select markets through local distributors.

More information about Cyberpunk 2077, its spy-thriller expansion Phantom Liberty, Update 2.0, and the upcoming Ultimate Edition can be found on the official game website, Facebook, and X.

At least they didnt say game of the year edition.

 

[acm2000]

amazing game and add-on, but save the money and get the cd keys online

Cyberpunk 2077: Now With Fewer Bugs Edition

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Here are the XSX and PS5 covers from the thread I've made earlier today:

 

[adamsapple]

Full priced?

 

[SportsFan581]

Glad I didn't pull the trigger on a physical version, waiting for this to go on sale will be a much better buy since the expansion is included.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[Bernoulli]

 

[Mr Moose]

Glad I didn't pull the trigger on a physical version, waiting for this to go on sale will be a much better buy since the expansion is included.

It was $10 with a metal case.

 

[SportsFan581]

^ Not at the time I was looking to buy it. $20 was the best I could find, with another $20 for the expansion.

 

[Fake]

Is this a joke?

 

[Punished Miku]

I'll consider this when it's $15-20.

 

[Musilla]

The physical version that will sell three copies is the most complete.

 

[adamsapple]

Well that's unusual, usually it's the Xbox SKU that has the code and PS has the content on disc.

A surprise, but a welcome one.

^ Not at the time I was looking to buy it. $20 was the best I could find, with another $20 for the expansion.

The physical version was selling for as low as $9.99 before but just like Witcher, they increased the price after the then 'next gen patch' came out.

 

[StereoVsn]

It was $10 with a metal case.

Yep, I picked it up way back in Best Buy fire sale with couple of metal cases for grant total of like $12 ($2 extra for second steelbook case).

Also, not having expansion in disk for PS5 version is simply .

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

So the definitive physical edition is Xbox only. What a fucking joke.

 

[stn]

Might get this depending on the price as I haven't purchased the DLC yet anyway (and I want to).

 

[StereoVsn]

So the definitive physical edition is Xbox only. What a fucking joke.

I really don’t understand the reasoning. Hell, PS5 supports 100gb disks unlike Xbox.

Like what the heck.

 

[Sleepwalker]

I'll keep my free launch copy.

 

[SF Kosmo]

Don't much care about a new physical edition, especially since this is a game I am going to play on PC 99% of the time.

But for the hold outs or whatever, this game is really fucking good now, and the expansion is great too.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[Fbh]

The DLC being a digital code on PS5 completely kills the appeal of this new version.

 

[Deerock71]

I just bought it on sale for the XSS yesterday.

 

[KiteGr]

FINALLY!!!
Someone wrote a date in the correct format!

Edit: Skipping it for not including the DLC on the disk.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[LordCBH]

What a retard brain decision holy shit.

 

[adamsapple]

"Technical requirements" aka we did not want to pay Sony the certification fee

 

[Mr Moose]

Should just remove the Ultimate Edition part from the PS5 sleeve, because it isn't.

 

[LordCBH]

"Technical requirements" aka we did not want to pay Sony the certification fee

This. Horizon has the dlc included on disc with the complete edition. Technical limitation my ass.

 

[StereoVsn]

Somehow Witcher managed to include the DLCs on disk but Cyberpunk has technical “reasons”. Get the f out of here, CDPR.

 

[Ozriel]

The physical version that will sell three copies is the most complete.

It’s not included in the PC disc

 

[Musilla]

Another genius here

 

[Hugare]

"Technical requirements" aka we did not want to pay Sony the certification fee

One more version for them to update everytime there's a new patch

They probably said "fuck it, nah". But this will bite them in the ass in some way.

They lost a sale with me due to this reason. I like having everything on disk.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Well if the XSX version has everything on the discs I may as well pick that one. Not gonna support that PS5 fuckery, especially when their explanation makes zero sense based on previous releases (including complete version of The Witcher 3).

 

[adamsapple]

At least they're not charging $70 for it.

 

[Bloobs]

 

[kingwingin]

What a joke

 

[diffusionx]

Regardless of what is and isn't on the disc, it's a full package of one of the best games of this gen. Should be considered a must-play.

 

[alucard0712_rus]

Hope there will be a big patch!

 

[Mozzarella]

"Technical requirements" aka we did not want to pay Sony the certification fee

Can you explain that? i dont know what this is.

I have a Disc for Witcher 3 GOTY edition it contains everything 16 DLCs + 2 Expansions.
What is the problem here? why can't they put it all on Disc Cyberpunk 2.0 & Phantom Liberty. Seems like a missed opportunity to give a digital code for the expansion?

I think it's just a simple case of them not wanting to make a new SKU / new set of trophies / pay new cert fee for the new SKU to Sony.

I have no idea if the process is different / more lenient for Xbox cert, but this is what most people think might be the reason.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

So how is this different from the bundle on steam? Will it get a new, lower price?

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

So how is this different from the bundle on steam? Will it get a new, lower price?

Yeah, it will drop to $60. This will lead to better sales/discounts in the future since the base price for this new bundle is lower.

You know that bit about requiring a new set of trophies is kinda of bull since the recently released Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition doesn't come with a separate trophy list. The other stuff may very well be true though and needs to be streamlined.

 

[Kyo]

The DLC being a digital code on PS5 completely kills the appeal of this new version.

Yep, I find this unacceptable.

So why should anyone pick this over the old PS4 disc now if it's not complete?

Almost no reason to get it, tbh. Maybe pick it you dig the new key art on the cover, otherwise .

I suppose the only redeeming factor will be that the disc will contain the updated base game, rather than the awful PS4 version that was initially released in 2020.

 

[Umbral]

I would have finally bought a copy of the game but not without the expansion on-disc for PS5. Miss me with that. I’ll keep my money.

 

[RyanEvans21]

No Amazon yet?

 

[Duchess]

The base Cyberpunk is regularly under £15 on Amazon, on PlayStation. Buy the DLC in a sale, and it's probably cheaper than this Ultimate Edition.
