Beyond the technical upgrades, Patch 2.2 also tweaks the upgraded photo mode that was recently introduced to the game with multiple fixes. Vehicle color customization is also being fine-tuned to filter out inconsistencies that have cropped up for vehicles that have CrystalCoat applied, and you'll be able to save randomized settings in the Character Creation suite for future runs. The other notable change in this patch regards Johnny Silverhand, as the Keanu Reeves-voiced character will be joining you as a ghostly passenger more often.

For more details, check out the full patch notes below. In other Cyberpunk 2077 news, CDPR recently added a quest based on the roguelike card game Balatro. The studio says it is applying the lessons learned from the troubled launch of that game to The Witcher 4. Former Cyberpunk developers at the studio Rebel Wolves have also shown off their debut game, The Blood of the Dawnwalker, a dark fantasy adventure set in a version of medieval Europe that has been conquered by vampires.
