The highly anticipated DLC for Cyberpunk 2077, titled Phantom Liberty, has resurfaced with new footage and a confirmed release date. The upcoming DLC, set to launch on September 26, 2023, will bring V and Johnny Silverhand back for an exhilarating spy-thriller experience. Let’s dive into the intriguing plot and system requirements, along with pre-order information.
Cyberpunk 2077’s development journey was filled with challenges and delays. The game was initially announced in 2012 but faced numerous setbacks before its eventual release in December 2020.
Phantom Liberty’s official plot revolves around the crash-landing of the president of New USA in a lawless city called “Dogtown.” Ruled by Colonel Hansen and filled with jumpy militias, players will join forces with NUSA sleeper agent Solomon Reed, played by Idris Elba, to rescue President Myers. Expect a gripping adventure filled with twists and turns.
Next-Gen Focus:
Developed by CD Projekt Red, the creators of Cyberpunk 2077, Phantom Liberty is designed to take full advantage of next-gen hardware. Unfortunately, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players will not be able to enjoy the DLC’s spy-thriller action. However, for those with compatible platforms, new screenshots reveal glimpses of Idris Elba as Solomon Reed, Keanu Reeves as Johnny Silverhand, and other exciting characters.
Keanu Reeves’ appearance in Cyberpunk 2077 as the character Johnny Silverhand was kept a secret until E3 2019. Reeves made a surprise appearance during the conference, generating massive excitement among fans.
Pre-Orders and Incentives:
Pre-orders for Phantom Liberty are now available at a price of $29.99 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Players who pre-order the DLC will receive an exclusive in-game Quadra Sport R-7 Vigilante car, adding an extra edge to their Cyberpunk experience.
