CD Projekt Red isn’t entirely done with Cyberpunk 2077 yet, as the studio has announced it will get an all-new edition ahead of Christmas. Dubbed Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition, this new game version will be released digitally and physically and have all pieces of content, including Phantom Liberty, wrapped in a single package. 

As announced on X, the new Ultimate Edition will include every major update, including Phantom Liberty and its 2.0 update. There’s no news on pricing, though based on the PlayStation store bundling of the base game and expansion, it’ll likely cost the full $70. This version of the game will be available in digital and physical formats for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Since the expansion was never released on last-gen, this game version is current-gen only.  

There’s no word on whether it will feature its own achievement list, much like The Witcher 3 Complete Edition does separately from the original release. Additionally, while all versions are getting a physical version, only the Xbox version will have everything on the disc, whilst PS5 and PC will come with a downloading code for Phantom Liberty as clarified by CD Projekt Red’s Global Community Director, Marcin Momot. 

Just to clarify, it's on the disc on Xbox. PS5 has a code included and PC is downloadable as well.

This is a surprise, as Phantom Liberty and the 2.0 update launched just a few months ago. A physical re-release with everything included wasn’t on the radar of most, and certainly not this soon. Given that Christmas is next month, we aren’t surprised that the studio is pushing for more sales, though from launch week numbers, Phantom Liberty was already proving to be a big success. 

If you haven’t jumped into Cyberpunk 2077, the Ultimate Edition may be the perfect way of doing so, especially seeing that update 2.0 has overhauled even the base experience. So much so that I considered it, and Phantom Liberty is one of the best gaming experiences this year in our Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty review. Just something to ponder about if you’re on the fence still.

Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition launches December 5 for PC, PS5, and XBox Series X|S.
