Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Out Now on PS5, Addresses PS5 Save Corruption, Improves Performance, and More

Update: Patch 2.01 for Cyberpunk 2077 is available to download now on PS5, weighing in at around 5.5GB. CD Projekt Red has also published the full patch notes, which we've included below.

Before you browse, though, please keep in mind that the notes allude to numerous missions in Phantom Liberty — some of which take place towards the end of the expansion. We wouldn't say they're out-and-out spoilers, but you might want to be careful all the same.

Original Story: Patch 2.01 for Cyberpunk 2077 (and Phantom Liberty) will be available to download from tomorrow (that's the 5th October), if all goes to plan. That info comes courtesy of always informative community director Marcin Momot. These updates usually arrive around the afternoon in the UK and Europe — which is the morning in the US.

As a quick refresher, 2.01 should address an especially nasty issue that's been causing corrupted save files on PS5. It'll also up the volume of car radios (yes!) and improve performance in Dogtown — the DLC district.

We should get the full patch notes tomorrow — and we'll update this article when we do — but for now, the initial changes are as follows:

• The distorted effect caused by selecting a specific dialogue option when talking to Johnny at the end of Automatic Love will no longer persist on the screen.
• V will no longer die in The Heist by falling through the elevator when riding to the 42nd floor with low FPS.
• Fixed an issue where the UI could show controller inputs when playing with keyboard and mouse.
• Made it possible to properly switch to arms cyberware by cycling through weapons.
• Gig: Breaking News will be properly triggered after approaching the quest area.
• Vehicle radio volume will be adjusted so it's not too quiet when compared to other sounds in the game.
• Addressed the issue of corrupted saves on PlayStation by increasing the maximum save file size limit. Note: this won't fix the saves corrupted before the update. If you're experiencing the issue, keep a working save (e.g. resave it as manual save) till 2.01 arrives.
• Performance improvements for both PC and consoles, especially in the Dogtown area.
