Cyberpunk 2077 dev explains why Phantom Liberty is the only expansion XboxDeveloper CD Projekt has explained why the Phantom Liberty will be the only DLC expansion for Cyberpunk 2077, calling it a \u201ctechnological issue.\u201d Though Cyberpunk 2077\u2019s launch was anything but smooth back in 2020, almost three years later the game has come quite a long way. After numerous patches and updates, players have come to enjoy the world of Night City that CD Projekt crafted. Fans who were able to finish the game\u2019s lengthy campaign also have the Phantom Liberty expansion to look forward to on September 26, 2023. However, we now know that Phantom Liberty will be the only expansion for Cyberpunk 2077, and the developer explained the reason for this in a recent investor Q&A. Why is Cyberpunk 2077 only getting one expansion? According to information relayed by VGC, CD Projekt\u2019s SVP of business development, Micha\u0142 Nowakowski explained that the decision the make Phantom Liberty the only expansion was a \u201ctechnological\u201d one. \u201cThis is the last time we\u2019re working on the Red Engine for the time being at least, and in the foreseeable future as you know we are working on the Unreal Engine from Epic. This was one of the key reasons why we decided this was the only one.\u201d CD Projekt fans may remember that the studio announced Witcher 4 will be made in Unreal Engine 5 instead of REDengine, which was used to develop the Witcher 2, Witcher 3, and Cyberpunk 2077. Nowakowski also made it clear that the decision to have only one expansion had nothing to do with how the game sold or \u201canything of the kind.\u201d \u201cThis is the only expansion of the game, and it has nothing to do with the numbers and how satisfied or not we are with sales\u2026\u201d Still, just because Phantom Liberty will be the game\u2019s only expansion doesn\u2019t mean it will be limited in scope. Early details surrounding Phantom Liberty seem to paint an entirely different picture, as the devs have claimed it will overhaul the entire game along with adding plenty of new content. Fans won\u2019t have to wait too much longer to dive into Phantom Liberty, as the expansion is set to launch on September 26, 2023, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
