Cyberpunk 2077 is getting two major updates in the form of the game’s only DLC, Phantom Liberty, coming on the 26th of September, and a major update, Update 2.0, landing a few days earlier on the 21st of September. Update 2.0 is bringing several new features including redesigned perks, skill trees, and new abilities that give players a variety of combat, stealth, and hacking strategies.

Amidst all the new features, there are five small changes to the overall experience that players might miss out on noticing. These fine details from the upcoming free details are listed down below for a quick reference.

Players Can Finally Reset Their Attribute Points Once

Attribute Points can now be reset and taken back to spend on chosen attributes

Players could not reset their attribute points previously so this should be a good welcome change. CD Projekt RED (CDPR) will now offer this option to gamers as there are lots of changes that have come to the attribute trees.

For example, the Cool column used to give players combat bonuses on every build but is now giving out bonuses for pistol builds, throwing blades, and other stealth builds. Players will see a “minus” sign to use when they feel they need to take back attribute points from a column they do not wish to increase and use it on chosen attributes. Players can also click on the Reset All button in the bottom left to completely reset attribute points.

Players Can Find Tons of New Clothes In Containers, Also Change Entire Appearance Now

With the arrival of the new DLC, Phantom Liberty, players will unlock several new attires for their characters. In the meantime, however, once Update 2.0 hits, players can find a ton of new clothes in containers in both Dogtown and in other locations strewn around the large map.

These will help players change their entire look including new scars and tattoos. This makes switching to a new look a lot easier.

Players Also Get Ten More Levels and Ten More Perk Points

Perk Points can also be reset and points refunded for use as players wish to

Clicking on the Attributes opens the Perks Tree. Here, players can see perks unlocked after spending attribute points. The more attribute points players spend, the more perks they can see being unlocked.

After the update, players can also take back their perk points by right-clicking on a perk they unlocked by mistake or wish to spend perk points on another skill. Just as players can reset attribute points, they can also reset perk points by using the Reset All button on the bottom right.

Players Can Find Cyberware Capacity Shards on Dead Enemies For Extra XP

Players can get to enemies they kill to loot several shards which will give them XP for playstyles. There are also Cyberware Capacity Shards which will increase the total Cyberware slots for players. A piece of Cyberware that used to give 12% more armor for 8 power will have an “iconic” version that’s a lot more expensive and also 30 power for 35% more armor

Using this loot will be a better way of upgrading without having to spend too much power. There will also be shards for Carrying Capacity shards.

Cyberpunk 2077 Players Can Find Tier 5 Components Spread Around The Map

Gamers who are looking for Tier 5 components to upgrade their gear can find these strewn around the map. Tier 5 components can help players upgrade their weapons to deal maximum damage and also level up their Cyberware Stat levels. One of the most common ways of getting them is to dismantle rare items, which can be clothes or weapons instead of selling them.

Update 2.0 will also bring along new radio stations, UI and UX improvements, and a new Police system to the game, which looks to revolutionise the game completely.
