As CD Projekt Red updated the Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements, there was little doubt that the game would become a little more demanding with the new additions coming with the 2.0 update and Phantom Liberty expansion. Earlier this week, CDPR's Filip Pierściński suggested that PC players should check if their CPUs are properly cooled, as usage is expected to reach 90% on an 8-core CPU.

Cyberpunk 2077 is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One worldwide. The Phantom Liberty expansion releases on September 26th on PC and current generation consoles only. You can learn more about the first and only expansion coming to the game by going here.
