Cyberpunk 2077 1.3 patch notes: Free DLC, minimap fix, Clouds overhaul, Tabula e-Rasa shards, more

Almost four months have passed since the release of Cyberpunk 2077 patch 1.2, and CD Projekt RED is finally ready to release the next big update, patch 1.3.

Despite numerous fixes and improvements, the game, which has been one of the biggest disappointments in 2020, still needs a lot of improvements, both in regard to the game's performance and stability, as well as in terms of many promised-but-never-added features and gameplay mechanics.

In May of this year, CD Projekt president and CEO Adam Kiciński said that they "intend to live up to what we promised our gamers" in regard to Cyberpunk 2077, and during the developer live stream held on 17th August, devs have promised that they are still working hard on a lot of features that players want to see being added.

Update 1.3, which CD Projekt RED says is the biggest one to date, will bring a lot of fixes for Cyberpunk 2077, including the long-requested minimap fix, which will now zoom out when you are driving the car, a button for an easier way to reallocate the distribution of Perk points, lore entries alongside quests, countless bugs fixes, and much, much more, which you can read below in full patch notes.

With patch 1.3 the game will also receive its first of many free DLCs. This first free DLC is purely cosmetic and it includes a new look for Johnny Silverhand, a new jacket for V, and a new car.

FREE DLC content

• Johnny Silverhand's Alternative Appearance – can be enabled in Settings in the "Additional Content" tab.
• Multilayered Syn-Leather Deltajock Jacket, Luminescent Punk Jacket - both available in the stash in V's apartment after receiving a message from Viktor after completing The Ride. They're of Rare/Iconic quality by default, Crafting Specs to craft a higher quality will also be unlocked.
