The Twitter account PlayStation Game Size thinks Cyberpunk 2077’s next-gen upgrade for the PS5 will be released in the weeks between mid-February and early March. If that’s true, then most likely the Xbox Series X and S and PC upgrades will follow during that time as well.

PlayStation Games Size placed Sunday cover art reportedly associated with the native version of Cyberpunk 2077 for the PlayStation 5. The account added that this next-gen version will be released between mid-February and early March† This Twitter account, as the name suggests, often provides early information about file sizes and release dates of upcoming games. It is often accurate information.

A release of the next-gen upgrades in the said period would mean competing with titles such as Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring. In fact, these upgrades for the PS5, Xbox Series consoles and PC should have been released at the end of last year, but in October last year it became clear that that would not be achieved. Then the first quarter of this year was mentioned as the new release period.

There are few details about the next-gen version yet, but CD Projekt RED previously indicated that this version will contain graphical upgrades that capitalize on the potential of the new consoles, in addition to the addition of a number of system-level improvements. The developer immediately said that these systems are not about revolutionary improvements.

The new version of Cyberpunk 2077 will be released as a standalone game, but will be available for free as an upgrade to players who already own the title. Cyberpunk 2077 was released on December 10, 2020 for PCs and consoles and was widely criticized for bugs and performance issues. Since then, the developer has made several hotfixes and major updates. Simultaneously with the next-gen upgrade, the major patch 1.5 should also be released, which is also seen as a ‘soft relaunch’ that should implement the necessary fixes for issues in the game.
