Review
Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition presents an impressive package, especially with the inclusion of the Phantom Liberty expansion. Players are invited back to the neon-lit streets of Night City, enriched by vast improvements from the Update 2.0 overhaul, including dynamic skill trees and enhanced AI. The ultimate experience boasts a narrative that combines espionage with captivating world-building, allowing both new players and returning veterans to find something to love. However, while the ambitious vision of a perfect RPG has been partially realized, some of the promised depth has fallen short. NPC interactions feel less impactful, and in terms of visuals, the Switch 2 version may falter compared to its rivals, though it remains technically sound. Despite its flaws, the compelling storytelling and stunning visuals elevate this edition to a must-have for RPG aficionados and Cyberpunk fans alike.Background information

Websites noted how well the game performs on the new hardware, comparing it favorably to traditional console versions. The mixed sentiment on the overall RPG elements, which were seen as underwhelming at launch, continues to color discussions around the game, but the pathway to redemption through updates and expansions is evident.Screenshots
