Cyberpunk 2077 lands on PlayStation Plus with a catch

Cyberpunk 2077 has been around for a while, and it often gets attractive price cuts. However, PlayStation owners who have been reluctant to purchase the game can finally give it a try. But you'll need an active PlayStation Plus subscription.

And no, Essential won't do. It has to be Extra, Premium, or Deluxe. As is the case with every game that lands on the subscription service, Cyberpunk 2077 will be yours to keep as long as a subscription is active. Only the base game is included in the offer. Its DLC, Phantom Liberty, has to be purchased separately. It is an essential part of the Cyberpunk 2077 experience and highly recommended as an add-on purchase.

For all intents and purposes, Cyberpunk 2077 can be considered an end-of-life product, although CD Projekt Red says it will get one more piece of DLC soon. It might not be as expansive as Phantom Liberty, but it will almost certainly have some fun stuff. Those who were put off by Cyberpunk 2077's lacklustre showing on the PS4 will be pleased to know the game has come a long way since launch.

Many game mechanics have been overhauled, including the skill tree, weapons, vehicles, and more. The functional metro line that was cut out of the base game also makes a comeback. It can take full advantage of the PlayStation 5's enhanced capabilities, but PS5 Pro-specific improvements are unlikely.
