Cyberpunk 2077’s new 2.2 update is out now, and it adds a lot of new ways to customize your character and your cars as well as some improvements to photo mode.

For character customization, developer CD Projekt Red is introducing a bunch of additional options to make your V, as detailed in a blog post. One of those changes is an option to have horrifying / awesome double eyes:

The character creator is getting an improved randomizer that has a “plain-to-punk” slider, too. “Whether you’re aiming for an understated, casual look or a bold, edgy style for your V, you can now use the slider to strike the perfect balance,” CD Projekt Red says.

CD Projekt Red has also expanded the ability to change a car’s paint job to cars to more of the in-game brands. And if you see a paint job you like on another car, you’ll be able to scan it so you can use it later. But perhaps the best car-related change with update 2.2 is that Johnny Silverhand (played by Keanu Reeves) will now sometimes show up in the passenger seat while you’re driving.

Update 2.2 also brings some changes to photo mode, including a free camera and the ability to add characters to your shot.

Cyberpunk 2077 launched four years ago today, and while it had an infamously rocky launch, the game is now in an excellent place. It’s coming to Macs with Apple Silicon in early 2025.
