CD Projekt Red, the development team behindCyberpunk 2077, which is perhaps known more for its rocky launch than the story and gameplay within, has just released patch 1.10 for the game on PlayStation 4 as well as PlayStation 5 through backward compatibility. The update is aimed at fixing many of the issues that have plagued the open world game since it was released, such as frequent crashing and many gameplay elements not functioning properly, in the hopes of givingCyberpunk 2077a second life.
While a lot of people who purchasedCyberpunk 2077for the PlayStation 4 have returned their copy of the game, and despite the fact that a lucky few may have managed tokeep their copy ofCyberpunk 2077after returning it, this patch seems aimed at slowing or stopping those returns by making the game more playable. Also addressed in the 1.10 patch are some of the more meme-able issues thatCyberpunk 2077has had, such as characters simply disappearing mid-scene, doors not functioning, and invisible walls.

Notes for the patch detail several instances where quest prompts simply would not spawn, an unexpected player action might cause needed elements of a mission to not function properly, and even an issue where an achievement would not unlock. These have all been fixed with patch 1.10.
