With multiple updates and hotfixes now under its belt, is Cyberpunk 2077 is now on its way to receiving Patch 1.3, its next major update. While a release date has not been shared yet, today, the studio provided an update on some of the changes heading for the game soon.

In 1.3, the minimap is getting a much-needed revamp, with the studio adding a zooming out element for when V gets into a car. This should alleviate the blasting past intended turns problem many are having since launch.

Another major change is the addition of perk reallocation. Following the update, players will be able to reset the perks they have selected at any point using in-game cash and put the freed-up perk points towards another build. It seems the cost associated with the reset will depend on V's current level, like in other RPGs.



Also, arriving as a much smaller change, the Matching Procedure option given to players when they visit the Clouds establishment for a quest has been tweaked. Hopefully, players will no longer be so confused when selecting the doll (Angel or Skye) they want. Essentially, images of the two options will hover more prominently as the dialog progresses after the change.



Keep in mind these highlights won't be the only changes present in the 1.3 update, with CD Projekt RED adding that "they’re not the biggest ones and there’ll be more to come."

Today's update details came in the form of an in-universe news report. Find the complete blog post here. For those looking for the usual patch notes, they will be landing closer to the update's launch, which should be quite soon. CD Projekt RED will also be hosting a developer livestream at 18:00 CEST on its Twitch channel tomorrow, August 17, to discuss the update in detail.
