The Edgerunners patch for Cyberpunk 2077 adds cross-progression
The Edgerunners patch for Cyberpunk 2077 adds cross-progression
Cross-progression, a racing mini-game, new cosmetics, and more are all added in Cyberpunk 2077’s ‘Edgerunners’ patch 1.6.
The major update takes the name of the upcoming Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime that will be available on Netflix next week on September 13th. The update also includes a slew of additional features, including enhanced quality-of-life improvements.
The cross-progression in Cyberpunk 2077 is finally here.
Edgerunners’ main feature is the ability for gamers to transfer saved files across platforms. Furthermore, saved files will be automatically uploaded to a cloud.
It’s a shame that this feature never existed until the Cyberpunk 2077 new-gen port was released. That being said, I suppose it’s better late than never. Nibbles the stray cat also enters Photo Mode.
A new mini-game is included in Cyberpunk 2077.
In Cyberpunk 2077, there is also a new arcade game called “Roach Race.” This mini-game may be played on various arcade machines in Night City.
You will be able to win cash prizes and items in Roach Race as well as be able to display your best scores on an in-game leaderboard.
Diverse weapons, cosmetics, gameplay improvements, as well as quality of life improvements have been included in the Edgerunners update for Cyberpunk 2077.
This is the final last-gen major update.
CDPR has also announced that this will be the last major Cyberpunk 2077 update for PS4 and Xbox One. However, I assume there will still be updates to address known issues.
The first major expansion for Cyberpunk 2077 was revealed with “Phantom City”, as well as Google Stadia in 2023.

The latest saves for every save type (Quick, Auto, Manual, etc.) will be automatically uploaded to the cloud.
After you login with your account, the feature will become available (from the Main Menu or the in-game Load Game menu). When it comes to console versions with regional limitations, cross-progression may be limited, you can find further information here.
