Cyberpunk 2077 is coming to Blizzard’s Battle.net storefront on November 10, 2026, giving PC players another way to purchase CD Projekt RED’s open-world role-playing game. The release will include content from the free Edgerunners 2 Update (2.5), which recently added new missions, dual-wielding combat, mod support, and character customization options. The announcement concerns the game’s arrival on another PC platform, rather than the release of a new Cyberpunk title.
CD Projekt RED and Blizzard have confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077 will become available on Battle.net on November 10, 2026. The official Battle.net launch announcement confirms that PC players can purchase the base game, the Phantom Liberty expansion, or the Ultimate Edition, which includes both. This gives players another digital storefront through which to purchase the existing game.
Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.5, also called the Edgerunners 2 Update, was released on October 22, 2026, with additional platform rollouts following separately. The free update is now available on supported PC and Mac versions, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. According to the official Update 2.5 patch notes, the update introduces new missions, gameplay features, customization options, mod support, and technical improvements. Battle.net players will receive the update’s content when the game launches on November 10.
One of the main additions is Clampdown, a new side mission set before the events of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2. To unlock the mission, players must complete The Heist, finish two gigs for Wakako, and wait for a message from her. The mission introduces characters connected to the animated series and offers a five-piece gear set inspired by Weak “King” Kingsley. The update also features King’s distinctive revolver.
Combat has also received an important upgrade through the new dual-wielding system. Players can equip two Power-category pistols or revolvers after unlocking the Double Trouble perk in the Cool skill tree. Four additional supporting perks allow players to develop different combat strategies around this feature. However, dual-wielding does not apply to every weapon type in the game.
Character customization has also expanded with five new Glamdoc shops across Night City. These locations allow players to change the appearance of cybernetic equipment, including Mantis Blades, Gorilla Arms, Monowire, and the Projectile Launch System. The update introduces 40 cyberware styles, with additional options for adjusting colors and designs. This gives players more ways to personalize their characters without changing the equipment’s main gameplay functions.
Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.5 introduces cross-platform mod support through mod.io integration. Players on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 can use an in-game menu to find and install a supported selection of community-created mods. However, achievements and trophies cannot be earned while playing from a modified save file on consoles. For more details about the update’s platform experience, TechBonafide has covered Update 2.5’s features and reported Nintendo Switch 2 problems.
Update 2.5 introduces another side mission called Welcome to Paradise, which takes players on a guided journey through Night City narrated by its founder, Richard Night. The mission becomes available after completing The Heist and reaching Street Cred level 15. Players can also discover 12 new Minor Arcana tarot cards, unlock additional clothing options, and listen to HKGN 102.0 FM, a radio station featuring music from the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners series. These additions provide more activities for returning players.
Update 2.5 also brings graphics improvements, including ray-tracing optimizations, improved HDR rendering, and support for NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 on compatible hardware. The update introduces additional frame-generation capabilities where supported, alongside performance improvements for PlayStation 5 Pro. Console players also receive a field-of-view slider, while several gameplay issues have been fixed. For readers interested in how these graphics technologies affect smoothness and responsiveness, TechBonafide’s guide to frame generation vs native FPS explains the important differences.
The renewed attention around Cyberpunk 2077 is also connected to the arrival of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, which premiered on Netflix on October 20, 2026. According to Netflix’s official series information, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 tells a new, standalone 10-episode story set in the Cyberpunk universe. Its release has helped bring fresh attention to the game’s setting, characters, and futuristic technology.
Players who already own Cyberpunk 2077 on a supported platform can access Update 2.5 without purchasing an additional expansion. The official Update 2.5 FAQ confirms that the update is free for owners of the base game and does not require Phantom Liberty or the Ultimate Edition. Players can also continue their existing progress without starting a new game. The November 10 announcement concerns the existing Cyberpunk 2077 game arriving on Battle.net, not the release of its planned sequel, Cyberpunk 2.
Cyberpunk 2077’s November 10 Battle.net launch will give PC players another storefront option, with Update 2.5 content included from the start. Existing players on supported platforms can already access the free update, making the upcoming Battle.net release the main development to watch as the game continues reaching new audiences.
