Gamescom Opening Night Live 2023 features a new look at Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty gameplay

The Gamescom Opening Night Live 2023 clip of Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty began by providing a quick look at various new and redesigned perks and relic skill trees that are making their way to the game. Players got a look at Opportunist, Bullet Deflect, Spatial Mapping, Limiter Removal, Finisher: Bladerunner, and more.

New vehicles are also en route. However, one of the most interesting aspects was vehicular combat. While viewers only get a short glimpse at it, we can see players scanning vehicles, using mounted weaponry and other armaments to take them down. Furthermore, the police system has also been revamped, and the clip provided a fleeting clip of that.

The clip provided the salient points of the upcoming expansion as follows:

• A dangerous new district
• Dozens of new story quests and gigs
• Vehicle combat and mounted weaponry
• Revamped police system
• Combat AI overhaul
• Endless dynamic events and missions
• Redesigned cyberware and perks
• All-new relic skill tree and abilities
• Increased level cap
• 100+ new items - weapons, cyberware, and fashion

The major talking points, such as vehicular combat and revamped police system, were revealed earlier by CDPR while talking about Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty.

While many believe that the developers have salvaged the title after its disastrous launch through subsequent updates, the success or failure of the upcoming expansion will determine the lasting legacy of one of the most iconic video games of the past decade.
